Wow, tough crowd...In my book there is something kinda wrong with you if you didn't at least like Meachem as a Saint, or have a warm spot in your heart for him...the strip!!! The TD bombs over the middle!!! Come on, football is ENTERTAINMENT, people. Screw the stats, I am still gonna be watching that Redskins clip on Youtube once or twice a year, when I am old and senile and in the nursing home!

No one said Meachem was going to make people forget Jerry Rice, but, IMO, Meachem doesn't get the credit he deserves from some Saints fans. |

1st off, I wasn't bashing Meachem. He was a Saint!!! He was a decent ball player.....but that's it. He NEVER lived up to his 1st round expectations.....no matter how you want to paint the picture. As someone mentioned before, Devery has been every bit as good. He did make some great plays. He also had some downright pitiful drops. For every....."enough said" video of Meachem making a play, there was one where he wasn't making a play. Bottom line is.....like I said.....I hope that both of the new guys are better than he was.

I remember a Robert Meachem, drafted in the first round out of Tennessee - D'oh - :homer: that was not even in shape! Hopefully Morgan is better than that... And there is a reason why Vitt is only where he is and no more... |

That being said... Meachem's hands were not always soft, and there is a reason he was known by some as Meat-Chump. |
