What exactly do you expect out of this receiving core? I guess I just don't have it in me to get mad about the mediocre players we trusted in playing mediocre. Hopkins is the only skill position player we have who could start for a decent team. This loss happened in the offseason (like all of our others).

My problem is if Strong is expected to be Robin...then why is he playing so sparingly?

Bench Hoyer please...He just looks so freaking scared...

I'm seeing a lot more bad passes than dropped balls. Ideally they'd look to Nuk more and either rely on him to make plays or teach the safeties to shade to his side and then take advantage of that. But if the quarterback is inaccurate and there is no running game to speak of I'm not sure there's much you can do.

The wide receiver/tight end corps sucks, of course (like most every area of this team) but I don't see them as the primary problem.

I expect them to hang onto the ball when it's in their grasp. It's not only the WRs.
