‘Rookie WR James Hardy is finding that life in the NFL is a little more difficult than even he thought. In the first half against the Rams, QB Trent Edwards tried to get the ball to Hardy on four occasions, and none of them worked. Hardy has only two catches in four games, both in the win at Jacksonville, where he caught the game-winning TD pass late in the fourth quarter. Hardy had an increased role in the offense because third receiver Roscoe Parrish is out, but it appears he’s not quite ready to shoulder the burden. He is having a tough time learning the offense, and he’s also had a couple of balls in his hands that he didn’t hang on to.’
