I never thought I would say this about Juwan but since Shough has become the starter Juwan has been a stud. I believe he needs to be a considerable part of the gameplan. He is as physically gifted as any other tight end in the league and has cleaned up a lot of the issues he struggled with earlier in his career.

This offense needs to establish an identity and I believe Juwan (and Estime) can be a big part that. Doing so sets up Olave and Tyson for big plays on the outside as the safety's get pulled down.

I agree. The play calling is baffling. Theres no rythm. Of course ghat could be due to the atrocious O line play

We've had success throwing to Fant, too. Unfortunately, I think the TEs are behind asked to help the OL alot, which takes them out of the passing game.

I think playing into that can help the pass game. We saw it today where it was a heavy run look and it was completely designed for Fant. Have them both in there, show heavy and pass to those guys. They are weapons because they are both effective blockers so it makes things very unpredictable for the defense. Ultimately the more unpredictable it becomes, both run vs pass, it benefits both tremendously. Sets up playaction to those outside WR's like nothing else as well.

Juwan Johnson is boo Williams. He’s not a starting TE on any serious team.

It’s hard not to be smug when someone says this:

quote:

He is as physically gifted as any other tight end in the league


As a converted WR you would think he would be in the upper echelon of receiving TEs, yet he is a bottom 3rd as a receiver. Like in 2025 when he led all TE’s in drops.

As a blocker, he is perennially one of the worst in the league. A complete joke.

There are good NFL teams with multiple TEs on their roster better than Johnson. I’m glad they drafted Delp in an attempt to eventually end this charade with Johnson.

Just understand what you’re watching. A team, who over the last few years have not had even an NFL-average WR room. Giving Johnson(again, a former WR) the prime opportunity to get garbage yards & fluff up his receiving stats.

The dude being 2nd on the Saints in targets last year is one of the exact reasons they were a 6 win team. Someone has to catch passes. But you’ll see 77-889-3 & think he’s Shannon sharpe. No! This is a reason the saints suck, my guy.
