Re: Marques Colston: Steady dominance
I still think its impressive considering what offense we run, the players that outperformed him are all No. 1 receivers and get a lot more looks, the ball is spread massively in our offense and for colston to still put those numbers up is very impressive

If you double or triple Colston, Brees will eat your lunch finding the wide open guys all over the field. |

Re: Marques Colston: Steady dominance
Thats true, if my memory serves me correctly I think teams started double covering Colston at the start of the 2011 season and Jimmy Graham had 3 straight weeks with over 100 yards receiving

Re: Marques Colston: Steady dominance
One problem. The big fumble
How many times does he fumble on a big drive or going into the end zone at least 2 times a year. Plus they are normally VERY costly |
