I was thinking how we don’t get our WRs involved early or often enough. Dunk, run, dunk, dunk, run dunk.
There are times a Wr on this team won’t touch the ball for two drives.

We’ve all heard feed the beast especially for Rb’s but I think this is a part of the problem for our wr’s.

When they finally get something thrown to them it seems they’re just not in the flow and then it’s another 7-8 plays before their number is called again.

It’s what the 49ers did with Piersal today in the second half. Maybe I’m just grasping at straws.

Maybe the most shocking part to me is how few routes Wilson runs and how infrequently he gets looked at.
Exactly. When game planning you would think there is a weakness to attack. Whoever fits into the plan to exploit the weak spot needs to be featured and expect 8-10 balls thrown their way instead of 3.

I believe this all falls back to the QB, and either not be able to read defense's or unable to read them. Unwillingness to stand in the pocket and let plays develop. I thought K1 did a much better job at this on Sunday. So hopefully he's getting better at that part of the game
