Jakeem Grant - good we moved on - fumbled AGAIN - cost Bears the game

[royalshank]

What's stupid is someone arguing that 5tds, none of which clinched or occurred in an important game, regardless of how they were scored, meant diddly squat pooh over multiple years of work and payment.

I can't believe someone who is not blood related wants to die on the Jakeem Grant hill.

None of those TDs were important? Ok, he had one in 2016 that helped us win a game and get into the playoffs. Does that count?

I can’t believe someone would actively hate on a player while he’s busy scoring 50 and 97 yard TDs in one half.

I don’t get it. 2 muffs a year while handling punts and kickoffs. The Chiefs use Pringle and Hardman. They have 2 each. And they specialize in one or the other. But it’s just like guys on here. They act like everyone who plays here sucks. But they would jerk off Andy Reid to get Hardman here. The grass is greener I guess.

Part of it his decision making in terms of not taking fair catches or returning kickoffs that were five yards deep. The fumbles were often highly preventable ones that he simply chose to catch in no space.

Hell, think back to the Michael Thomas cheap shot on Grant. If Thomas doesn’t lose his mind there he would have flat out leveled Grant legally. The return tonight against the Packers worked out but is another instance of a bone headed decision — to catch a ball at the 5 that had outkicked the coverage and almost assuredly went into the end zone.

No he didn’t. His drop rate was actually one of the lowest on the team. It was under 5. I think Williams is like 8-10?

He could run 5 more kicks back for TDs tonight and it wouldn’t matter to some folks. Oh well.

You’re wrong. Just like when you guys talked s$hi7 about X and his meaningless turnovers, we should trade him for a case of soda. It’s so important. Field position wins games sometimes. An unexpected TD wins games sometimes. No one is saying he should be a starting WR. But he has more value than anyone playing WR not named Waddle on this team right now.

And a 97 yard PR TD.

When he put the ball on the ground when he had been with the bears, there wasn’t a thread formed. Where were the Grant fans then?

Unexpected fumbles and drops lose games as well.

There was a thread created. A lot of posts w twitter screen shots from pissed off Bears fans.

The haters brought it up. I remember.

Good points. Somehow he managed to not get hurt very often while guys 2x his size nursed bruised vaginas all the time.

This is where the fan base is out of touch. Everyone fumbles and drops balls. Usually more than Grant does. But they don’t score TDs like Grant. Or squeeze out yards in field position. Or break off an end around for a first down. He was solid. And he didn’t deserve the hate.

 

[royalshank]

I guess I just don’t understand how people can look at the guy make the explosive plays he does try to say he stinks.

FYI, you're not getting a Medal of Honor for dying on Grant Hill LOL

Jakeem is so awesome he's been in on 1 offensive trick play

Especially for what he gave us considering he was a late round pick as well.

Not sure, but until tonight I can tell you Bears fans don't want him either
