Sunday just got harder

[jtreal3]

Didn't say he wasn't important to the team as currently constructed. Just said his season has been underwhelming. Is it not fair to have expected more than 754 yards coming into this season? He doesn't have No 1 WR numbers. It is what it is. Going forward, I would hope he could produce more.

11-4 bout to 12-4 NFC NORTH CHAMPS PLAYOFFS! SO...Who really fuckin care that the man only had 754 yards this season!? Anywho...BEAR DOWN!

Crap! I hate it when Nagy draws names out of a hat.

 

[Spunky Porkstacker]

Imagine ARob's #s if Mahomes was throwing to him all season.

 

[Toast88]

They mentioned during the broadcast that ARob bruised his ribs, but came back. I would guess that’s the sort of injury that feels worse a few days later.

Because how the offense ran this year I don't think it was underwhelming at all. He was 33rd in yards receiving per game for the NFL which isn't great, but a good fit for what we do...If we want a more tradition #1 receiver stat, then we could try and force the ball to him more and take Cohen out of the equation as a consistent weapon.

 

[HeHateMe]

Agreed which is why I said hopefully he picks it up in postseason and perhaps next year after being another year from the ACL injury, he will be more productive.

as long as Mitchell doesn't get him killed out there with errant throws, I expect bigger things from ARob47

 

[BearDownZZ]

I don't mind AR's production. It wasn't because he sucked. He beat man, had 1 drop the entire year and made several difficult catches.

He got less targets because Cohen was a matchup nightmare. Burton was effective, Gabriel was better than just a #4 and Miller was good enough to garner touches.

I expect us to throw for more yardage next year and have more production to spread around and you'll see him closer to 75-1000. But I don't think he'll ever be a 100 catch WR in this offense because we don't feature one guy.

The one thing that I think is valid is that we probably don't need to overspend on a WR. And I think Miller is good enough that he'll eventually be a bigger part of the offense.

While 754 yards is underwhelming he’s will have missed 3 games due to injury. He’s been very effective when out there.

If you don't care then not sure why you bothered to respond. I made an observation. It is not the end of the world but personally his numbers are underwhelming.

True No 1 WRs get open enough that the ball comes to them naturally so nothing to do with forcing the ball. Like I said hopefully he will be more productive next year but no need to pretend.

If you project his numbers out to 16 games, he still doesn't crack 1,000 yards. He is at this point more of a No 2 WR which No 2 WR are still effective.

 

[TL1961]

Vikings:
Linval Joseph questionable
Eric Kendricks doubtful
Xavier Rhodes doubtful

Those guys are doubtful to start.

Hopefully Harrison Smith is doubtful to finish.

I seriously want one of the OL to smack Harrison Smith in the face. He cost us a first round bye. Dirty SOB.

Agreed. Like I said his numbers are underwhelming but he was still effective. I expected a true #1 WR. Hopefully next season his numbers go up as his knee should be a complete non issue

I caught a lot of grief for pointing out an article I read that a grade 3 ACL tear typically will make great players average and average players outta the league.

ARob peaked at 14,000 yards and now he's a 700 yard guy. 14TDs to 4TDs....

Before anyone has a cow, I'm not saying he's not important, but like other posters noted - he didn't play up to the contract.

Wait, did Smith tell Nagy to sit Trubs against the Giants? I think the best revenge would be beating them and knocking them out of the playoffs.

He was the focal point in Jax. The ball gets spread around here.

His numbers have nothing to do with his previous injury. Oh, by the way..you lost the bet. As predicted.

 

[CaptnSUG]

I'm pleasantly surprised that Eddie Jackson is doubtful and not already ruled out.

 

[Hi everybody]

AR has filled his role in this offense beautifully. Sure, his numbers could be more eye raising but I think we all knew the ball was going to be spread around and so you could have argued the value of his contract from day one.

But he has held down the WR1 spot and gets respected by defenses as that no. 1 guy - that's important. He's also been the consummate professional and thankfully we don't have to deal with a diva type. In many regards it has been money well spent. That said, I do expect bigger numbers from him next year.

You're right! I lost. Congratulations on your called it!

 

[JD Trendleton]

We need Allen Robinson, I don't know if we can win without him.

Very true, it's all about the respect the D gives and them having to use their best assets to cover and help on him. And he needs more targets, should be getting 8-10 a game and he's probably averaging about 6-7, I expect to see Mitch and Allen continue to get better with time. I prefer Robinson over Jeffery,personally.
