Re: Around the nfl week 14

I seem to recall a conversation earlier this season about ODB being overrated... anyone still want to make that argument?

No one who wants to retain an ounce of credibility.

I'd go with Brown based on his overall resume, but soon it may be a different conversation.

Tough call there. Imagine ODB in Pittsburgh's offense running the whole route tree getting 180ish targets?
Tough.

But being where they are now, I put Brown ahead of ODB. Brown's special teams tip the scale for me.

Re: Around the nfl week 14

Id lean Brown too, but ODB isn't far behind.

DeAndre Hopkins and Julio Jones a close second tier.

ODB does the spectacular stuff but I wonder if his overall production is lacking to be considered the best WR in the NFL. His catches will make highlight reel film but he is almost like a more flashy version of Victor Cruz who will hit homeruns but often times disappear from the offense otherwise.

Julio Jones leads the league in receptions and yards. As far as td's he has five less than the leader.

176 receptions

2,625 yards

24 TD

Re: Around the nfl week 14

Speaking WR who aren't tops in the league:

Dez Bryant of Dallas Cowboys won't be shut down for season, Jerry Jones says

"Dez is a passionate player. He's a passionate practice player. But he just hasn't had enough of it to cope with what we need him to be doing right now."

Bryant caught one pass for 9 yards in Sunday's loss to the Green Bay Packers. He dropped two passes and had another pass deflect off his hands for an interception on the Cowboys' first drive of the game.
After the game Bryant said he let the rainy weather affect him, changing his gloves three times during the game.

"Now, that was an aberration, in my mind, in Green Bay," Jones said. "I don't know if it was the slick ball. I don't know that anybody does. But whatever it was, we shouldn't expect to have that kind of result or that kind of performance from Dez or certain other areas of the team."


LOL seriously? wow...this cowboys season is hilarious

Jerry Jones always makes excuses for his draft pick projects and Dez is a classic Jerry Jones draft pick. He saw the flash and athleticism and ignored everything else.

NFL fines Vontaze Burfict for low hit that Big Ben deemed intentional - CBSSports.com

Burfict is such a POS.
