Why are Maclin and Kelce not producing?
 

They both appear to be having down years so far. What gives?

Disgust.....

Alex Smith

Edit: am I doing it right?

They make the plays when counted on to do so.

Three words:

Andy Reid

Smith is worse and games that we have a 10 point lead in Andy thinks it's time to stop scoring td's.

Basically Smith and Andy think scoring is not important.

Tyreek Hill, Demetrius Harris and Chris Conley are getting more targets.

they're never going to produce big numbers with this play calling. There are only so many opportunities to get them the ball. half the time andy calls a pass play behind the line. And Alex spreads the ball around as much as he can when regular pass plays are called. We also run one of the slowest paced offenses in the league so we don't run as many plays as other teams do.

Why are Maclin and Kelce not producing?
 

Look at the QB.. WRs and TEs will generally underperform statistically with this guy.

Just hope they make big plays with their 3-4 targets per game.

I have some ideas why , but if they were on the Saints or say the Patriots they would be going off!

They've produced in previous years here though.

But they do need more targets, that much is for sure. They've only thrown it 48 times the past 2 games, so not many guys are getting chances.

It starts with an A and ends with "lex Smith"

nb4 "waaaah fantasy football ruins everything"

Alex has a bit to do with it, but it's Andy Reid's offense more so. Conley and Hill getting more targets also.

1,000 yard receivers were a rarity in Philly under Reid

Why are Maclin and Kelce not producing?
 

Never to their full potential.

We've already seen what Maclin can do. He's yet to have that type of production here.

There's no difference between Kelce and Jordan Reed/Greg Olsen but those guy's numbers shit on his. Why? We all know.

3,200 yards and 18 TDs a season. 5-6 of those TDs will go to the backs. Another 1-2 to the back up TEs. Not much to go around.

What doesn't make sense is how much Andy Reid loves him passing. He wants to pass on first and ten pass on 2nd and 2 pass on third and one. Pass pass pass field goal.
