    He will learn from it and get better

    He'll get better. I still think he's got a lot of Hines Ward qualities about him. Tough start though.

    As of now I disagree. Ward would have never timidly taken a knee after fielding a kickoff at the 20 yard line. Could he grow into it? Maybe. But I think you either have a killer instinct like Hines did or you don't. I'm very skeptical, but I never was a fan of Schuster in college and thought we reached. Time will tell.

    Agreed. The holding penalties were frustrating, but that play really bothered me.

    Like 3 holds and 0 catches. I still see no need for him right now. Too many injuries, should have been on IR. I would have taken Ayers over him.

    Brown, Bell, Bryant, Rogers, James, McDonald. Where's the need for Juju?

    The coaching staff needs to work with him to teach him how to block. He had 2 holding calls and should have had 3 as he got away with one, he gets overpower quickly and grabs the shoulder. The problem is that it looks as if he was never asked to block before and looks very inept, hopefully they can help him otherwise he will be useless to the offense.

    A very bad game plan by Haley. Not sure why he didn't go 3 Wide with DHB wide left and Bryant wide right with AB inside of either. Run go routes to both outside guys and slants and posts to AB.

    This would have at least got them out of that single high and 8 in the box .

    JuJu didn't do JackJack. If only he had as much grip for the ball as he does the opponent's jersey.

    His kick off return was embarrassing.
    Has he ever returned kick offs before? College, HS, Junior High?

    JuJu gets compared to Hines Ward. Ward didn't do much his rookie year in '98. Actually... Ward didn't do much until Plax was drafted in '00... then he exploded and became a force at WR.

    Maybe that was his way of "protesting inequality" except he was saying "I'm not nearly as good as AB so I'm just gonna take a knee..." LOL!

    Bryant will be fine. It's been a while for the guy but he's shown brilliance. I like Juju but I hated the second round WR pick. We'll see...

    ok son, when you graab them it's a penalty. when you push them it's a block. if you grab and push them, make sure the ref isn't standing right there watching you. now get out there and play some football like you're capable of doing. :cool:

    It seems as though he was used to getting blocked for .... and he not blocking at all. His job is to go across the middle for the hard catches...no to block
