Who’s the best receiver in the game today? Is there one guy you think?
JR: Well, you got to go with Marvin Harrison. Maybe Steve Smith, too. Marvin, what he’s doing, Randy Moss, the expectations of him — he could be one of the best ever to play the game with his talent, but I am not sure if he’s worked at it hard enough. And Terrell Owens, I think he has to just get back to playing football. And Chad Johnson, Smith we said, so many other guys. But Marvin plays the game, he plays it hard. He’s not a big guy, but he goes out there and works his butt off.
Do today’s wideouts put enough work in to be successful at the NFL level? Or do they rely too much on big talent?
JR: I think Marvin Harrison does. I think some of those other guys do. I think with Terrell Owens, he’s going to work his butt off. But it’s just if Terrell is not going to get distracted. Like last year, he led the league in drops. You know, you can’t do that and consider yourself as being the best receiver to play the game. So he’s going to have to come back and redeem himself this year. But right now, (receivers are perceived as) prima donnas — somehow we have that title. And it’s going to be up to these guys to go out there and prove to everyone that we are not prima donnas and that we go out there and play the game the right way.
