also he was only targeted 3 times. 2 pass interferences and a td. granted wasnt alot of passed thrown period but for our no.1 wr to only get 3 targets and didnt even play much in the first half is alarming.

That is true. A few times he was triple teamed which is why you saw single coverage on petterson over the middle and becham. There was no safety over the top on the side opposite randle.

There was a long stretch where he was not on the field. Even in 3 wide.

He failed a drug test and was working in at the #3 QB spot.

He barely played the first quarter at all. It was Beckham and Boone

He came out the tunnel last before the game and he seemed to be limping to me.

that is what i noticed. i understand him being doubled alot but he wasnt even on the field. if he was being doubled seems to me like you would want him out there to open it up for everyone else. we didnt throw much to even take advantage of it anyhow.

I think I heard on the radio post game that the sideline reporter had spoken to trainers who said that RR was 100 percent healthy and his normal gate gave the appearance of a limp.

He is the best player on offense, yet I saw him on the sideline alot in the first half. Not sure what the coaches are thinking, but he needs to be on the field. You don't rotate one of the best receivers in the country with a true freshman. He needs to play as much as possible.

Yea i didnt understand that at all. he showed alot of emotion after the td. maybe it was frustration.

He has to be hurt. No excuse for him to only be in every 3rd play.
