LOL. Howsabout for Vincent Jackson, less than half as bad, or Fitz, less than a third as bad without the problems?
He is in pretty good company .It was just a couple of years ago that Randy Moss and TO were considered to be the best WRs in the NFL. You could deduce that its what you do after catching the ball that is more important .
Everyone knows that Brandon Marshall should take no blame for his drops....... It's all Chad Henne's fault.
In spite of being on this list, I still like BM on our team. And there are others on that list who are pretty good too. I don't see fans of 39, 40 or 41 suggesting that they aren't really that good 'cause they drop too many balls.
Awwww someone is upset that their team cant hang with the Heat. Dont worry KP, only 2 more games and it will all be over.
291 for 328... not shabby in comparison. I'm too lazy to look, but I'm sure thats more receptions than the rest of our WR corps combined haha
No one can dispute that Marshall is a top WR but mistakes do hurt the team and are worth pointing out. Penalties are another issue, with Marshall 6th worst WR at 5. IMO, a VG player is able to correct some of these mistakes. The same can be said on other players, adding missed tackles, blocks, and drops by DBs. More importantly to me is how many mistakes a player has which really mattered. How many cost the team a score, big gain or loss, first down, or field position (eg- 3rd and 9 inside the 5)? I've asked PFF if they can supply that info. Anyone recall big play mistakes?
On Henne to Beast? Sure, henne missed a wide open Beast in the EZ twice that I can recall, probably more.
