The giving himself up instead of cutting to the far right and the fumble… the TD he kinda just didn’t really fight for…

Idk feels off. Not bashing him, but it’s just seems he’s playing to avoid hits it seems like

I am starting to get tired of it honestly it is self preservation mode after every catch now. Has been for the last couple years.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. He has arguably cost us 12 points this game and boy did he make a "business decision" on that slide. Worst game I have seen from him. I wonder what is going on with him.

He's done for years. I kind of don't blame him, he's a lot lighter than a lot of the defenders. He got injured a couple of times early in his career and he seems to have made a decision to avoid the contact rather than fight for a couple of extra yards. He's a great pass catcher - gets open and catches almost anything. But he has that limitation.

The guy is used to scrambling around for a year to get open and lose the defender for a 60 yard gain. Now he has to play football and he isnt used to getting hit!

I think that early fumble got into his head. He just wants to protect the ball. He's picking up first downs. I'm fine with that.

I'm 100% ok with Lockett avoiding contact. He always gets open for 1st downs and has a smaller frame without the breakaway speed. His strength is his route running, he's the definition of a possession receiver

6-91 on 8 targets
Are you guys ever happy with this team
It’s not a matter of happiness it’s a matter of TDs are better than FGs. And Tyler needs to be more scrappy.
