He can provide a lot for this team.  He needs to be targeted more often….

the guy has made some real circus catches but has very little yac skill. Even his paltry production is a huge addition over the STINKO, but that aint sayin’ much. This man has totally underperformed for the expectations and the scenario is eerily like Ocho; they were saying 4 and 5 games ago that he was gonna get significantly better by now. It hasn’t happened and doesn’t look like he’ll meet end of season expectations. this one’s on Josh, bot BB like Stinko was.

You cannot judge a player’s value solely on their “fantasy” stats. The game has many intricacies and roles for a WR besides targets, completions, and YAC. The Pats already have 4 guys (I guess 2 now) ahead of him who get open really well in Brady’s comfort zone of 5-15 yards. As long as he continues to perform the Patriot way and does his job then I for one am satisfied.

He’s out there competing. I noticed he still puts is all into blocking.  Good player, and will make some impact plays down the stretch. 

Time to run Lloyd in shorter routes. Against Miami Brady had very little time to find receivers (4 sacks and many more knock downs). Lloyd was brought in to be a deeper route runner to get safeties away from covering short and in the middle. Need to get Lloyd more involved with 7 to 12 yard completions. Should see Lloyd receiving shorter sideline passes in the future.

Oh god. What a disapointment.  We’re only the number one offense in the league…must be in spite of Llloyd.

Some people are never happy.

Interesting – the 3 games in which he had more than 10 targets were the Patriots 3 losses.

He hits the ground way too easily … I think he hears footsteps , not saying I blame him I would too , just that with the fearless group of receivers Brady has had to throw to this year , I can see him looking at Lloyd less and less , one game early in the year , before I knew it was his reputation , there were two passes in a row thrown to Lloyd , he caught each one , and immediately hit the ground sliding with no one within 5 yards , it appeared as though he could have gained at least 10-12 additional yards on both passes – but did not make the effort … another pass to him shortly after that was a sideline pass that he immediately took out of bounds instead of turning upfield .. again , it did not looke like there was anyone right on him …. I was curious to see if we heard about an injury or somethig after the game – we did not , but I did notice not long after that  that he was getting less and less attention from Brady … I am wondering if the team sees him as too soft after the catch and will be content to use him as a decoy … seeing only two or three looks per game

Brandon Lloyd is not a bust. He’s a decoy. He is not suppose to catch a lot of balls. He’s just there to go outside the numbers to make room for the TE’s and Wes Welker. But since Gronk is gone and Edelman is gone. He’s going to have to play a little more so don’t say he’s a bust.
