    If we passed more than we do, we might be sitting at 4-0 right now.

    Cyrus has a long way to go to be an effective passer, and I think Petersen knows that.

    The only issue I see with our current run/pass mix is that everyone else knows we are not a huge pass threat right now, and thus stuffing the box (LOL) could become an issue going forward.

    Why am I not hearing the 12 WRs bitch and moan about not throwing the ball more?

    Petersen is here to win games. The way to win those games with this team is by running the ball. Making sure guys got stats and running them up in blowouts is what Sark did. This year's offense is not geared for a WR to put up big numbers. Ross is doing his work with limited touches as well. Mickens has caught some balls, but most of those have been short passes and screens. That has never been Kasen's role.

    WR's want the ball. I would expect a player who has been a #1 or #2 target who got a lot of targets to be frustrated by not getting the ball. I didn't think Kasen said anything that wasn't true or was that bad, but he probably shouldn't have made those comments to the media.

    Agree, but I will add that I haven't had the sense that he's working extremely hard to create separation and help Miles out. Either that or his injury was so bad that he's a mere shell of his former self.

    Pretty sure that this HOFer was complaining in 1972 and 1973 about not getting enough touches.

    Quite honestly, the sooner we can get rid of Sark players the better in my mind.

    Jude said in his blog this morning that he didn't think Williams was complaining, just telling it like it is

    They should move Kasen to WR.
