But now, I'll ask a question here (that I know that you or anyone else will never clearly answer by examples or what not). But I'll ask it anyhow. How many snaps has Kmet taken each as a pass catcher and as a blocker? If Kmet is better than what he's shown on the field (in admittedly limited opportunities), but he's still not playing anyway, then that's on Nagy. I'm about done with both Nagy AND Pace, which I will explain in greater detail later. But to claim Graham actually holds the offense back (which I know you haven't done, but keeping things in order...), is ridiculous. Is Graham great? No. He has contributed, though, which makes him a good signing. And completely outside of Graham, and any arguments about his value, or lack thereof, to the team--Ginn should NOT have been cut. At least, not now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Tyty should have been an editor in chief of the Onion or some Newsweek mag, the titles are catchy AF. I cant hate on Ginn being overpaid to suck at a sport that was done with him a few years ago. He got money, bad move on Pace's part. I was under the assumption that Graham was well known to be a goal line target only. He's great at boxing out for the high back-shoulder fade. He isn't athletic anymore and never could block so his numbers aren't shocking at all. Although I thought his catch percentage would be higher I also assumed he would be a goaline priority and dump off specialist. But him being on pace for almost 100 targets by season's end? Ridiculous and embarrassing. I've clearly shown I'm not a fan of Kmet but you cant tell me he is behind Graham by so much that he only has warranted 8 targets. Hell put the kid in the slot and see if he can help block on outside zones even, it's not like we're doing anything well in the run game already. If they overload a side or create a big mismatch in the passing game then let Foles audible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, not now. What has he contributed? He is really bad. He offers next to nothing in the pass game and is the worst blocker I have ever seen. He is a liability. We are getting to the point where an OLmen could do what he does in the passing game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginn has certainly proven to be a waste of a roster spot all season. The disinterest was evident. Robinson, Mooney, Miller, Ridley, Patterson, and Harris.. and we're worried about Ginn being released now? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindyCity Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Harris will need to be permanently moved onto the roster. Keeping Ridley inactive so Ginn can do nothing is just hurting a young players development. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindyCity Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Just play Kmet. The blocking will be significantly better. He can’t do less in the passing game than Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of his problems would go away if someone else was at least consulting on play calls and changes, or handling some part of his job. He's a little like Trubisky in that I think he gets overwhelmed and doesn't process things quickly enough when the pressure is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
