ChesterCopperpot1 Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 This is the debate we need to be having. I think most do recognize that he is struggling in this offense, but do any of us know or understand why he is struggling? Why when in a HUNH situation, he looks awesome, but the other 58 minutes of the game, he looks bad. It's the extreme views (he's not struggling or he's a bust) that cloud the real discussion we should be having. So why is he struggling?

kyle021 Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 He is the one player everyone said "if there is one player I'm not worried about this year it's MM" Then this mofo is the only thing that has me worrying. He's comparable to Antwon Blake at his position through 3 weeks MamlngEnvy 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divine Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 His wide outs can't get seperation. Even the announcers said it. The secondary is just sitting on their routes. I'm curious on much man to man Oakland was doing. I'm assuming quite a bit. That's what every team is going to do against from here on out. We don't have anyone that scares teams deep.

We don't have anyone that scares teams deep. The defense is sitting on everything because of the offense design. They have to open it up run more 3x1.

Most likely this will get fixed next off season they via draft and free agency. In the meantime we have to suffer thru a season of nothing but possession receivers that can't get seperation. I'm actually blaming the WR's more then Mariota, I mean if everyone is covered what is the kid going to do? EagleEye 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denali Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 As I said in the other thread, is Mariota afflicted with the "nudie bar staredown"? C_Train 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Ask yourself why does he look good in the last few minutes of games throwing the ball and hitting guys in tight spaces so nicely? But early on w struggles can't make the same throws and his receivers aren't even running wide open. Last year he had the same problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I heard Mularkey talk about it, he said Marcus is doing it, not Robiskie. Could it be that simple?

It's funny the only deep shot i think we took off of actual play action was to a 38 yr old Johnson who is not fast...at all (Mariota over threw him...lol arm strength) We just lack speed. Oman was right they were trying to hide Mariota, we need a dez Bryant Aj green type wideout that is deep threat, we tried with hunter and beckham...but those guys would mess up a go route.

By this time the secondary is tired and our slow ass WR's can actually start getting seperation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
