    Because Janis isn't 'trustworthy'

    I mean, Lacy gets benched for a fumble but at least 90% of his touches were productive.

He gets to the point of his route where he is making cuts and he does this jump cut fake move that is going nowhere.

    Yeah, I don't think he's 100% or even close. I think it's time to just turn Janis loose and see what he can do, especially on the scramble drills they seem to fall into when the rush comes and the receivers aren't getting open in their primary routes. It's not their style, but is there any possibility of bringing in a street free agent to try and inject some life, or is that a waste? http://walterfootball.com/freeagents2015WR.php

    Janis and Jones routes are completed shit; Jones makes a rounded circle over a sharp cut. Janis just runs crappy routes and it's no wonder AROD doesn't trust the guy. I wouldn't either.

    This team missed Abby and Montgomery; many dig on Abby but he's a very crisp, reliable, and solid route runner. He just can't stay healthy. Montgomery I thought was a pretty good route runner as well.
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Nah. people were pretty amped about Abracadabra. You can tell he has skills. I was at the SD game when Monty got hurt. Somehow, that was the final straw for the offense. They've been in a funk ever since. I really think it's the overall skill level at depth. Adams, Cobb, Abra, Monty, and Jones/Janis is a pretty decent five man WR group (switch Jones and Janis out for possession/fly pattern). But they need all that depth because Adams and Cobb are not #1 receivers. Adams has a chance to be a #1 assuming he's still not 100% at the ankle and gets hand transplants.
