Why isn't Marcus Robinson more involved in the offense???

I know Koren has emerged and travis is playing well and Troy makes a play here and there. I haven't seen marcus on the field in a while and i'm confused. We should use Koren and Marcus' height in goaline situations. We could just lob it up to them

the problem is we have too many 'good' recievers. although they may have different styles (twill speed, mrob goalline, taylor route runner), they are all very equal. its going to be tough for a guy to have 100 yds recieving with so many receivers with the same talent. they do use robinson alot near the goal line though, because he is such a tall, jumper.

I am sure that he is fine with it as long as we are winning...and he knows that if he is open, Brad will find him!

M Rob is good WR, he just doesn't always get the seperation but because he is so big and he times his jump balls out so well it makes him a big target. I also think he should be used more but with the speedy koren coming on he's not gonna see as much time.

By the way i preached all weak about lining him and Williamson on the field at the same time, i think thats gonna put some fear into defenders.

I think we don't use him because Brad Johnson can't throw the ball up high enough for Marcus to out jump someone.

I find that kinda hard to believe. Its not like there 40 or 50 yards bombs, but maybe that is the case, either way i've seen marcus have some nice games so i know he has the ability.

I think Marcus is definitely more suited for strong armed quarterbacks than the accurate short armed ones like BJ. I mean he has put up some numbers with very average QBs that just throw the ball out there and he can go get it, BJ is not that type of QB.
