Jeff Thomas must feel like...

[Salt]

...a student who changed a test answer and then learns that his original choice was the correct one.

What'd he touch the ball maybe twice last game? Is there a reason why our offense doesn't feature our most explosive player by far?

Don't forget he also gets about 3-4 fair catch opportunites per game.

He just had 100+ and 2 TD’s last week.

Exactly, every game is not going to be some big game like that. The qbs have missed him on opportunities and he has missed them himself as well, it’s simple

 

[Crimpy]

He just had 100+ and 2 TD’s last week.

Actually it was: 6 catches for 124 yards and 2 TDs. A 20.7 ypc average against a voracious VT defense.

And we follow that up with 3 catches for 14 yards? Two quick short throws with no blocking, so he's swarmed immediately, and one toss into the endzone knocked away by the defender; probably because it was thrown late.

A talent on paper only. Lmao.

 

[coffeecane]

I believe he also dropped a touchdown that hit him in the chest too because a defender slightly obscured his vision.

Defender hit the ball and should have picked it.

 

[stormbrewing]

Jeff has had plenty of opportunity he needs to capitalize on every opportunity
That’s what nfl receivers do

 

[Tweed]

Jeff is running wide open all over the place downfield. The QB routinely isn’t seeing him or throwing terrible passes to him. Jeff ran a GREAT route on that play and the ball was thrown way to late, because the QB had to avoid a rusher right in his face.

For the same reason we ran a option to the short side of the field on a 3rd and 1.

With a TE who was still gassed from the play before, I believe.

 

[dudenate]

I’ll play.

Jeff Thomas must feel like...
...crap for dropping the TD vs the gaytors and muffing the fair catch.

That’s his season. Deal with it.

 

[321>CANES<305]

Wow .... Are you guys really watching the games or just want to complain... matter of fact did you ever play the game???

Some of these post man..... smh

JT is getting DOUBLED almost every game with a safety over the top and he still gets touches.

That's some x's and o's Football 101.

Unbelievable!
(SOME need to stick to the other sport name football... soccer!!!)

This play suuuuuuuccccckkkkkkeeeeeddddd. How on God’s green earth did Enos think this play was the right call to convert the first down, when a simple off tackle run would’ve gotten us the first down???
And the TE sweep on the goal line to the short side of the field....what the **** is he thinking????

I understand our OL sucks but some of the plays he calls are mind boggling!!!!!!

 

[Dwinstitles]

In fairness to Jeff, I think the defender deflected that.

Yea thats what i saw

 

[Mnhurricane]

never seen a WR group so indifferent about making plays. No fire or fight to go up and get the ball

 

[TexasCane90]

JT4 is hoping perry stays in...

If Jwill is the QB he gets zero looks

 

[the storm]

Time for him to return some punts.

Here's one reason...he drops the F@$#ing ball. A lot.

It's a good idea to know what ur talking about when you post. Here's an interesting article from 247 Sports, albeit from before the VT game:

A look at how WR Jeff Thomas is being utilized in 2019

Is Miami using their best playmaker the right way?

247sports.com

Here's my favorite line from the whole thing:

"According to Pro Football Focus, Thomas has not dropped a catchable pass that has been thrown his way this season."

 

[cocanes]

Twice

 

[Cuban-Cane]

Jeff isn’t playing up to his talent level and anyone who denies that just doesn’t know football. The guy hasn’t caught a contested pass all year and he’s had plenty of opportunity.

 

[Crimpy]

Twice

Wrong. The defender got his hands on the ball and tipped it away. It was thrown way too late.
