Puka does have a case, if any non QB is going to get it. But it is only week 5, a long way to go. Puka does the right QB to get the numbers though, seems like a couple other guys had record breaking seasons catching passes from 9. Even Pukas record breaking rookie season came off the arm of Stafford. I'm not taking anything away from what Puka has accomplished, but it helps to have Stafford dropping dimes and mostly protecting you from hits.

Puka's on pace for 178 catches and 2137 yards over 17 games. Everyone knows he's Stafford's favorite target. Yet, they can't shut him down. If they commit too much to stop him Davante Adams will go off on them. Its pick your poison.

There seems to be a vast gulf in the development of our corners vs the development of our safeties. Our safeties are playing exceptionally well. Curl just had his best game in horns. Lake has been on a roll. McCullough is developing nicely. But those corners still can't even get their fuckin heads around on perimeter throws or play with any sort of anticipation underneath.

I find it interesting that we have a safety specific coach in Beake. Who is making his money. I suppose that means Pleasant is coaching the corners. Also I wonder if Pleasant told McVay not to worry about corner this offseason, because there didn't seem to be nearly enough concern with the position in their approach. And now that we're in full season mode it sure feels like it's a problem. Maybe he told them it was a need and was ignored for greater issues. But if that was the case it was a tactical error on the roster build because the playoffs would have been a lot easier with at least one good cover man back there.

Anyway we obviously have a hell of a team. But if we don't get some development with these corners it feels like we'll hit a team in the playoffs that can nullify our rush and that will be that.

If Kupp couldn't win in '21, no WR ever will again.

Yeah it was a joke for him not to win it. But Kupp did win Super Bowl MVP and had the greatest WR season in history in my opinion, when you crunch his performance in both the season and playoffs. Not bad for a kid from Eastern Washington eh?

The safety’s are a strong group when you consider their discipline, knowledge of the system, turnover impact and especially their tackling which has been top of the league.

Corners are a weak point but I have seen much worse. I would bet they are considering a late season trade if we are healthy and poised for a Super Bowl run. We’ve seen it before with Miller and the savy move to get Weddle.

Make be waiting on Spoons recovery situation and thinking they can coach up Forbes. Durant has looked improved from my eye.
