The 2nd video of Steven Ruiz has 3 plays. I am not a tape expert .... When I look at the first play, Manhertz is WIDE OPEN. The ball should go there. The receiver dropped it but the throw looks to be behind. He needs to look at Manhertz on that play. On the second play, why does he wait til Agnew is right before the LB to throw the ball. Agnew is WIDE OPEN earlier, the ball is too late. On the third throw, Marvin Jones seems to be the better target. He is open. Trevor throws to the wrong guy.

Trevor isn't perfect. I think we all know that. The issue is that he's not being set up to succeed earlier on. It's not just fans taking note of this. It's in the media now as well. When you look back at yesterday's game and the Bengals game. That's the kind of offense they should have been running all along this year to set him up to have more success. 

They have yet to establish any consistency with the chemistry out there for quite a few reasons. Injuries being one of them. However, Bevell and Meyer have done next to nothing in scheming around Lawrence's strengths. They don't know how to use him. They also don't know how to use the players around him.

Think about it. His 2nd best receiving threat this year just went out with a knee injury yesterday and he was picked up nearly a month into the regular season. He didn't have Chark. He didn't have O'Shaughnessy. They let Cole walk during the off season.

They keep trying to make Shenault a 4.3 mid to deep range receiving threat as well. When he's built more like an H-Back/Move TE that should have been put into motion a lot more than he's been put in this year to get open and make RAC plays with Lawrence's ability to move around himself. 

Marvin Jones is not a true No. 1 receiver. Agnew is a converted CB that was playing WR on the go that's now on IR. He's not some scrappy veteran that knows the tricks of the trade yet. I could see why he would wait on Agnew to get open. He's barely worked with him. If you think chemistry and talent doesn't matter go back and watch the Green Bay Vs. Arizona game from this year. Rodgers struggled without having his best three receiving threats on offense. Go back and look at Brady's last year in New England. They had nothing around him. That's why he bolted for Tampa Bay.

They finally started getting Robinson going in the receiving game yesterday too which is something they've only done sporadically (rarely) this year from a play calling perspective. They then proceeded to pull him out of the game for 22 snaps. This team just has too many holes to fill along with a lost headcoach that can't seem to step up at this level. It's been a bad year so far. They only have December to show that they're worth their salt as a coaching staff. 

If they can do more of what they did yesterday moving forward I think we would see more consistency from Lawrence.
