re: Why can't the receivers catch the ball?

Because they constantly try catching the ball with their arms and chest instead of their hands. It’s the most basic thing they teach a WR in pee wee football. It’s also incredibly easy to catch a football with gloves. Burns my arse every week as a guy who played WR.

J Bro 12 is right on target. All year, our WRs “gator arm”. Watch Jefferson’s drop in the 1Q from a perfectly thrown ball from Burrow as a classic example. Ball glances off is chest without his arms being extended while running full speed. And he has been our most productive WR this year. Coach E claimed the strength of this team would be our WRs and raved about the coaching of that position group. I for one, was woefully underwhelmed.
