so far, Randy Moss' stats are better than OBJ's, but it's hard to really argue about two receivers who are so different and played in different eras of offensive strategies

I think OBJ biggest issue is he came into the league as a rookie and was one of the best WR in the league. The catch he made against Dallas broke the Internet and he became a superstar over night. He was on the cover of Madden after his rookie and got a lot of attention. I don't remember OBJ crying for calls his rookie year and at LSU. First time I remember OBJ acting weird was when the Giants came back and won a last year OBJ was crying in a post game interview. I think OBJ let the attention get to his head and he believes OBJ is the best thing in the world.

...and Julio has Matt Ryan.

It's not like any of them have Tyrod Taylor slinging it to them. All have reputable QB's, and Brown is clearly superior to the other two.

yep. He wasn't a diva until "the catch" and really it took a few months for him to become a diva. At first he was very humble about the attention...then he came out of his shell and now he is a diva.

You may be right, and I don't know the answer.

But in situations like this, I always wonder...did he become like that then, or was he always like that but we didn't know because we didn't care about him before?

Ok why are we acting like Eli and Matt Ryan aren't good?

Ryan is in the MVP running, and Eli is a very good QB when it comes to giving the WRs chances to do good, he just is very interception prone in some decisions... he still a very accurate QB most of the time and knows how to win

I always saw a very humble player while at LSU. Personally I believe he was shy and reserved. Now he has confidence and is being himself?

I mean maybe you can say this caused it, but everyone loved him for a while after the catch, and he got good publicity

Simply, he wasn't labeled as a little gay bitch until he started doing bitchy gay shite

I find it hard judging someone like Odell. Blowing up that big has to frick with your psyche. I have no idea how I would react. It's easy to say "I'd stay humble and down to earth" but who knows. NYC, millionaire, pussy being thrown at you, face of an NFL franchise, people constantly telling you you're the best ever. Idk.

I personally don't have a problem with his actions. Some people are more flamboyant than others...how many commercials do you see Julio in compared to OBJ

You don't think it might be because Julio makes 9.5 million this year compared to ODB's 1.3 million?

That was the exact point I was trying to make. Antonio Brown isn't the best WR in the league just cause Ben is his QB. That's better than having a scrub QB, but there are a handful of QB's in the league equal to or better than Big Ben.
