When Will Chase Be Activated?

by ak513 on Oct 14, 2009 10:28 AM EDT

After seeing TE Daniel Coats drop 2 heart wrenching TD catches, I sat on my couch thinking, Chase Coffman would not have dropped those passes. Although I know Daniel is an excellent blocking Tight End, catching is NOT his forte. I feel as if Chase Coffman could be a very valuable weapon in our offensive arsenal minus his abismal blocking as showcased on Hard Knocks, he can be used in packages with the double Tight End formations or even have him line up in the spread as he did in Missouri. The question is when will he be ready? Will he even see the field this season? If he will not be activated who will be our receiving Tight End? It was evident that Carson showed great disappointment with both of Coat's dropped passes. So the question I present to you is when will Chase Coffman be given a shot and activated?

The problem is

Without him being able to block, the situations that presented themselves for coats won’t be there. And to put him in a spread that means you’re running 3 wide. Would you rather have coles or henry, or chase? He’ll get in the ame in due time, but it’s probably not going to happen much this year. Barring an injury.

Now what I wanna know is if pressley would have caught that certain td pass that johnson dropped.
