Golden Tate played 29% of the snaps last night

Why bother trading for him? Don't give me that shit about the playbook.... You don't trade for a guy this late in the season to not use him

2 weeks...

They needed a field stretcher. They got a midget redundant with two other receivers already on the roster.

Bullshit.... what did he have, 2 catches? The guy lives for third downs and we're throwing swing passes to Clement with the game on the line

What field stretchers were available?

Desean Jackson, for one.

Maybe they shouldn't have dropped Torrey Smith. I thought the move to "upgrade" at that spot was wrong. Smith fit in really well. The other guy got injured, so hard to say, but Smith was fine.

I’m agreeing with you. It’s not like they had 2 practices with him...

Desean was never available. Tampa wasn't trading him.

Oh gotcha sorry, thought you were saying "only two weeks"

Trading a three for Tate was a bad move to begin with. This wasn't the team's top priority.
