First of all let me start by saying we had 4 rushing TD's vs 14 by or opponents. That will come in handy soon. Also, Devante Parker had 1 TD receiving. Landry had 9 TD's in 2017, averaging 5.2 yards a TD. To me, this is a small sample size of three major issues in 2017, not his fault:
1. QB play, need I say more
2. The inability to run the ball in the redzone and to move the chains overall
3. Lack of production from other WR's.

Landry's catch per TD's was 5.2 yards. Think about that a sec. For one minute, what realistic factor could be contributing to this? Pass rush, qb play, not being able to run the ball, no production from the other side. To me, Landry was a microcosm of the Phins offense. Do you think this is what Gase is about? How effective can Landry be with beter qb play, protection, a complimentary WR and a decent, emerging run game?

do you ever post anything of interest?

You say you are going deep inside the numbers then offer a "small sample size". You never get to a conclusion and are merely using this as a forum to attack Gase and Tannehill, again with little to back it up. So I think if you are going to ask that question, it may be good to take a minute to look in a mirror.

You forgot one thing. He doesn't score long TD's because he's a slow WR. He gets no chunk yards for the most part. You're right that a lot of things are not his fault but his lack of speed is the reason he doesn't score 40 yard TD's which is ok as long as you're not the 3rd highest paid WR in the NFL but wait, the FO is giving him 16 mill...btw, that's not his fault either. He can't help that t-dumb is dumb

Ozzy rules!!

You use all this to defend Landry, but you turn around and Bash Stills. The same excuses can also be used to defend Stills who you claim is unreliable in another post.
 
so are you all saying that it's ok for Mathews, Vernon, Miller and Landry to walk? So you're saying the way to build this team is through free agency (and re-signing these players) and having them turnover every 4 years after drafting them, when we usually don't draft worth a damn? LOL

Yes, because every receiver is meant to get "chunk yards"

Larry Fitz since 2012 has averaged a whopping 11 yards per reception.

Landry's biggest strength is running with the ball already in his hand. And it's not like Miami's 2017 offense was passing the ball down the field at all. So yeah, fault Landry for "not getting chunk yards" but make no mention that Miami's QBs in 2017 had 6-something yards per attempt.
 
oh so what is Stills and Parker for?
Stills is the deep guy and Parker is the middle guy and btw, neither one is making 16mill a year so what's your point?
16mill which means we'll have no money to get any good free agents but hey, we'll have Landry so we should be able to win 8 games once again

I've never complained about that. You think I'm happy we kept Branch and Kiko with those contracts they got? Keeping them is one thing but breaking the bank like that is insane. If you're happy we kept those guys last year then fine but was it worth it? What good did that do? 6 wins

Landry is a special talent, his deal is not going to be $16m a season...its a protection so we don't lose him. something will be negotiated in the $13m range a year and i am totally fine with that. we do agree on Branch and Alonso. Branch should have never been given more than $6m a season as an average rotational DE and Kiko should have played under a one year deal we were allotted with the restricted free agent designation. i still think the Kiko deal was based on the them screwing up so badly with OV the previous year.
