Time to bench Cain in favor of Overton/Higgins...

and could work Trevion Thompson in too.Too many bad drops in key situations, gotta catch the ball when your open when you're a WR

I think Cain is too surprised when the long ball actually comes close to him.

Just have to have consistency. That's why we go to Renfrow, we know where he's going to be and that he is going to catch it.
Cain is a rollercoaster with high highs and low lows.

laugh all you want, but his dropped passes has cost us points...

He hasn't played good this season, just a fact. Might not happen, but he needs to step his game up either way. And maybe less playing time will light a fire

Cain is not getting replaced as a starter.
Not even worth discussing.

In fairness, KB has underthrown a lot of balls in his direction. But his drop today was inexcusable.

there was another long pass he should have caught...

He dropped a long catch last week that was accurate. Some times KB isn't accurate, but Cain has dropped accurate passes all season

week in the office, and the main topic was Cain's struggles and his lack of effort on 50-50 balls. He has dropped more passes than he has caught over the last three ballgames. He has not secured any 50-50 balls over the same period.
Thompson, Overturn, Higgins, McCloud, Rogers and Renfrow give me more comfort at this point.

I agree on the effort. If the ball isn't on time or on a dime, he quits. We need him to put his body on the line to make the catch. That's been the difference in Nuk, Watkins and Williams. They'd go up or out to make the grab.

Is this what happens when you haven't ever played the game but your talking game is on fleek ?

King is right here.,, make Cain split time with Ray Ray and put T on the outside. Cain lacks solid WR fundamentals and has gotten by on pure athletic ability. Deon is a great weapon and should continue being used in the game plan, but his role should be tweaked imo.

My question is what happened to getting him the ball short?
Nov 12, 2017, 7:45 AM

Such as the screen in the natty... I know he is the 9 man, but he is an elite athlete and dangerous with the ball in his hands. He is perfectly capable of doing damage with an end-around or a screen like Ray Ray.
