Joe Horn, Issac Bruce, Hines Ward, and Tory Holt are not, in your mind, true #1 recievers?
Seriously?
What did he do the rest of that game? Oh, but he finished with 899 yards receiving on the year!CRAZYDOLFAN305 said:One play out of how many? I guess you miss the opening play of the Ravens game, when Chris bombed them for 70 plus yards..
Bad Lieutenant said:Joe Horn? No way.
Isaac Bruce? Not anymore.
Hines Ward? Meh. He's a good #1 receiver, but he is not great, overrated at best.
Tory Holt? I'd have to agree with you there, although I still would not put him in the same class as TO, Moss or Harrison.
MDFINFAN said:With all that's said, did you guys forget that our QB's didn't get the time to get the ball deep...a little something we're working on with the OL, how to pick up blitzes, and opening running holes so our backs can get through, so maybe other teams respect our run, so some pressure maybe taken off our QB..If we get those worked out, maybe chambers get a chance to get some down field balls..but chris has to help that out too, with his abilities, he missed a lot of jump balls when he had the chance...he''s got to learn to win those types of battles.
I've been asking for a definition of a #1 reciever vs. a #2. I've heard of teams having two #1's - 1A and 1B. So what did we have last year two #2's?Bad Lieutenant said:I love Chambers. His rookie year he made some of the best TDs I have ever seen from a Miami receiver. That game up in Buffalo was sick that year. But truth be told, he is only a #2 receiver at best. There are only a few true #1 receivers in the NFL: Moss, T.O. and Marvin Harrison. Chambers is a GREAT #2 guy, but only a good #1 guy. He is not an elite receiver in my opinion. He has a tendency to run lazy routes, and give up on plays. I love the guy, but let's come back to Earth a little here.

I was looking at a rookie card w/ all the combine stats
he ran a 4.3 40 yrd. dash
he has a 46.5 vertical jump
Many people forgot he weighs near 215 but is only 5'10-5'11 so he has to be the most built WR too.
Ever since he came into the league Fiedler started to suck and our Passing Game was a joke.
Not to mention he caught 11 Tds in 2003 when our QBs combined for 15.
You put that in contrast w/ adecent amount of tds (25) and chambers would have had around 19 Tds which is unbelievable.
I love Chambers but I think he shouldnt of signed a long term deal w/ Miami.
He will be a majorwatse of talent but not his fault.
