OBJ
Engram
Shepherd is good
Barkley
A superstar WR, a good #2, a very good receiving TE, a potential star RB, and Eli. Not an Eli fan, but he has won 2 SBs. Holding that to 15 points is impressive IMO
Most teams dont have that on multiple offensive levels. That's a very tough matchup when they're healthy.
Agree, the Steelers, Chiefs, and Falcons are the only teams I can think of with the firepower NYG have.
Even then. Steelers don't have the TE. Falcons dont have the TE either. They both used to, but not now.
Chiefs probably have the best offensive firepower in the league. If Mahomes keeps this up (which I don't expect to happen), that game could be trouble.
But this week with NE they have Gronk. That's it. No WRs, no RBs really. Of course Brady makes everyone way better, but they are deficient in skill positions.

Steelers dont have the TE but they have the best WR in the game, Bell if he comes back and last years Biletnikoff Award winner. Falcons have a double header in the backfield and a WR who some think was the best WR in the draft. Chiefs are loaded and Saints have a lot of talent on the offensive side of the ball as well. The Browns are loaded as well, Mayfield, Gordon, Landry, Njoku, Hyde, Chubb.. Would still take Brady and Gronk over all the above though.

Ya that guy Antonio Brown? He absolutely destroyed us and we had good coverage on him and he still destroyed us when we were playing man coverage. With OBJ alot of it was on 3rd and longs where we are dropping in zones and that pick play, no question he beat Ramsey a couple times and he is the 2nd best WR in the game but let's chill out on acting like Ramsey is trash because he cant guard OBJ. Maybe before the illegal contact rule he could but nowadays where no contact is allowed it's really tough. Ramsey is a premium level player and OBJ had nothing but praise and love for him after the game to the media and same with Eli,so ya he got 111 yards and 11 catches but that doesnt mean Ramsey didnt play well. Not like he is going against some garbage WR like AJ Green or Cory Davis who he can legit run routes for. I get it expectations are extremely high for Ramsey and he likes it that way but we also have to be realistic and say hes not just gonna absolutely shut down an All-Pro.
Agreed w/respect to all of the Ramsey Hating. Most people are saying that he should shut up and simply play the game. Remember that talking and getting opposing players off their game is part of his game and if he shuts up as some are demanding, then he'll be off of his game.
BTW... OBJ utilized pick plays vs. Ramsey throughout the whole game...
