I've looked at the numbers, and I've done the math. I want to know what this offense will be losing with the departure of OG...
His numbers, very mediocre IMO.
98' - 48 catches 713 yards - 7TD's
99' - 48 - 803 - 6
00' - 56 - 786 - 6
01' - 55 - 674 - 3
As many of you can see looking at these numbers, OG was not what most teams would consider a #2 WR. His numbers reflect a player who gets very little after the catch. He was more of a possession WR than anything else IMO.....
C. Carter's numbers last season speak volumes of the difference in the type of WR the two are....
C. Carter may not be the same WR he use to be, but he's still better than most. He's certainly a better WR than O. Gadsden will ever be....even at age 36.
Losing OG will cause friction amongst some team-mates becuase he was a very well liked individual, but this is football. It shouldn't be taken personally.....
I wish OG the very best in the future, but we needed a more qualified WR opposite C. Chambers IMO....
C. Carter is a winner and a leader. He'll point the finger when it needs to be pointed. Signing him will also take tons of pressure off of C. Chambers and the rest of the offense with him out there...
He's considered a threat on the field. I'm not sure if O. Gadsden was ever really looked at as a serious threat to opposing defenses. His lack of speed didn't qualify him to be labled in that catagory.....
C. Carter may not be that fast, but his knowledge, and fire for the game is undeniable. He'll be every bit the WR he was for the Vikes...
C. Carter wants a ring very badly, and he's also got something to prove to his former employer / and R. Moss himself....
More On O. Gadsden : I don't think OG was having a very good year thus far either. He had dropped more balls this year than I had ever seen.....
Also, with the addition of TE's R. McMicheal / D. Clark, I think that big target WR issue had been covered....
I'll miss him some....but not all that much.
Once C. Carter starts producing, we'll all forget about Gadsden. C. Carter is much more capable of hurting defense than OG was IMO....
PHINZ RULE!!!!:fire:
