Pep Hamilton Talks Production For Reggie Wayne

Pep Hamilton on Reggie Wayne’s production the last two weeks:

“Within the flow of the game, there are times where teams kind of scheme, rotate, take away certain guys.

“We feel like we have the flexibility within the system to keep everyone involved.”

Bowen’s Analysis: It speaks to the Hall of Fame type of volume for Wayne when questions come up at press conferences on a lack of production from Wayne after back-to-back 3 and 4 catch games. The crazier stat is that Wayne and T.Y. Hilton have been held out of the end zone, even with Andrew Luck leading the NFL in touchdown passes (9).

This is simply a byproduct of the weapons around Luck. Wayne himself said it best on his weekly radio show. He compared it back to his days with the likes of Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison and how the touches might not be what most first round picks expect. Wayne doesn’t get too caught up in such things, knowing that wins and losses is the ultimate deciding factor. He also knows that when the game is on the line, the ball is in all likelihood coming towards Wayne.
