Quote:It absolutely doesn't matter.  You're the one stuck on a YPC stat to decide if you like a guy.  If you're going to use YPC, then it doesn't matter at all how the receiver achieves it.  If he consistently gets me 13, I don't care if he skips down the field with the ball, or out muscles guys down field; the outcome was the same either way.  They don't count your yards at half value if they didn't come "the mad dog way" . 

 

If a guy gets x yards per catch, it doesn't matter at all how he does it.  It's x yards per catch.  You asked for x and got it, so you went immediately to complaining about "how" he got them.  Which just reinforces how little you even really care about your own position, you'll immediately morph to a new one just to keep on complaining.  And yes, it's fairly transparently petty.

 

I did cite YPC and it is important. But I also think its important to be able to mix up HOW you attack teams and HOW that YPC is got. Otherwise, Teams will be able to adjust to what you do easier. You need to always be able to keep the opposing defense guessing, 

 

I didn't articulate my point good enough, initially. 

 

Em Sanders to me is not helping the passing offense become more dynamic, since we have a player that provides a lot of what he does in Ace Sanders. 

 

I think we need to be looking for that Terrell Owens or Vincent Jackson kind of skill set at this point. Thats what we are missing. A red zone target from the WR position.
