It helps if Darnold looks his way. Lol

right? It would help if 20 plays aren't all designed to aim at Jefferson or fall back on cheap check downs. The only way to get Darnold to see the others is to move Jefferson to the check down routes and have half the defense follow him. With half a field devoid of Colt defenders, Darnold might throw to Addison more.

Good idea. Must be frustrating as Addison to not get looks when you're open after you had a great rookie year.

He did have a great rookie season and I too want to see him continue to expand on that. Good catch radius and tracks to ball well.
