re: Lack of playmakers at WR this year

It's definitely a perplexing issue. I feel the issue is a combination of our OC's route trees and also Bryce's timing with the receivers. Our passing game never developed chemistry because Bryce hurt his shoulder and the young receivers had never got in a rhythm with him. Since he's been back he's been reluctant to throw deep balls and even his shorter routes he's only throwing to a receiver if he's wide open. Similar to the receivers in the 2017 season they're not running routes at full speed because of them not expecting the pass to be there during the route. Most of our successful passing plays have come when the play has broken down and Bryce is able to pull his Johnny Manziel impersonation. If he never hurts his shoulder I think we would've seen better production from our receivers.
