Ebron had a great season, and he was a great addition to the team. But since he's kind of an athletic but weak TE (Reich limits his snap count and tries to use him more on passing downs) I can't help but wonder if he was just soft and weak for this game. Didn't even show up, never held onto the football, couldn't take a hit. That might be a real problem .

We know what we have in him. Great in the redzone, question mark in between. Overall a a weapon but needs to be managed as long as he continues with stupid drops.

Yep and fro what we are paying him he is a Bargain. 2 yr 13mil, all the guarantee was the first season. He has been worth every penny and I expect he will be next year.

We should be adding weapons, not subtracting them.

Anyone suggesting we dump Ebron should be banned.

And Gimmick should just be banned in general.

Doyle and Ebron make a good combination

Outside the red zone, throw to Doyle. He doesn't drop it

In the Red zone, throw to Ebron.

Losing Doyle really hurt this offense.

Gimmick is just an average troll. It's irritating, and I will call it out, but it hasn't done anything egregious... other than being born (its poor mom). We don't need to ban it yet

Ebron is great when allowed to be an “icing” type player and he’s mediocre when required to be a full time contributor. Reich and Ballard both recognize it. Hell, to his credit, I think Ebron does to. That’s why Reich’s pitch to him was a factor in his signing. A player that doesn’t understand his limitations would have likely been offended by it. Unless he demands to be paid like a true, full time Pro Bowl TE I hope the fans don’t turn on him. He is who he is, and when allowed to be used correctly he’s a hell of a weapon.

Why not just play him at WR? Walk him out wide and see who follows him. If he gets a short CB, it's an advantage. They walk out a LB, it's an advantage.
