SI Brooks: Ranking the Top 25 Receivers

[Ren]

I think that has more to do with Glenn being matched up on their #2 or #3 CB moreso than it does the coordinators thinking Glenn is more dangerous than Owens.

I agree but remeber when we had keyshawn, Glenn wasn't allways on the #2 or 3 and his numbers where about the same. Glenn is the kind of reciver that on most teams would be dobble coverd quite a lot but on a team that has TO you can't really do that and not pay. Wich is why i think teams actually do worry quite a lot about Glenn, he's good enough to beat you when in single covrage but you have to focus TO.

#2.Torry Holt will be remembered as the 4th best wr in nfl history when he retires.

Not by me

Not by me

Agreed; great reciever but not THAT high... go watch nfl films or something and you'll see why.

I mean Holt didn't even have that great of a season this year overall; he absolutely LIT the league up the first half of the season then really played just okay the rest. If he wants to be considered and all-time great he is going to need to keep it up for three or four more years like this.

That is the worst list I've seen... maybe ever. How is Tory Holt 12??? I'd put him in the top three.

How can JFE have TG rated above TO and this report have TO in the top five NFL?

Guess all of us Zoners who said TO was better then TG get a pat on the backside...

The back is all you will get from Buddy!

Glenn:

Runs excellent routes, has excellent hands, good speed, can catch balls in traffic, big play threat, reliable.

Owens:

Runs average routes, average hands, pretty good speed, difficult to take down once he has the wall, can make the big play after a catch, but less likely to beat his man downfield before the catch.

If all this is true ..... why has Owens had the better career?

 

[gazmc_06]

wait....Glenn good speed but Owens only pretty good speed, you saw what T.O. did to Deangelo Hall last year right? twice. T.O. is better across the middle, better for deep balls and better when he catches the ball...Glenn is a good receiver but T.O. is hall of fame bound for a reason.

 

[gazmc_06]

Nice Sig!! And I agree, PBP is the best P4P hands down! I want to see him fight Shane Mosley or Ricky Hatton though. Either one of those should be a good fight!

Back to the topic...carry on...

Floyd is gonna beat down on Hatton some time this year, Hatton's camp offered Floyd $10 million to fight Hatton over there in Wembley stadium but I don't think Floyd is stupid enough to do that.....plus why does Hatton not want to fight him in Vegas like he has his last few opponents? fear.

back on point....T.O. is the best, end of story
