2. Doug Baldwin isn’t coverable by anyone

Doug Baldwin had another monster day. He added six catches, 82 yards and 3 touchdowns to his already impressive numbers this season.

In fact, he’s been on fire now for a while. Baldwin has 8 touchdowns in just the last three games.

The reason is because Baldwin is open on almost every play. Opposing teams struggle to have anyone in his zip code at times.

It should be noted that this has been true for Baldwin for the last couple of years. The difference now is that he’s getting more targets, and those targets are coming when he’s further downfield.

Wilson is finally getting the ball to Baldwin when it matters. That means that Baldwin’s stats are finally beginning to match what he’s show he’s capable on the tape.
