I mean, I obviously have no idea what they're thinking. I do know that Hopkins never looks gassed the way Mike Evans has a lot of the time when I've watched him this season. And he's clearly wanted to be on the field on 3rd downs, but they always shake their heads at him. I guess we'll see what they have planned eventually.

I was surprised that Kelce played 66 of 74 snaps yesterday.

Honestly, no. Because that would be just about the dumbest ****ing reason imaginable for keeping DHop off the field. If that were the reason, I’d say that was a fireable offense.

Would it tho? The risk of injury goes up along with the possibility of the higher draft pick the more he plays.

We very possibly have 2 more losses already if Hopkins didn't exist on the team. Anyone here would do a 4th/5th pick swaps in a heartbeat for a Super Bowl appearance. |

He doesn't have an injury problem. Some people conflated that idea when he tore his MCL back in '21, then missed the first 6 games of '22, due to a suspension, not the injury. Other than that, he's missed a game here and there, but the reality is that he's played 92% of all possible games throughout his career. I mean, he played every single game for TEN while he was there, all 23 games, I think? And a Grade 3 MCL 'tear' isn't even a tear, it's more like he overstretched it. I think he's physically fine, and holding him back over a potential draft pick is worse than dumb. He needs to be on the field, getting a feel for those subpackages as soon as possible, because we're going to need him out there come the playoffs. I just watched the A-22 of the game, and he was a really big part of the reason we even won that game, and I'm not just talking about the TD catch. All that said, I don't believe that Andy would be dumb enough to limit DHop's snaps because of a potential 4th rdr; he's just not that kind of stupid. I think it has to do with the fact that he's only been on the team for a month. And JuJu just got back, and he needs to get some reps to get back up to speed, obviously, because he looks like he's not quite there yet. And I noticed that they have Mecole doing some different things, like playing RB, and I'll bet that becomes something in the playoffs. And of course, Worthy needs his reps as well, simply because he's a rook. But I still say there's simply no reason for our WR5 to eat up 65% of the snaps, when DHop could easily take on an extra half-dozen or 10 snaps, and the offense would definitely be a lot better for it.

If his snap count has anything to do with the draft pick, it's that they always planned to put him on a pitch count and negotiated the trade accordingly.

lol, seriously? You think our overall record is relevant to the conversation? We almost lost to a decimated TB sporting the 29th defense in the NFL. We did lose to BUF. We scored just 16 pts on DEN. We nearly lost to CAR one of the worst teams in the league. I don’t know why any of that needs repeating. And weren’t you one of the ones that said CAR was going to be a’get-right’ game for us? Did it feel like a ‘get-right’ game during our 6th and 7th drives when we went 14 plays for 5 yds? Against one of the worst defenses in the league? Actually, the worst scoring defense in the NFL? And the simple fact is that the offense is much more efficient when DHop is on the field than if he’s not. And he needs as many game reps as possible in situational packages as possible before the playoffs, SO THAT THE OFFENSE CAN BE AS EFFICIENT AS POSSIBLE, wouldn’t we all agree? You know, so that when we’re playing the best teams/defenses, our best WR can actually be on the field helping the offense score points instead of jerking off on the sidelines because JWat is so valuable with his 1.8 catches/game? I’d rather DHop get all the necessary reps to be at his best, instead of saving a potential 4th rd pick, because I’d rather win another SB. Crazy, I guess.

Dhop gets the game ball. 4-90 plus two big PI for 46. Loved the one hander on the overthrow that didn't count. So fun to watch every week.
Gray and Worthy also had nice games again. Pat threw for 306. |

I would give the game ball to Bolton, dude balled out today. I was criticizing him early on in the season and he's making me eat my words and they are tasty
