Why is David Boston not producing???

May have my head in the sand, but I'm not quite ready to give up on Boston yet. First I want to see what Flutie can do with him. I know, a slender thread of hope but it at least has me curious.

I think Boston is too concerned about looking like Lee Haney to catch passes. The ball just bounces off his biceps. Seriously, they should convert this guy to a TE (he has the size now). Think of the damage he'd do at that position- another Sharpe.

That would be pretty cool.....but I'm not sure that Boston can block like Sharpe.

I've already written about 25 "Schottenheimer sucks" posts so far, and I'm too weary to write another one here.

Just something to consider: I watched this god-awful Chargers-Bears game last week. Offensive coordinator/idiot Cam Cameron has been playing "Martyball" (= run, run, pass, punt) all year, but when Flutie got the call the play selection was so much more lively it was a night & day difference. I like Boston's chances to become a Top 10 (or at least 20) WR again if Flutie is the QB if only because they'll open up the playcalling somewhat.

I understand wanting to take advantage of a horse like LT, but to go against 8 Bears stacked at the line and not run ONE play-action deep route is ridiculous. And if you have to run the ball on 1st down, what about a counter play instead of between the guard and center all day. Sheesh!

Anyway, this was too long of a post. Bottom line: keep your eye on the Chargers' play-calling, if you want to wade through the misery that is the Chargers. At the very least you'll get some truth out of outspoken Marcellus Wiley - he's my only hero on this team.
