Our receivers suck

They are terrible. It is this team’s Achilles heel.

I have been saying for some years that Penn State rarely has more than one really good receiver in its top 3. Ohio State sometimes has two or even 3 complete studs. I can't believe how barren the receiver Corp is. There is just nothing there.

 

[The Spin Meister]

No one ever open. No yards after catch. No contested catches. No deep threat at all.

It’s more than that. Snaps to Allar at his ankles all day. Only chance was straight drop after snap or straight handoff.

Play design can get players open. The routes used today were boring and unimaginative.

 

[psualt]

Receivers are bad. Cephas clearly lacking brains or something but seems more athletic. Average teams out there that can put up big numbers. Hard to believe all those teams have better players.

Like chic-fil-a on Sundays

Yes, what’s up with the terribly low snaps over and over!

They had one this year.

It's going to get even worse down the road, too.
OSU has the #1, #8 and #15 WR in 2024 class per 247sports.
PSU has the #67, #68 and #70 WR in 2024 class

On the one play that Drew lateraled to KLS KLS looked to throw and two receivers were standing side by side…..which should never happen. You never want two receivers in same spot because thst draws two defenders to the same spot.

That gets your QB off schedule. The last thing a young QB needs.

Yet we kept trying to throw to them. Weird isn't it?

We also had them attempt two passes of their own.

We need a diamond in the rough like Deon Butler.

Ot when they suck…

 

[cyrizzle]

Yep, no one could get open except KLS on occasion.

 

[Zone-Blitz]

Kaden Prather was a huge miss in the portal

 

[psrurock]

Did you see KLS, he was mugged all day.. why is it never called. We need to be more physical.. We stole a good receiver away from Oregon for next year, but we need them now. Quicker slant patterns..Also OSU was utilizing the Patriot playbook, run off the corner backs and linebackers and throw underneath to Harrison. He killed us.

If only the team had another option to snap the ball, like going under center.

 

[PAgeologist]

I thought they were holding a bunch back for this game. Nope. This offense sucks.

Was hoping so too. But several times in earlier games Drew had all day but had to throw it away because no one got open. Haa as be been worried about that crew all season.
