We have seriously overrated Justin Blackmon


Quote:He did play a whole season, in his rookie year.

 

You can call it downplaying, but I call it putting perspective on the situation.

 

He's got a knack for getting shut out in games and being very ordinary.

 

When the matchup is right for him, yes - you can feed him the ball and he'll produce.  He hasn't shown that he can be relied on on the field as well as off the field.
 

Lol, we are using a rookie season to say whether someone is elite or not?

 

Last year in 4 games he had 29 catches for 415 yards.  If he kept that same production up over the course of the season, we are looking at 126 catches for 1660 yards.  That's pretty elite to me.

 

His line for his four games in 2013.

 

5              136



14           190



6              58



4              31



 

He was nowhere near being shut out.  His worst game was against arguable the top defense in the NFL. 



 

I feel like people are trying to make themselves feel better by saying he wasnt very good.  He was good...with the potential to be really good.
