Ceedee Lamb had some huge drops in crucial moments tonight vs Philly.
My friend and I collectively agree, that historically Lamb is not the guy you want to go to in big moments. He does not deliver anywhere near consistently as other big name WR’s in the league.
Remember “jump balls 4, jump balls, I got you?” Then proceeds to fumble when we couldn’t afford a turnover.
In what could have been the first interception of the year, a perfectly placed ball from Dak went through the hands of Mr #1 just to bounce off his facemask and pop into the air.
Lamb then proceeds to drop another beautifully placed ball in one of the biggest turning points of the game with just over 2 minutes remaining.
Although arguable it was a difficult catch, to be paid the money he gets paid, that 4th down play probably should have been caught.
But what I see from Pickens is aggression over flashy. He came up in a big moment tonight. Even when he couldn’t manage that one handed grab off the PI, he still fought until the very end.
My point being, is Ceedee more often than not these days is causing errors that are not acceptable for a player in his position, on a consistent basis.
Throughout the career of George Pickens, he seems to be more consistent and more reliable, and arguably more comfortable in bigger moments than the time Lamb has spent with us. What do you guys think?
