Antonio Brown

The guy has the hands of a bricklayer but the legs of a cheetah. As long as he's only returning kicks, I'm fine with it.
Which is known as "the Ade Jimoh argument". Unfortunately, we have to insert Ade at DB occasionally, and the other team ends up burning him for a gain.

If Brown has kept his position, he has also taken someone else's, because if he was going to be the 5th receiever, we need 6.

As Dick Vermeil once said: "I can teach a guy to catch a ball, I can't teach speed."

While Browns drops were bad and had me sobbing myself to sleep last night, let's not cut him yet. At least he was getting open.

Definitely. I agree with everyon who said that one bad night does not warrant a cut. I'm amused as how many people are calling for his head after these drops. I GUARANTEE he'll break at least 2-3 TDs this year in kickoff returns. I'm disappointed in last night because he had one SURE touchdown hit him in the facemask. It was an experiment in the beginning so it's not like we KNEW he was going to be a WR. He's getting separation, getting open, and thus far I don't think (even prior to tonight) that we would see him in any more packages than a 3/4 WR set.

You don't use your starting WR's to return kick-offs & punts. That's just asking for trouble. Brown has done a very good job return punts & kick-offs. I especially was impressed with his ability to make people miss & grab that extra 3+ yards.

Remember, Ramsey was not behind center, so lets not blame Brown 100%. Campbell played pretty sloppy against the 2nd stringers & Brunell probably was not going at 100%. So lets just scratch this game off as just a scrimmage.

Brown is still my guy to make the roster.

I'm giving him my season pass

Well I guess we saw why Brown hasn't caught on anywhere else as a WR, his hands need serious work.

That being said, his job isn't in jeopardy. He's our return guy, he's not going anywhere.

yeah but will he muff punts?

I feel pretty confident that Brown will make the final roster. I don't think Gibbs is the type to make a switch based on one game - which means that Farris isn't going to be on the roster and Brown will be on the roster.

I disagree with whoever said, "lets not blame Brown 100%." How can you blame Brunell?? Did he hit Brown in the hands too hard? That one deep pass was a perfectly thrown ball.

It almost seems like Brown has concentration issues but I have a strange feeling that he is the type of player who can learn how to be more consistent catching the ball.

It's hilarious to see how Brown's stock has dropped so dramatically with some people after one game.

yeah but will he muff punts?

Has he in the past?

Just that one at Dallas (or was that a kickoff?).
