Jojo Trader and Lofton are the key to beating A&M and a deep playoff run

You are correct, Marion., Daniel's and Toney will get the majority of snaps. We expect them to do their thing. But sometime you need those key role players to step up to the moment. We need Jojo to be that key role player when his number is called.

I understand what you are saying, but throughout the season Moore has kind of been that 4th receiver making those plays. I think he's the one who we need to step up and win on those occasional downfield 50/50 balls.

Lofton I agree on vs A&M. They have not defended the TE well this year. Maybe @Calinative favorite player ever Bauman has a big game too?

Lofton and Trader have both been coming on as of late. I am therefore hopeful that your thoughts will come to pass.

Jojo has caught 3 passes in the last 3 games....... 3

If everyone SELLS what they're supposed to SELL - the right players will be open or see a good number of yards wide open.

SELL. Like you're the man!

Many optimistic poRsters believe he could have that many catches in ONE GAME this Saturday. ONE GAME!!! Can you believe it?!?

Can’t wait to see how it all plays out.

Did I miss something? Isn't Trader in the portal or are they letting him play?

I don't think he is. At least I don't remember seeing anything.

In a shocking development we will need players to step up

Yes, we need someone other than Toney to pick up the rains… Moore, Daniel’s, Upshaw(if healthy), Lofton, Marion, and of course Jojo need to step up and make plays…. Which they have to help alleviate the dependency on Toney who Elko like 95% of all teams we played this year will try and minimize his impact

We’ve got some nice paydays in that group of names… time to stop talking about potential and start making critical plays

I like OP’s thinking. They WILL be focused on Toney and probably trying to stop our run. Jojo is the forgotten piece, well cuz he’s barely played. If he can come in and land 4-5 key catches, and even a TD, would be huge. We need a game where jojo, moore and marion score and force them to to relax on toney and respect the rest of the wr’s.

Need lofton to finally have the game Dmoney has teased for two offseasons. A mix of strategic/creative plays for him, plus just using him as the emergency dump off guy that turns 3yrd dump into a 8-12yrd back breaker.
