Kito Poblah has 2 catches in 6 games. Give Stephan Adekolu the starts instead; made some great catches in the pre-season and couldn't do any worse.
The ball has to be thrown to a receiver before he can catch it. Poblah caught the only ball thrown to him tonight in the fourth quarter. Adekolu dropped the only one thrown to him, on the final drive. Haidara, who started for Iannuzzi, had six balls thrown to him. He caught two and drew a pass interference call on another but had two drops. Gore had five balls thrown to him. He caught two, including the pass fom Arceneaux for his first TD catch of the year.CardiacKid wrote:Kito Poblah has 2 catches in 6 games.

Joe Paopao raves about Poblah's talent. At least he has shown this year that he can catch the ball when it's thrown to him. I wouldn't mind seeing Adekolu get another chance on the wide side. He seems to have more upside than Haidara. But unless the Lions are going to try harder to involve all of their receivers, it doesn't matter who is out there. Most balls are being thrown to the running back and two slots.
