Riddick Is it his fault or our QB's choices

Theo doesn't seem much of a factor. Is it his fault that he doesn't get open or is it that Tommy seems to only look for Eifert and Floyd most of the time ?
Toma seems to have usually been effective when he has the chance which has been less this year than last year. I wouldn't mind seeing Toma get more time and see if (1) he would be more productive than Theo or (2) if it is just that Tommy doesn't look at this Z receiver very much.

I think its Rees, but could just be playcalling, Riddick and Jones do not get a lot of passes, even when floyd is double covered.

Thought I read that Riddick was wide open on the flea-flicker, but Rees forced it to Floyd.

The tv game announcer said that. A replay wasn't shown so we could see it, but the guys in the booth have a great vantage point so I have to assume he was.

Rees is 6' tall at most. Riddick and Jones are 5'-9" at most. He can't fine them unless he is out of the pocket. They have to tag both of them in order to get them the ball. Jones runs the little slip screen about twice per game and that is the only way they can get him the ball. Theo also has to be tagged in most cases in order to get him the ball. They just don't get open in most cases and if they do happen to break open, Rees can't locate them.

I'd agree with illest. But I'd also ask, where is the Leprecat? We haven't seen it once this year, and it seemed very effective last year with Theo running it.
