Dexter McCluster will catch 90 balls
According to Jim Zorn, who talked to this fan on an airplane.

He should have just stuck to the vids and gifs. That stuff is really enjoyable. His football takes are almost impossible to read. |

What is going to matter is whether he gets open, and those catches result in first downs. 45-50 for 10-12 a pop is the perfect number for a player like him.

He catches 45 balls, it's at the expense of a better player. We might throw the ball 450 times this year. Bowe should get 150-175 targets. Baldwin around 75-100. Breaston around 75. On the low end, that leaves 150 targets for Charles, Hillis, Boss and Moeaki. IIRC, Charles alone had somewhere around 70 targets in his big 2010 season. Let's say the backs split 75 targets. That leaves 75 for the TE's to split. So unless we through the ball 500+ times - which hasn't happened ONCE since Cassel became the QB - any touches DMc gets are just stealing opportunities from a better player. He's the 8th option, and he's probably going to get more than 50 targets. What does that tell you about our offense? |

Hey man, if they figured out a way to actually use him effectively, then that's fan-freaking-tastic. I was one thinking he wouldn't make the roster. My brother said I was insane, and he's going to have a big year. We're probably both wrong, but for now, he has bragging rights. |

The guy used to be ultra homer with zero objectivity and he got consistently called on it and saw the Drafturbators getting respect for being "objective" (which is translated to pessimistic in cp terms) so he started down that path trying to gain the respect for all the hours he spends trying to learn about the intricacies of the sport at this level and that didn't really work either. Now, he is just trolling most of the time IMO... At one point, the guy will find his middle ground and start banging it out like yours truly, but it's a process. |

Bowe, Baldwin, Breaston "X" TE will never see those targets because they'll be running more than 10 yards downfield. McCluster can certainly achieve 45+ because he's going to be Cassel's check down safety net.

It is sad and pathetic. It's a childlike need for attention. His lack of objectivity is the reason it's so annoying too. On one hand, I hate to see him do this crap because I like his dedication to this team, and have always liked the guy, and don't want to see him look so stupid...and of course enjoy his vids, and gifed up. And on the other hand, I'm really looking forward to this team proving him wrong, pounding his inflexible takes into the ground, and forcing him to take a much needed sabbatical, in hopes that he comes back with head screwed on right. |

People have this blind hatred & bias for McCluster just because of where he was drafted. It's ridiculous. No matter what this kid does, he can't win with some of you. Why? Because Pioli picked him the 2nd. Boo ****ing whoooo. Get over it. It was 3 goddamn years ago. The Midget has done enough this preseason and TC to show an OBJECTIONABLE person that he can in fact contribute to this offense, and by the looks of it, the Chiefs are planning on using him a lot. Anyone with eyes can see that. McCluster may not be great, but he's not bad either. If on the field production means ANYTHING....then he does in fact deserve more targets than guys like Baldwin and Moeaki, because he has out produced them and has done more with his opportunities than they have. But of course, CP will continue turning a blind eye to that because, well.....because he was picked in the 2nd round.

Doesn't the fact that KC signed Boss hint at using both him and Moeaki in a very very VERY poor man's attempt to replicate NE's offense?
That is unless Boss was signed purely for depth...

I also have no problem with him being against this regime, and wanting it gone. That's his own opinion, and I respect it, if that's how he feels.
