Larry Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 1 hour ago, TD_washingtonredskins said: Could this stat be a function of the QB? I wonder if throwing the ball a tick later in routes reduces the amount of extra yards a receiver can get? I'm not able to watch the games, but I would assume that a receiver who catches a lot of contested balls would look bad in this stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I've been fairly harsh towards Doctson but I'd say he's on the upward curve. Not really sure what the 'stats' will tell us, but I'd suggest there is a clear visible improvement on the field. Way to go yet, but at least promising in my opinion.

superozman Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 1 hour ago, TD_washingtonredskins said: Late passes will almost certainly impact separation. They can also lead a receiver another step or two toward a sideline so that there's no realistic way to turn upfield after the catch. Now, I have no clue if this is impacting the numbers at all. I'd be curious what that stat is traditionally for each player prior to Smith... Last year - Doctson was 2.2 Separation yards as well, with .2 YAC +/-, while Richardson was 2.4 with 0. Reed/Harris weren't included in the 2017 stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I thought the same thing, only for all the WRs for much of the year. We were paper thin there from week 1, and he was not the only one going down / avoiding contact. I saw PRich do it as well, and possibly others. I think it was a directive from coaches to do that, to stop the bleeding. Injuries at WR from week 0-11. Harris Sims Quinn Crowder PRich... even Josh and his heel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did complain to the officials. In this sequence of events, you may not have seen it on camera, but I'm pretty sure that @TK mentioned it since he's down on the field. It was insanely blatant, both the non-call and Josh's reaction. I'm definitely warming up to the guy and not questioning his passion. Last season against KC, he dropped that ball in the endzone that would've won the game. On replay, you see the MASSIVE facemask not being called. Sunday had echoes of that.

Wildbunny Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 He had one hell of a catch in the 2nd half. And some pretty tough ones as well. Dude is slowly rising which is good considering our QB situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was the long range busted coverage score I believe. Hes showed up well in recent game. Don't think he's an outright bust. Maybe a very solid #2 in the making.

Playaction2Sanders Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Well you have a QB whose actually throwing the ball his way for a change.. All of sudden Doctson looks like someone you wanna keep around.. Good god how come Smith couldn't find him this much?? Doctson's seen more action in 5 quarters with Colt than 10 games with Alex..

Docton's strength is contested catches Smith won't risk those type of throws. They don't complement each others style of play so they shouldn't be on the same team.

His very first catch he was open by 5 yds. Ball was under thrown but he still made a big gain. He gets open plenty. Kirk and Alex either didn’t see him, threw somewhere else or missed him. Having said that he strength is contested balls. Btw: how many people saw the great defensive play he made to save an int. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarpon75 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 He also drew what should’ve been two major pass interference calls the last two weeks. Those missed calls would have had a big impact on both games,had they been called. He is showing improvement for sure, he may turn out to be worth that #1 pick yet.

Unbias Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 He's flashed, which he's done before. He's strung together a couple nice games, so my fingers are crossed. Right now the sample size is small, but he's under contract for another year, so why not be optimistic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
