Okay, so Gathers may not be a good blocker.
But what if he presented a threat to a defense in a different way -- as a pass catcher?
If you're a DC, would you rather defend against a blocker? Or a pass catcher?
An offense breaks the huddle -- two tight ends. One's an okay blocker, the other is suspect. But one can score a TD against you. Even if the crappy blocker executes a crappy block, so what? WRs execute crappy blocks all the time.
The crappy blocking TE and the decent blocking TE do their thing on a run-play fake. Freeze the LBs and secondary for a second, three WRs and a pass catching TE are on the loose.
I like the odds.
Please feel free to dissect and debunk.
