One observation I’ve had that it seems the players like Monken and it shows with how hard they’re playing for him. I didn’t see that with KS the last two years. For what it's worth, I think the guy is genuine and the players see him in that light. Good game.. Gotta give props to Watson. Honestly, I didn't think he had it..

I was referring to WR Isaiah Bond .. I was hoping to see more of him .. I saw flash's of talent last season in his limited playing time . I like Bond as well. It just seems like the staff, at least at this point, seem to favor Fannin and the two rookies and they will get the bulk of the opportunities moving forward.

IMO the offense will evolve as each game is played.
This really is on the job training. DW hopefully will learn his receivers and know when to go to them.
Boston because of his catch radius has found a connection with DW. He is a big target who has great hands.
KC is the go to on quick routes. He is easy to find underneath because he has that shake to separate.
Bond is a guy who will threaten on deep routes. These take time and you want certain looks. The routes take longer and need good protection.
Fannin, Carson, Graham, Q, second year players.
Fano, KC, Boston, Barber, Warren, first year rookies.
That is a load of talent in two drafts.
There is a lot of talent on the Browns spread around the field.
If Watson can protect the ball and find the open guy on time. The Browns can win games.

Two catches on two targets so far for Bond. He'll see more turf when someone gets dinged; but I'd like to see a few more reps in the interim.

Isaiah Bond is another talented WR. Our WR room is very deep right now and talented. I'm sure Monken will work Bond in and start giving him more targets. I think everyone including our coaches are surprised at how well our 2 rookie WRs are doing. Bond is a serious deep threat.

There is an embarrassment of riches at WR.
I can't believe I just typed that and meant it.

Exactly and last season we had one of the worse WR rooms in the league. With a very good RT and a very good QB our O might rank top 10 IMO.

I imagine the Jax game is doing the heavy lifting in that stat.

Rodgers is a HOFer.
However, his current behavior is not helping his team IMO.
His obvious acts of frustration appear to demean his head coach. At the same time he acts like he should be in charge of all offensive decisions.
Teams are made up of players mostly under thirty. There are veterans over 30 of course. It cannot be helpful having one player act like everyone else is an idiot.
The Steelers look like a team coming apart at the seams and Rodgers the guy who is cutting the threads.
