Agree, we have no physical freaks at WR or TE. We have two very good complimentary guys and decent TE's. We have no difficult mismatches. We need to add that type of player to make a play when the offense is stymied. Look what Metcalf or Hopkins do for their team. Or Tyreke Hill. The Chiefs don't win their SB without Hill's big play late.
You never see pre-game hype about how will our opponent match up with one of our skill players. Like you see with Adams, Hopkins, Julio, Hill or even Metcalf.
That is just reality and too many here keep saying how great our skill guys are. Like Stafford will never have it so good. Well, I think they are talented, but also a product of the scheme much like Goff in some sense.
Again they are good, but not special where they strike fear based on their skillset. Teams are more concerned with or focused more on the scheme.
When they handle the scheme, we don't have the players to overcome that and yes that was Goff as well. So the question is can Stafford overcome that when things get figured out by the opponent on game day? And better yet can he do it without thst special player that provides a mismatch.
Aaaand we are back to the Stafford/Goff trade..................
