JetNation Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 While Fitzpatrick was horrible, he did receive some help to guide him to the bench. Let’s look at the plays where the receivers failed to bail out Fitzpatrick. Assistant’s Failure: 1) This play is a two part failure. It’s 3rd down and 4 in the first quarter, and the Jets come out with four receivers. A three receiver bunch to the right of the formation, with Brandon Marshall to the left of the formation. The pre-snap read should allow Fitzpatrick to see that the defensive player on Marshall is playing off the line, making this a relatively easy conversion for a first down. The defender is playing past the first down marker, so this should have been a conversion. However, Fitzpatrick is locked into the other side from the start of this play, and is rewarded when Quincy Enunwa gets open in the intermediate area. Enunwa runs a great route on this play, because he doesn’t just run a straight out route, because his primary defender is playing to the inside. If he runs a linear route, and then out, the defender has all his momentum going towards the sidelines, and therefore it is easier for him to jump into the passing lane. Instead, Enunwa runs right at him, which causes the defender to hesitate, allowing Enunwa to get open to the outside. Unfortunately, that’s the only thing Quincy did right on this play, because he flat out drops the ball. This is a good pass from Fitzpatrick, but Enunwa lets the ball go right through his hands for a critical drop. It’s a terrible drop by him, because it kills the drive for the Jets. Conclusion: Quincy Enunwa is extremely talented, and could quite possibly be the odds on favorite to lead this receiving group in two years. He has the size and speed to dominate at the position, but seems to suffer from concentration drops from time to time. On this play, he makes a horrible drop, which costs the Jets a drive. There have been reports that Enunwa has been working on his catching after practice, so that is encouraging, but most of his drops seem to be on easy passes, so it might be a mental issue. Former Jet Stephen Hill suffered from the same issue, where he was looking to run before he secured the pass, which caused many drop balls. Hopefully, Enunwa corrects the problem as the season moves forward. Forum Questions: A) What do you think the ceiling is on Enunwa? B) If you have a current player comp for Enunwa, who is it?

hokiejetfan92 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Enunwa's ceiling is sort of an Anquan Bolden in my eyes, maybe a poor man Hines Ward. Inconsistent hands are keeping him from being a legit threat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inconsistent hands are keeping him from being a legit threat That's interesting. Bolden had much better hands IMO, it was probably the biggest trait for him, since he wasn't as fast as Enunwa. However, I'd be elated if his career turns out anywhere close to Boldin. I was thinking more Delanie Walker since they seemed to fit that mismatch type with very good receiving skills but still versatile. If you are the GM this offseason, what contract do you offer Enunwa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 saying enunwa in the same sentence as stephen hill with regard to hands is flat out wrong. hill's hands were made out of a hard substance as yet unknown to man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his first year playing, Stephen Hill had a drop percentage of: 10.6% In his first year of consistent playing time last year, Enunwa had a drop percentage of: 10.9% In his second year, Stephen Hill had a drop percentage of: 1.7% In his second year, Enunwa has a drop percentage of: 4.0% Hill was bad with concentration drops, and Enunwa seems to show the same type of lack of concentration at times. However, Enunwa is better at attacking the ball with his hands, whereas Hill was more of a body catcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The secondary played horrible, because they gave up too much space to these receivers and Luck picked them apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
