When Kupp missed games 3 through 6 last year, Tutu got 80.8% of the offensive snaps. 74.1, 90.2, 80.8 and 78.2. He had 20 receptions on 30 targets, 284 yards (14.2). The scheme didn't appear to change at all.
Oh, I don't know......maybe because he's not suited physically to "carry the offense"? Hey strawman it all you want, nobody is saying he's a #1 receiver....like Kupp or Puka. Nobody is saying he could carry the offense.
Sure he does. After the fact he remembers EVERYTHING. But in the heat of the moment? Christ, he leaves guys out there when the game is already settled and has admitted to not knowing a player was out on the sidelines on certain plays. He's the head coach and OC and with everything on his plate during the game, he certainly does forget shit like that.
You using the term strawman here is quite entertaining actually.
Lmao how the hell is your intelligence offended but not you personally? I'm not saying that to attack you by the way but I'm actually laughing at that statement because it is funny tho so kudos there. We'll have to disagree as my question is definitely valid. Kupp was essentially phased out of the offense last year so Tutu should have gotten more run but didn't for some reason. The money aspect should have zero to do with it if a player is just straight up good. Puka is the latest example of that. Rams didn't have to go get Adams if they thought Atwell could more than pick up the slack but that isn't the case. My comment is more so for folks expecting the automatic 1,000 yard season which you just said you don't expect which makes it even more curious as to why you are so disturbed by it as we seem to agree there. I'm mostly taking the wait and see approach on this one but I'm not holding my breath on a 1 year WR to explode out of nowhere. Personally hoping I'm wrong as being so only benefits the team as a whole.
I would have been interested in seeing what is stats *may* have been if he was given the chance at being a starter.
Nobody’s saying he’s a number one option but everybody knows that Mcvay has his types of recivers tbh I don’t even know why he drafted tutu … but tutu can definitely help this offense and when he gets opportunity’s he makes the most of them does he have a drop every once and a while in traffic sure but don’t act like others don’t … he constantly gets separation and idc kupp was in his way and no way Mcvay was sitting kupp on the sideline no matter what unless he was hurt that’s why he let kupp go imo
And he still had more catches and yards with less opportunity’s then Robinson … A lot of the time when he was on the field he was just clearing out
I’m the biggest Tutu fan and that would be nearly impossible for him to get 1000 I think as the 3 he could get around 650-800 4-6 tds
And Robinson was so bad as the #3 WR he's gone, not sure I'd be bragging about having a handful more catches than a guy we didn't retain. All that speed though with Atwell it's surprising he was 3 yards per reception behind Robinson.
I definitely think that is a more realistic and reasonable expectation. Whether that happens is yet to be determined.
Yeah, I know. I agree. I just wanted to see what he ran, so I decided to put it my reply in case anyone else wondered.
Sorry, didn't he post a 4.39 40yd dash (edit: at the combine)? and a 4.32 at his pro-day?
I was responding to the your, "why couldn't Tutu carry the offense". Nobody said he could. Well, one guy claims he could amass 1,000 yards, so everybody but him. Just like El Chapo's comment "if Tutu is that good, why didn't he take snaps away from Kupp?", it's ridiculous. Everybody (but 1 guy) has said, Tutu is a #3 WR.
I'd watch the tape... but of course I gave him a height and weight build up here.
