Yeah I read that and immediately thought of this thread. Would be a viable reason. But why would a coach tell a player to stop doing something that’s made him successful? No one would ever tell AP how to run.
No one is ignoring that. You’re just not understanding the topic. But keep saying the same thing . . . makes you look really smart.
Understand what you're saying. You're just wrong. You keep ignoring any reason why he might not have that extra step because it doesn't suit your argument. How many times has he legitimately had space to actually break a run? Very few. This after weeks of being completely used in the wrong way and still behind the worst line in the league. But keep ignoring everything, it makes you look really smart.
I don’t think you’re reading the entire thread. All of us have repeatedly acknowledged that his surrounding talent is poor and that the coaching has been awful. We are talking specifically about the rare moments that he has had opportunities in space. And he has. A lot of them? No. No one said he has had a lot. But he likely has 2-3 per week on average. At this juncture that’s likely somewhere around 20-30 chances to flash and he’s not really done it in those occurrences. That’s what we are talking about. I don’t know that I can explain that any more simply.
Apologies for the snide remark at the end.
Not necessarily. I’d like to see him do it against elite talent too. I don’t think anyone would argue there’s elite talent on the raiders defense.
