I was going to start a new topic but decided to begin here as it has some relevance to this discussion. We can separate it if needed.
I had WSCR on in my car a couple of hours ago. They were interviewing James Lofton. Part of the discussion was how the NFL is different today from when he first came out.
One of the things he talked about was the WR route tree. In 1977 the route tree had 10 routes. A few weeks ago he was looking at one (I forgot which California team he said. ) They had 54 routes on their tree. He was stunned.
Using that in this discussion - there is no way for the QB be it Aaron or the good Cutler or anyone else not named Brady 😛 to miss preseason games and go half speed in TC and then be able be in sync with his receivers. There are too many options. Even at mid season they still had things to work on.
