Throughout his career from PIT to NYG he was terrible on fade routes. He was big but not a good leaper. Used his body well, very good on slants but terrible on jump balls especially on fades.
I think the problem behind that is throughout his tenure here, that was the go-to move in the redzone and every defense knew it was coming. It's hard to defend 6'5, but it's less hard when every defensive coach knows that's what you're going to try first.
