No I didn't I was talking to the people who said something about him flying by like he was super fast. 4.5 is not blazing speed. That was all I was saying.



I agree, he doesn't have blazing speed, but the second he gets behind you, its over. I've seen way too many broken coverages, a DB lets him slip by them, and he burns them for 40+ yards. Speed or not, he's fast enough to take it to the house if it happens. The difference between 4.40 and 4.50 is not that big of a difference.

Ok for comparison name me one WR from Bradys first Super Bowl win without looking it up. They were a bunch of nobodys but Brady won a Super Bowl with them.



Brady's #1 receiver in the 2001 season was Troy Brown. The same Troy Brown that was on the team since '93 and iirc had close to 1000 yards with Bledsoe the year prior. Technically you could say Terry Glenn was #1, but he was deactivated for being a dumbass. Btw that same Glenn was a 1000 yard receiver and had 92 receptions in his ROOKIE season, so he wasn't a scrub either.

Lets not act as if the Brady of 2001 was the reason why they won in the playoffs, that team had a solid run game and defense that clamped down.

quote:

And I see you removed your statement about Randy Moss because he had 60 rec for over 1000 yards his first year with Oakland with Collins throwing him the ball, before he gave up on the field and started playing half arse the next year



The statement of Moss is still there, I never changed it nor took it out. That same Randy Moss wasn't putting up top 5 numbers, nor playing like a top 5 WR with Collins throwing him the ball. Oakland was a fricking hell hole, still is one. Randy Moss wasn't even top 10 in yards. Oakland wasn't even a bottom 5 passing offense, or bottom 5 in TD:INT differential in 2004 and 2005. Randy Moss gave up on his team, but he's probably the most athletic WR to play the game. Only maybe Calvin Johnson would compare right now to what Randy Moss was.

Even though Bledsoe was never to the level of Brady he wasnt a scrub either. He threw for 3000 yards every year but his rookie year and over 4000 two of those years.

That's an understatement

I agree 100%, and even though I hate him you have to put T.O. in this comparison also.
