Tricky thing about Andrews is he was never the best blocker.
Boyle & Hurst were those guys who were the better blockers.
Even though Likely had a couple good blocks the duo doesn't really give you that Gronk/Hernandez ying/yang.
I disagree. You got two of the best tight ends in the league you better figure out how to use them together. Biggest mistakes they made were not resigning Zeitler and trading Moses
I can sort of understand Moses. Should have moved up for one of the better tackles. Although Wiggins could be a really good corner so it might be ok. Zeitler being let go was egregious.
Agree about the TEs. Monken won a chip at Georgia utilizing 2 TE sets. it’s on him to scheme it up. Disagree about Zeitler. he is 34 , wanted a big pay day and has been hurt the entire training camp for the Lions . so either way it was smart to move off him. Moses, I do think we could have kept for 1 more year since he wasn’t expensive but injuries started to pile up for him as well
I heard Likely doesn't want to leave Baltimore, but after a game like that, it's only a matter of time until someone gets his ear and tells him how much money he can make somewhere else. No way Ravens will pay him and Andrews big money. I'd like to see them use both or Lamar atleast see both as options.
Andrews pissed me off last night with that dumb ass baseball sliding catch on 3rd down when he should've caught the pass in stride. Dude avoids contact ALL THE TIME...when sometimes you gotta play football and stop being soft. I have never seen a TE slide into catches as much as Andrews in my life. If a defender is within 2 yards of him...he's sliding or catching that shyt as low to the ground as possible.
Anyway...its on Monken and Lamar to get the ball to them both.
Andrews ability to get YAC appears to be cooked at the moment (could be the car accident got him worried about contact right now)
Lamar use to throw jump balls to Andrews.
On the 2nd to last drive that they settled for FG he had Andrews in the middle of the field for the TD. He probably has to jump up and snag it but it was there. Instead he scrambled out of the pocket.
The way to salvage Andrews is to let him catch those tight window or one on one jump ball passes where he can use his size.
