Re: Jimmy Graham, please

When we get in the redzone a lot of times I see Jimmy on the sidelines and I see Josh Hill in the game and i'm like WTF! Jimmy's the man but when he is hurt he is a different person

Re: Jimmy Graham, please

It Drew can hit the cross-bars there is no reason Jimmy can't catch it. I'm surprised we do not have a play exactly like that.

Re: Jimmy Graham, please

None of our receivers have been doing very well this year. Drew is not as accurate this year either. When he is not accurate you see how our receivers are good but not great. An accurate Brees makes them look twice as good as they actually are.
I think Drew took a few hits early on in the season that may have stuck with him and lingered through the year. I wouldnt be surprised if he has been playing a little dinged up and we dont hear about it until after the season. Graham gets a pass because of his injury. That injury does not just heal on its own if you are playing on it every week.

Re: Jimmy Graham, please

i know this sounds nuts and will be scarfed upon

This year despite the passing production of the offense i have to grade the effort level of the WR and TE as C-.

alligator arms have been way to common in way to many games
the extra effort also seems to be on down slide when battling for the ball
route running seems to be a bit lazier than in the past..

they seems to have lost attitude. getting up and making a first down call is not attitude it is one of the stupidest things i think that has devoloped in pro ball. do it when you ice a game or driving to win. in the second qtr with a lead you look like a punk idiot in my book. oppps back on topic sorry

i have been disappointed in the over all effort of the veteran WR. Injuries or not the extra effort i am use to seeing is just not there. they do not seem hungry or they are protecting themselves for the big pay day to come. what ever it is it is poor play.

we blame the line but i also need to point this out as a factor that defends that OL a bit. just a bit. a small tiny bit

are we just getting lazy and expect things to come easy?

i say start looking for younger hungrier players in the off season or in the draft and free agency. maybe job security will relight a fire in them.

Re: Jimmy Graham, please

Jimmy needs to think about it this way:
Another loss or two and we'll be out of the running.
Jimmy has not had a STELLAR year, with all the drops.

Jimmy will not get paid.

Jimmy needs to consider these things…

Hope that they pay Jimmy his worth. As really Jimmy needs to get his worth. He has been money in the bank!

I wouldn't throw stones if I were the pats, that TE of theirs is about as soft as baby sh*t
