Meyer also discussed in detail the offense's identity, reiterating what he has said at times this season – that while the team mostly has run effectively and did so again Sunday, "We still have not identified any downfield passing game."
Meyer said much of that can be attributed to fluidity at the position, with wide receiver DJ Chark Jr., wide receiver/returner Jamal Agnew and running back/wide receiver Travis Etienne Jr. – all projected at times this season to be deep threats – all now on injured reserve.
Veterans Laquon Treadwell and Tavon Austin – who joined the team in June and August, respectively – have emerged as key contributors.
"The pass-game identity we're still not there, but how can get there with the [continual] rotation of receivers we have right now?" Meyer said. "The pass game is a lot of timing and comfort. You have a 22-year-old quarterback and you keep rotating receivers …. It's no one's fault, but guys get dinged. Guys get hurt.
"What's your vertical stretch? We're seeing a lot of teams play man coverage on us right now. We have to beat man coverage. That's a big issue. When we do, we're really good."
Meyer was asked if he was concerned about the issue hurting Lawrence's growth.
"We have to fix it," he said. "Am I concerned? Sure. I'm concerned about everything. That's the reality of the game of football. The pass-game part is about consistency and timing. When you're kind of rolling through guys, it's a little more difficult on a quarterback."
