Nope but i do think overall they improved the team. The only question to that if they did or not is Meachem replacing Jackson. I just happen to think he is going to do well for us and im not really concerned with it. I liked the pickup Meachem is still only 27. Now we dont have to draft a WR in the high rounds and can concentrate on defense and get another pass rusher.

They had some nice pickups and AJ has definitely softened the blow of losing several Pro Bowlers and several solid contributors.

This guy Boltjolt called me out for being a homer before the season started so I figured I'd recall the thread to see who the homer was.

, C-Mon...no GM in the NFL would take Tamme over Gates if offered straight up and that includes yours. Tamme owes his carer to Peyton.Quote:
Rivers had the worst OL in the league and didnt even throw for 4,000 for the first time in 5 seasons but did get sacked the most times in his career. And Dreesen is a 2nd rate TE withe first rate QB. I suppose he is better than Gates too ![]() Vincent Jackson never had 70 receptions in a season for us(had 69 once and had 69 this year for TB) but he was the most sought after WR and he certainly is better than Thomas who had many more receptions. Stats are nice but if you also believe Welker is the best WR in the NFL the past 5 years because of his receptions...well, then, i dont know what to tell you. Quote:
Again, Not sure how stats show he is better. I recall many here saying he drops too many passes. And Floyd did miss some games as predicted but not as many as usual. Floyd is as reliable as they come...when he is healthy. I mean your comparing your offensive stats to ours which our offense was well down the charts this year compared to usual. This would be like comparing Deckers stats last year to Floyds, but ill give Decker some props but he isnt some stud. Just benefitted from having a sure HOF'er instead of Tebow. Is Lance Moore a stud whoi puts up good numbers with Brees? Quote:

Which is one reason why I thought your predictions in this thread were premature. You were comparing SD receivers to Denver receivers with Tebow at QB. I knew Thomas was a stud because I saw it with the most inconsistent passer in the league last season. Again, he finished off the season last year as one of the hottest Wide Receivers in the league. Which is what I was predicting in this thread BEFORE the season. Now, who's the homer? ![]() Last edited by Popcorn Sutton; 01-02-2013 at 07:44 PM.. |

Sounds very familiar dont it. I guess nobody likes to hear somebody is better than their guy. You guys even defended Cutler who was a big douche and still isnt a great QB. And ill say it now, Welker is not the best WR in the NFL. Do you think he is? Quote:
Quote:
And Thomas had 27 receptions in the last 8 weeks of 2011. Two of which, he had zero receptions. Not what id call killing it but you said last 8 weeks of the season. If your counting the playoffs, he had 37 his last 8 games. Quote:
True..but again, this board was saying Tebow was a good QB at that time... ![]() Quote:
I know this isnt part of the discussion and you never said anything that he should be but as much as was huge for you guys, you still had the #4 defense in the NFL. Minnesota goes nowhere without Peterson because Ponder stinks. Ill give credit where credit is due and Peyton has been nails after a shaky start. Last edited by Boltjolt; 01-02-2013 at 08:38 PM.. |

DT was 4th is yardage. 15.3 YPC 8th in receptions while being 13th in targets Tied for 5th in TDs 2nd in receptions of 20 yards+ 5th in YAC One of the most historical catches and runs in Denver Broncos and NFL history against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Is Crabtree a star? He has much better numbers than Thomas in his career by far and had his best season this year though not quite as good as Thomas. Id call Crabtree one of the good WR's in the league but a star? He's no Steve Smith, or even Julio Jones imo who has been great right out of the gate. Would you call Dez Bryant a star? He has better numbers in his career than Thomas in their 3 years and was on par with him this year. I think Bryant is emerging and very close and ahead of Thomas. Just some examples. Not saying Thomas isnt very good, but i just dont throw him in there with the other star WR's. Its not a knock, Vince Jackson wasnt a star his first three years and Thomas reminds me a lot of VJ but i think VJ has a little bit better hands. But you guys can call him a star if you want. Hell you called Cutler a star when he was a Bronco. Cutler is no star. Last edited by Boltjolt; 01-02-2013 at 09:25 PM.. |

Crabtree's numbers aren't close to Thomas, and everyone you named has worse numbers than Thomas...so you really don't have a point if you bring up people with WORSE numbers this season. Did you say Thomas reminds you of VJ? VJ hasn't put a season together that's even CLOSE to DT.... and let's not take away the fact that DT is astronomically more talented when it comes to physical capabilities. They play nothing alike other than the fact that they both can play the deep ball well. Well, that's really the only thing VJ can do. As far as Dez Bryant goes... he put together a legit season this year and if you want to call him a star go ahead...he's proven himself. You can see talent and "star" abilities by watching film and watching the game. Only armchair GMs think otherwise. |

Thomas came back from a typically career ending achilles injury for Christ sake. His career numbers likely took a hit while he was rehabbing....

Crabtree has 112 more catches, 1075 yards, and 5 more TDs then Thomas. You would think that would be something to be expected from a WR that has over a FULL season on a guy. Also yes Dez Bryant is a star, he also had a much better QB throwing him the ball then Thomas before this season. |

Since Dec. 1, Thomas is averaging 22.5 yards per catch. His 108.7 yards per game are second in the NFL behind only Lions star Calvin Johnson. Thomas' teammates say they couldn't be happier for him after all he has endured.

Im not denying he had some good games but it doesnt make sense that he was 2nd in the league after those games...oh wait, yes, i guess if the other 3/4 of the league dont play, that elevates him up the board. That Jeff Darlington isnt very smart. |
