We are sorely missing Brandin Cooks downfield. Ginn's been great but we don't really have a number 1 receiver and don't say MT is it because he's not. We should give Calvin Johnson a call.

Crucify me but I'm just speaking facts. Picture how better we would be with a legitimate every down receiving threat with this running game.

Stop overreacting.

Get Lattimore back and we will be fine.

Also, LB is a bigger problem than WR.

Seriously.

Anyway, there aren't any better options out there than what we have on our roster. We'll have to address this problem in the offseason.

No ones overreacting, just stating facts.

Then where was this thread during the 8 game win streak. Lose 1 game to a really damn good team and people lose their shite. All of this goes away with a win over Carolina and we are still in great position

Besides, what good is bringing a guy off the street going to do right now? If a guy is still a FA right now its because he's probably not any good.

Sorry but all I see is opinions and no facts. Just saying. Continue your melt if you must.

Btw if I had to choose between Cooks and Ram then the easy answer would be Ram. Saints are better off bc of the Cooks trade (and so are the Pats).

I take issue with play calling/execution more than anything. No reason we couldn't have been able to hit more slants on the gazillion third and short we had against their man coverage.

We don't have a slot WR. Brandin Cooks is not that. Ginn and Thomas are not the problem.

Rams played Seahawks style of defense yesterday. They grabbed the WRs to slow them down and rarely got called for it. That is why our WRs were not getting separation.

Willie Snead is a slot WR...and a damn good one that isn't being utilized. Don't ask me why. But the WRs are not the problem. The play action didn't work because the Saints did not run the ball early. Rams had no reason to react. Not to mention drew missed Ginn on a deep ball that could have been a TD.

Is he a #1 receiver? Ok let's blame Bree's he can't make any WR an All Pro anymore but watch come draft time. Wishing the first 3 picks we'll draft a WR.

P.S. After we win next week I'll post this again.. then say I'm melting

Stating facts?? Literally the only thing you tried to pass off as fact is that MT13 is not a WR1. Not only is that an opinion but it's a stupid one. Believer my arse, more like chicken little... how many receptions does MT13 have?
