Should Moncrief be given another chance this week??

    Moncrief is not a #1 WR. Not here, no elsewhere.

    We have 3 young #2WR (JJ, DJ, JW). Yes, JJ should be a #1, but isn't so far.
    Moncrief is not gonna beat any of them.

    If you ask me, it's much more probable that one of our current #2 WRs jumps to #1 than Moncrief.

    Holy crap! If AQL and I can agree on something, it must be correct! :)

    Too much at stake for the risk of dropping passes in a big game. Maybe the bye Week we can give him an opportunity. If he performs well during that contest we could inch him closer to the sideline during the rest of the season. Sub him in during Victory Celebration plays to maybe build his confidence back up.

    The stars do align at certain points but it is a rare occurance. we should speak of this in hushed tones like the dream that was Rome.

    People assume we would get a 3rd, no one knows the actual formula.

    I don't believe we will get a 3rd until I see it happen.

    He should have been sleeping with the jugs gun.
    He needs to earn his playing time. Show the coaching staff that you can catch in traffic.

    I know this is true but I don't understand why? Can someone explain how this works?

    Personally, I would. The guy is talented. But I would yank him if he drops another damn pass.

    Not much of an opportunity, if you only play him during the bye weeks! :blink:

    What choice do they have. Ideally you’d like JW to step up and maybe he will once they open things up for Mason. Right now it’s almost all short passes and JWs air yards is 17.

    Problem is I just don’t think he is getting open. If you can’t get separation in this league, you are DOA.

    Agree on what choices do we have. What I want to know because you can't see it on TV, is JW getting any separation, maybe someone who has been to the games live can shed some light. If he is getting some separation and MR looks for JuJu first then Dontae or a tight end/running back and dosent' have the time or quick enough yet to see all his reads.

    If we are winning 35-7 in the 4th quarter, yeah bring him in and throw to him when he is open.

    He may be healthy enough to play, but that isn't the same as healthy - fingers back to 100%.
    (If he is still a healthy scratch for the next game, then I will concede your point.)

    If Washington is out, they are going to have to let Moncrief back on the active roster.

    I'd rather they cut him and bring Rogers back.

    I forget the website that has been predicting it right for years now. I'm pretty sure Colbert and the Steelers know how it works.
