"Elevating his brand to prime-time status will mean putting the ball in the end zone more frequently," Schwartz said. "Look at the top receivers in the game today - Odell Beckham, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown - and they're all household names, scoring twice as many touchdowns as Jarvis year after year. Catches move the ball down the field, but big scoring plays and winning are the best ways to build a personal brand in today's highlight-obsessed NFL."
Landry surely knows this. He's in a contract year, and touchdowns could also be the difference between good money and elite money.
"I wish there was a true blueprint, then everybody would follow it," Landry said of truly going national. "I've been blessed with the platform that I have. I'm staying true to myself. And let my work speak for itself."

Miami isn't a team that scores a lot of TD's - period. We are S FL and we should have superstars, however, the conservative nature of the team in recent years makes players less popular. Gase helped Kenny get money, and I'm sure he will make Jarvis a very rich man

This article causes me pause more than it does positive feelings. Terrell Owens, Chad Johnson (aka Ochocinco), Randy Moss and the worst of all, Deion Sanders...phenomenal wide receivers who were more prima dona, all about themselves and building their own "brand" than they were about a genuine TEAM player. Please keep in mind, I'm taking NOTHING away from the talent of these receivers. There were incredible, but I couldn't stand any of them as they were more about themselves.
I pray to God Jarvis Landry follows more in the footsteps of a Jerry Rice, Cris Carter, the "Marks" Brothers, Nat Moore and Wes Welker...phenomenal receivers who were respected by fans for what they did on the field and not for running their mouths...and becoming a cancer in the locker room. -

Dallas was already a Super Bowl caliber team thanks to Jimmy Johnson with Troy Aikmen, Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin and Daryl Johnson. The addition of Sanders wasn't the factor that "brought" a Super Bowl to Dallas.
And as I am an avid Sanders hater I'll also *** this. Deion Sanders sucked as a DB and here's why...he was a WIMP and avoided being hit. Quarterbacks that knew this never threw to the outside when Sanders was covering as they knew his speed could result in an interception however, if the QB threw to the inside, Sanders got out of the way because he was too much of a KITTYKAT (bypassing the filter) to take a hit.
Absolutely LOVED the 1996 NFC Championship game between Panthers and the Cowboys when Sanders had to be carted off the field when he was rolled up on.
Sorry, when it comes to Sanders, I tend to go on a rant! -
Neon Deion!! Dude was awesome, and was a good baseball player, too.

I don't want to see Jarvis Landry focus more on a "brand" and become that arrogant prima dona that I can't stand. I want Landry to have the character and dignity of Rice, Carter, Welker and Moore. -

I just like the tone he sets. He wants to be a superstar. Why not. He seems like he is going about it in a blue collar kind of way. Even the swag he promotes seems to be good quality well designed affordable stuff. Landry is just my kind of player. A little cocky, but he backs it up. And I've never seen a me first attitude from him. He plays for the team.
