Quote:People notice when you are right - it's just not as much fun to point out as when you are wrong. :woot:
I also think this whole think is greater in your perception than it is in reality, TMD. You don't need to seek validation. If you aren't feeling any after 39,000 posts, it isn't going to suddenly happen here.
That's a very valid point sir. See, TMD we are trying to help.
I am looking forward to seeing how Brown plays this week, and Burton upon his return as well. Both of them look like they have got some skills.
He does have a shot at 1000 yards.
I like how the coaches are putting him in the slot. I believe it's the best area for him to play and really do damage.
The guy is a beast. Throw it up and let him out fight the defenders for the ball. I really like what I have seen this year so far.

Quote:haha, no, I'm just one of those people that for whatever reason everyone remembers everything I say when its wrong but no one ever seems to remember anything I say when its correct/ ahead of the curve. Its just annoying.,...and usually causes me to have to remind everyone. but whatever.... It is what it is. It'll probably always be that way too. Karma is just against me. Always has been.
Maybe it's because you think your opinions are infallible and then annoyingly try to cram that opinion down everyone's throat by hijacking threads to the point you get suspended from the board.
Wild guess.
Quote:I never advocate trading legit stars who have their whole prime ahead of them, so your little attempt at humor is a flop.
You wanted to trade Cecil Shorts. Does he not fit your mold of, "legit stars who have their whole prime ahead of them"?

I don't consider Cecil Shorts a star player. Star players play like star players independent of their surroundings, which Blackmon does. Shorts, OTOH, needs Blackmon for him to perform at his apex.

He's basically uncoverable from the slot. Its genius.

What has Blackmon done that Shorts hasn't that makes Blackmon a superior player at this point in their careers?

Given it's a short sample of two games for Blackmon this season (but it goes back to last season too) but have you not seen them play? If you have, I know you have, I'd say the answer is pretty obvious. Blackmon's ability >> Shorts' ability. Shorts will be a great complimentary receiver but Justin is on an entirely different level in terms of what he's capable of. We're just seeing the beginning with Blackmon. If he keeps his head on straight he has incredible potential, he's the most talented player this team has had since Freddy T's younger years. He's a special player and it's going to be fun to watch him and Cecil grow together with a legitimate quarterback. Toss in a true pass catching TE and this offense is going to be exciting to watch. Hopefully we have a new offensive scheme to go along with all this.
If you didn't insist you were right all the time before it was possible to know and just counter everybody arguments with the lalala I'm right and because you don't agree your all idiots defense people wouldn't have so much fun crowing when your wrong.
some basic people skills and people would be more likely to offer validation
Feels like group therapy on this board today
Shorts is struggling with double coverage due to the type of receiver he is, he is a speed receiver best on the deep routes being forced to run short routes to try get a first meaning he hasn't had a real opportunity to use his speed
both have weaknesses and strengths
Shorts isn't great at catching through contact which is something he needs to work on
Blackman is better at it but doesn't have the separation speed to break away from defenders with turf in front of him
that being said he looks faster than last year but I remember the Texans game where he laborered to get free on a deep slant
Added we need to see what happens when he is double covered urging the broncos misscouted him and thought they could end him with press coverage I don't think they will make that mistake again
Still looking forward to what happens next week
He'll get 1200.... Remember... he eats up garbage time......
Quote:Defensive coordinators are going to start scheming to shut him down. We'll see how that impacts his production moving forward. Is it possible? Absolutely, especially after watching this guy the past couple of weeks. It'll be one of the fun stories to follow the rest of the year.
I realize this would largely depend upon personnel, but I wonder if defenses would have more success against him in man or zone.
Blackmon has a knack for finding open spots in zone coverage, and he seems too physical for most DBs, especially if lined up in the slot against a typical nickel back.
Quote:Or trade him while he still has value.
^^ LOL

No, thats Shorts.
Blackmon beasts all the time/ the entire game.

So now our OC is a genius? Huh, i guess i'll disregard the rest of your comments from the previous weeks.

Touting one specific move as genius doesn't tout the entire body of work as genius.
If Justin Blackmon has a good QB with a sub decent Oline I think he'll have a great season based on this week's performance. It would appear that him and Chad Henne do better than him & Blaine.
Quote:no karma meaning just the way things happen for whatever reason.
Things happen for a reason. Typically bad situations come after a series of bad decisions and choices. Don't blame Karma.
