Again, as noted above...not the question.

No. He doesn't. And if you want to make it about playing time, Harvin misses games because of migranes with no decipherable origin and, as of yet, no remedy.

When Favre goes down or retires (this year or next), I'm sure Harvin will look GREAT!!

I like how harvin, as a rookie, has a wonderful season and people want to crown him better than reggie.

Do people not remember that when Reggie came out as a rookie, they crowned him too?

Frankly, in my mind, Percy Harvin has the question mark. We've seen enough of reggie to know what's going on with him. Explosive player, a little injury prone, and homerun hitter, a lot like...well, harvin.

Harvin is a rookie Pro Bowler... he can run as well as catch the ball and is not afraid of contact (regardless of regular season or the playoffs)
I am not a Reggie-hater, but I would definitely take Percy.

Reggie. Harvin's a good, solid player at WR. Reggie is good as a RB, WR and KR.

You couldn't replace Reggie with Harvin next year and get the same type of production out of our offense. Both explosive players, but two different types of players.

Let me know when Harvin jumps over two players from the 5 yard line and gets the TD.

Give me Reggie. They are very similar, but I'll take Reggie because I am already invested emotionally in him.

If Reggie played every game like he did yesterday then I'd say Reggie

But I think right now it's not foolish to say that Harvin is better. Harvin is having a great year as a rookie at a position where rookies normally struggle.

I don't understand the logic behind the arguement that Percy has had a better rookie season. Reggie's rookie year stats were pretty good. He had 88 receptions. That is quite a few more than Harvin. They both have excelled. They both helped their team to the NFC Championship game.

If Reggie played consistantly like he did yesterday, I would definitely take him. Harvin has been more consistant though.

no he hasn't he's had one year. compare both of their rookie seasons and you'd take Bush all day.

Besides the fact that that statement is just completely stupid, you're not really comparing apples to apples.

Bush came into the league at a position that is generally easier for rookies to adapt to than the one that Harvin is excelling in.

Reggie, use him like we did yesterday in every game and no one will be questioning him ever again.

Consistently like his performance today? One catch for one yard? 3 rushes for 23 yards? Wow! Awesome.

Man you're an idiot. The whole point of bringing up consistency is not to isolate a sample size of one game.

He has been pretty consistent this year. I don't think that bringing up one game where he had negligible stats in a 31 point victory really means anything.
