Being a a #1 WR has nothing to do with size and everything to do with being able to beat every teams best corner consistently, which Tyreek did for the most part in just his second year.

I think Brown is a once in a lifetime kinda player, quite honestly. My traditional size comments are more in general about the position, there will be exceptions. It's kinda like bigger QBs. Brees is an exception.
Hill could certainly be on a trajectory to match or surpass what Brown has done on a consistent basis, there's no doubt. [Reply]

Hill in year two has already done more than guys like Brown and Steve Smith did at that point. To point at his size as the reason why he can’t be a #1 WR is flat out ignorant. [Reply]

You kinda missed what I was saying, but that's ok. In Brown's first two years, he was playing behind guys like Hines Ward, Sanders, Wallace... he wasn't asked to be the #1 guy, but he put up solid numbers in year 2 and has never really looked back as of year 4. Brown was simply one of many in the WR arsenal, not to mention Heath Miller at TE. Not really an apples to apples comparison to simply block out Brown vs Hill after 2 seasons considering the depth on those two teams. [Reply]
Hey guys, today is the 31st anniversary of THE DRIVE!
You know the playoff game that the Great John Elway won in Cleveland to advance to his 1st SB.
I can't think of any kFc named games other than The Choke and The Choke II, I guess you could consider 1997 The Choke III though it came 1st. Other great kFc playoff chokes out there too.
The Catch, The Drive, Ghost to the Post, etc Iconic. Your high point is "Matriculate the ball down field boys" while your coach tries to keep his hair from blowing off his bald head. I forgot to add The Fumble which followed the next year. Good stuff! [Reply]

Enjoy trying to fix that terrible D with 3 picks in the draft.
Hey come on we are getting Berry back that’s like getting a brand new shiny on defense. Plus the 2nd or 3rd round pick we get from some dumb team willing to trade for ultimate game manager. [Reply]
