We were 8th in the NFL in red zone efficiency this year. We already know we don't throw deep passes, so outside of a WR fade which is a total throw away play for this team, how did you expect a WR to score a TD?
It would be one thing if we were 30th in red zone efficiency, but we weren't.
Our running backs had 21 TD's.
It was really a non-issue to say the least. It would be different if we had issues in the red zone.
We were actually top 5 until the putrid 2-4 stretch to end the season.

If you're addressing my post, lets throw receiver
touchdowns out the window and just focus on explosive plays
in general to receivers... when we do that, he STILL comes up lacking.
With our miserable last 6 games in the redzone, dont you think that goes hand in hand with Smiths inability or reluctance to throw outside to his receivers, thereby giving the defense much less field to defend on an already shrunken field?
Once teams figured out that all they had to focus on in the redzone was Charles, Fasano and Kelce... they had it made.
