All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
We certainly need a long term answer at the WR position. Lee is wasting his good years where he still has his legs, by the time we get a real QB and offense Evans will be a fringe #2 at best. Stevie isn't even a viable #2. Nelson's a flash in the pan. Roscoe looks like he doesn't give a crap with this team. I'd have liked to see what Easley could have done, word was he looked real nice in camp. Still don't understand why we're not splitting CJ out wide. I anticipate when Shawn Nelson comes back he'll get some reps as WR as well.
Housh didn't put up number 1 WR numbers last year in Seattle and was run out of town this year. Those numbers were still better than what Evans did last year.
Everyone blames the QB for not getting him the ball..blah blah blah..
Maybe the QB doesn't get him the ball because he's not open?
Roddy White put up numbers with Harrington.
Kevin Johnson put up numbers with Tim Couch.
Calvin Johnson put up numbers with Culpepper.
Marty Booker put up numbers with Jim Miller.
All of the above QBs along with Trent Edwards suck/sucked.
I think the problem is Lee is too one dimensional. These guys you listed can jump up and get the ball if their not open. Evans can't do that. He's a below average #1, strong #2 WR right now. When you need someone opposite you in order to make 1 catch, then you're not a clear #1 at all. Even when Losman got him the ball, it was all on deep bombs, he's always been one dimensional.
I get so frustrated watching other team's QBs just throw the ball up and the WR like Roddy White or Calvin Johnson jump up and get the ball even if their not open. I think trading Evans would not be a bad thing for this team.
I honestly don't see the point here unless you are trying to say he was blanketed the whole game, or can't get open. We all know that is BS. He's fast, but the guy can't throw himself the ball.

He can get open, on streaks. We don't have a QB anymore who throws streaks.
Even when Losman was here, that's what he excelled at, and where he put his numbers up.
Simple solution, bring in a Jeff George type QB and you'll see Lee Evans put numbers up again. Bring in a QB who's game isn't tailored around the deep ball and Lee will disappear.

was Jennings open when he caught the ball on the left side? NO. But Aaron threw him the ball.
A lot of wr's aren't open when the qb throws the ball.
The flaw in your argument is that all the qb's you mentioned were willing to throw the ball. even a dink and dunk qb like Holcomb would throw the ball.
The FACTS have proven that when the qb isn't named Trent Edwards, Lee gets the ball.
