Watson can generally catch what comes to him but his only value is to run the right route. When was our last fade route? Because it feels like we pull ridiculous gymnastics just to pass the ball on 3rd and short.
I’m ok with losing tyreek but man a HUGE loss was the “**** it tyreek somewhere” pass. You’ve got to give mahomes more options to go and get whatever is thrown in their radius.

I mean...we have thrown for more yards than any team in football - SOMEBODY is catching the ball on the other end...
What you're demonstrating here is exactly why I DON'T care about size much for this offense. We don't have a lot of plays where guys are fighting to take balls away because that's simply not how this offense works.
It's not designed to work that way. It doesn't HAVE to work that way. Those are higher risk, lower reward plays that lesser offenses have to rely on.
And there's some 'familiarity breeds contempt' things here. Oh sure, we get annoyed as hell watching Mike Williams push off again and again and again and get away with it. But at 3 years/$60 million, he's getting the same kind of separation that MVS is getting out there. He's physical because he HAS to be.
I don't need those guys. And when you start to get to "well I want someone who's built like Mike Evans with the physicality of Gronk and the speed of Tyreek Hill!" well no shit, congrats - we ALL want peak Calvin Johnson.
But barring that, if I'm picking 'average representative models' - physicality just ain't high on my list at all.
