Antonio Brown...should we?

Well on the one hand we’re trotting out Austin Carr...

Still a no from me.

The cause of his antics could be unfortunately brain damage from playing football. Somebody else was doing crazy stuff not so long ago. That person had one of the worse cases ever seen.

He needs a brain scan. He wasn't acting like this before. It's a recent thing to my knowledge.

Not Coach Payton's M.O. to bring in a AB type of player.
Not to mention if you can't get along with the Raiders that's
usually the last stop for NFL Villains.

No, because Michael Thomas is our clear #1 and I don't think AB would accept being second to anyone.

Just don't want him in our division. He is, after all, THAT good.

Thing is, Brown keeps incriminating himself with his output on social media. He's leaving an electronic trail of his own ridiculousness. Makes it awful easy for me to pick a side.

Not while we have another diva WR on the team. Thomas is going to wind up almost as bad. Watch.

Beastmode · 09-07-2019, 03:27 PM

All I know is the man is amazing on the field. A.J. Bouye, one of the best CB's said he is the best WR he ever had to cover. Many other CB's have said the same.

AB basically does not show his hands until the last split second. Very difficult to do. Moss was also good at keeping the "hands in the pocket" until it's time to snatch it. He also knows how to create space without getting penalized, another unique skill.

Wish him the best. He has the ability to turn a weaker team into a contender by himself.

I think Newton has the same problem. His off the field antics have gotten progressively worse the last few years. He’s not an ******* so much as he is just weird and bazaar.

Could be. There is a video of him breaking stupid Guinness Records that never existed like longest completed pass to a blindfolded receiver and longest pass caught between the legs. Very silly and not something a Pro QB should be goofing around with but meh....could be worse.
