Colston's still a fine player, but he's not the man he was obviously. I think the saints need to consider drafting a larger possession wide receiver in the next few years. Besides Graham, we don't have a guy who can get a jump ball in the end zone. That was one of Colston's best plays and I think we're missing that this year.

No. Ball was falling into his hands and he pulled them back. He was obviously hearing footsteps. Should have caught it. Was a great pass! He's a different player this year for some reason.

yeah no shite, those announcers were stupid all game and probably convinced half the fanbase the Colston should have had that. Ball was clearly tipped out of his way. He clearly didn't think the defender was going to get there.

That's the one. And I see what you're saying. However, I think a better WR goes and gets that ball. I'm not sure Colston's ever been that kind of receiver. What he is is reliable and dependent. He's not going to snatch balls away from anybody. That's Jimmy's job.

ETA: This is me complaining about Colston. Just what I think I observe with my Sunday afternoon couch sitting eyes.
