    Ummm Chambers was a sure handed receiver.

    He has to type with one hand so he'll be a little slower than normal.

    For who? Not Miami.

    He could pull in the circus catch and otherwise drop a breadbasket on biscuit wheels.

    not really true. He had his share of drops on the easier catches, we just remember all the spectacular catches he made. I always felt that he struggled with passes thrown into his body, but was great at the passes either outside or above him.

    Chambers validated every stalkers dream by divorcing his wife and marrying her. I'm pretty sure his gravestone would read, "***** would not leave me alone!..." He was awesome and fun to watch. The refs would often have to take forever to rule on his instant replays. In the meantime everyone got to see what an amazing play he just pulled off. The refs just had a hard time believing a human being could actually pull it off. Meanwhile, the opposing team has to endure watching just what an incredible specimen Chambers was. Egos and testicles shrinking more and more with every replay on the jumbotron.

    I suggest you guys pull some tape on his spectacular 2005 season.

    Does Amazon at least give you special pricing when you order by the case?

    Jarvis has a record for catches in his first two seasons. Im not worried about him. Parker cant get in the field, so he is not dropping for now either

    Wow. Some people are remembering CC in a romantic vein. He was the most maddening player we've ever had to me. He was just blisteringly inconsistent. He'd make the banana all world catch and then drop the easy wide open ones. I can't tell you how much drywall sparkle and replacement items I've had to purchase because of CC. He just seemed that good because the only other receivers in a decades time we had worth anything was Welker until we botched that and OG. I mean, I remember us being so desperate at WR that Marino himself served as character witness in court for Marty Booker to get him on the team.

    Can CC coach? I would imagine. You don't have to be a pro bowl anything to be a coach and most haven't been. But yeah, CC dropped truckloads of passes. Like in BIG games too that could have either gotten us to the playoffs or further in them.

    What you are describing reminds me of McMichael. He would make so many good plays, but when you needed that big play he would drop it or fumble it.

    Yeah same deal. So capable while so inconsistent. Those were back in the Cardiac Phins days. I still remember McMichael getting called out for dancing with the cheerleaders on the field lol.

    I suggest you actually evaluate a player over his career, not just his greatest season.

    Chris Chambers would make all the hard catches in spectacular fashion. He would also drop an alarming number of balls that were right on the numbers.

    That is the facts. Lets not be revisionist here.

    Isn't Welker on the staff as well?
