Raiders coach Hue Jackson attributed Darrius Heyward-Bey's reduced Week 9 role to certain "sets" in which Heyward-Bey was not involved.
Heyward-Bey entered the game as Oakland's best receiver for the past month, so it was surprising to see him with scant playing time against the Broncos. He didn't catch a pass and was targeted just once. Jacoby Ford started over Heyward-Bey opposite Denarius Moore. We suspect something other than offensive "sets" was up with Heyward-Bey. His fantasy value is tenuous.

I have this awesome idea. Lets not target our best WR and kill my team.
