Alright TalkSox: Antonio Brown, Julio Jones or Odell Beckham Jr (or other)


Recommended Posts

Posted

I know this is a baseball forum, but I am a football fan first and with myself being an LSU alumni, I would like to start some debate about in my opinion, the best WR in THE NFL, OBJ.

 

Who of these three you think is best? How would you rank them in order, why would you do it that way.. or better yet, think someone else is better, voice your opinion...

 

I without a doubt think OBJ is the most complete WR in the NFL and I believe that Julio, AND Dez Bryant are both better than AB. AB plays on a pass happy team with an elite QB, line, and cordinator, which benefits him tremendously.

I am not suggesting that Jullian Endelman is the best WR in the NFL but I would strongly suggest that he is by far more important to his team's offense than any of those guys.

 

Star power is nice.

 

Production that moves the chains and wins championships mean much more.

I don't see literally anything that OBJ does better than Antonio Brown. AB has consistently beaten the best corners in the league, runs any route and his chemistry with Big Ben is probably the best in the league. If Big Ben doesn't get hurt last year and forced Michael Vick to start, Brown likely shatters reception and yardage record.

Does being a f***ing punk count?

If that counts, OBJ is better than AB at that. I will give him that lol. The way he acted against Norman was a joke.

Not really, a great WR is a great WR regardless of the team they play for. AB, Julio, OBJ, Hopkins, etc, could easily do what Edelman does, and do it better.

Jones and Brown are still neck and neck to me. They've both been playing hot potato with receiving yards leader the past few years.

I am a huge AB fan. Hands down the best player in the entire league not named Tom Brady, and in my mind, competing with Jerry Rice for best WR ever. I'm also in love with JuJu but that's a different matter.

Maybe someday you'll be fans of guys on the teams you root for!

Two years from now, Robby Anderson will be a superstar in this league. I love that guy too. There. Is that better?

I don't even know who that guy is.

 

In any case, I like the Saints as my "favorite" NFC team because I think they got f***ed by Goodell and they have a nice, good coach and one of the best QBs the league has ever seen.

 

BUT... I was sort of rooting for the Jets Sunday. Petty and that offense could not get anything going but the rest of the team played their asses off.

 

The Jets this year have not been as bad as I had hoped.

Agreed. Even I had them pegged somewhere around 2-14. All they need is experience. They've been in every game but two. Could easily be an 8-9 win team if they had held onto a couple 4th quarter leads.

JuJu is the man, I don't think I've ever instantly loved a player as a rookie as much as I've loved him due to his personality, he's an awesome dude and player.

 

Robby Anderson is good, but I don't think he'll ever be elite, I think he is in the "very good category". Id put him on the tier with guys like Davante Adams, Marvin Jones, etc.

While we're talking about JuJu, I will say that the hit on Burfict a few weeks ago was absolutely unnecessary and over the top. I don't care what a guy's past is. The Steelers were providing him all night and he didn't bite, and responded by playing a hell of a (clean) game. No need to blind side him like that. That play is the biggest thing I have against JuJu this season. Shame on him.

Burfict celebrated over Le'Veon when he had a torn ACL, cheap shot Antonio Brown and knocked him out of the playoffs, slammed Roethlisbergers shoulder into the ground after a sack and walked over him, kicked Roosevelt Nix, and that's just steelers players lol.. Burfict fully deserved that and had it coming a LONG TIME. The block wasn't even that bad, Michael Floyd did the same thing to Tony Lippet last year, only reason JuJu got suspended was the taunt, and if it was anyone else, he wouldn't have done it.

 

Burfict is a massive douche, who cares.

I loved watching JuJu at USC. Sad that going to the Steelers turned him into a dingleberry. I'm glad I don't have to watch much AFC North nonsense. I would have stopped watching football a long time ago.

I get the anger about Burfict, but the Steelers have played along with that s***** brand of football for decades. Smash mouth football and JACKED UP HITS are over. It's time for 7 on 7 or something that won't cause so many former players to get CTE and kill themselves or others.

I get that, and if the Steelers were to retaliate, it would be in one of those games, not when it was. Forget about the past. Because they decided to attack Burfict in this particular game, a game where Burfict hadn't done anything wrong and had been playing with a lot of passion, the Steelers are the ones that look like massive douches, not Burfict.

"Playing with a lot of passion". Like Kicking the Steelers fullback? Leg whipping David Decastro? He was doing s*** that game too. He fully deserved that hit, and he still looks like a massive douche. There is a reason a lot of players around the league were happy JuJu did it, including numerous former players. There isn't a "right time" to retaliate, when he deserves it damn near every game.
