re: Is James Wright our best receiver?

no, that's when les finally realized obj wasn't a go-to wr and stopped calling every pass for him

Not sure if serious...

1) Les doesn't call the plays... in certain situations yes he does. But on the normal downs, no he doesn't (99% of the time)

2) Just because a WR is the first read on a play doesn't mean the play was called for him. And the only reason a certain WR is the first read is because of his WR position. I have heard different terms on the teams I played for as to how the different receiver's positions were labeled. Basically you have a WR 1, WR 2, WR3, and so on. Additionally... just because a certain receiver is the "WR 1" doesn't mean he is always the first read.

Will the coaches sometimes say, hey look for X to be open on this play? Yea sure, but thats based on what they are seeing from the D in game. And it does NOT mean they are telling the QB to throw it to the receiver no matter what.
