McCants: Your thoughts?

[firstdown]

I think the term I heard used about him is that he did not pratice well. I don't know if that is the nice way to say that he was lazy or he just did not perform well in pratice droped balls etc... If I remember correctly he was asked about his pratice performance and addmitted he did not do well in pratice. He also said that he had always had problems performing in pratice but it never effected him on game day. I guess there will be guys that have trouble turning it on when its just pratice and can turn it on game day. If this is the case it can be hard as a coach to distinguish the difference between these players and could take time to give that player a chance at game day.

Thanks guys, I just wanted to be sure I had not missed anything on this. I really do think that between Jacobs and McCants we could have a #1 reciever in waiting. Playcallling is the key on this in my opinion. Hopefully these guys will see the opportunity and step up.

Yeah, as long as he puts his best foot forward at practices, that's all that matters. I mean just TRY. Gardner put forth 110% by staying after and HE got to play. There's definitely something else going on. Maybe laziness. Who knows?
