Question: Will the fade route ever get called consistently in the red zone
Answer: It’s the most simple play in football. It’s no longer the typical wide receivers where you’re 5-9, 5-10 and can run. “Megatron” (Calvin Johnson) is 12-foot-3 -- it’s easy pitch and catch. Just throw the ball up or throw it on the line, but put it up so the guy can go get it. (Arizona’s Larry) Fitzgerald made a living off that in college and here in the pros. Me and Calvin are trying to get there. … I think that should be one of our plays down there.
