    How can Carr and Brown make the top 10 without playing together yet? Same with Mayfield and OBJ. Make no sense.

    Lmao

      "Strawman"???
      I don't think so.

      Ok
      . Call me crazy but I'm a little nervous about JuJu being our number 1 without really any real threat as a 2.
      I am arguing that the above point is not valid.

      When has a player matched or surpassed the performance of a HOF talent and NOT been able to excel without being helped by the HOF player?

      You gotta be pretty special to have a season with more yards than a HOFer in his prime.

      In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

        I think that Ass Clown Brown became such a security blanket for some that they can't fathom our passing game being good without him. They don't remember that Ben was winning Super Bowls without either Brown or Bell. I get it; but no worries Shawn; Ben will have the passing game working just fine.

        Watch what Brown does with a lesser QB in Oakland. Watch him the first game of the season against the Broncos. You'll see that Browns success here was more about Ben they people want to give credit for.

          Single games are terrible for evaluating anything.

          If Ben has a bad game against NE in game 1 does that mean that he needs Brown to succeed? No.

          If JuJu doesn't have a good game against NE, does that mean that he can't succeed at a WR1 without Brown? No. In fact, I expect JuJu to be fine as a #1. But, I also expect that he won't have a good game against NE because I think BB will take away JuJu and make us win with Conner, Montcrief, and McDonald.

            Why is taking a wait and see approach with JuJu as the number 1 ruffling so many feathers? We will see how he does he will get plenty of opportunity there is no need to crown him before the season begins. AB is going to be a loss because he was such a threat, as of right now JuJu does not pose the same threat.

              especially when he's being covered 1 on 1 by Jon Bostic.

                I've said it , ...again and again from day one when he was signed that Moncrief was going to be the guy to emerge behind Juju and he's done nothing so far not to dispel that. There is NO DOUBT in my mind, despite what Keenan Allen has said about JuJu that Juju will be good as our # 1 WR.

                Keenan Allen came on NFL website talking that crap about how Juju is going to be shocked when he's the # 1 WR. First of all, Keenan Allen isn't as good as Juju to be giving any type of critique on Juju. Allen is a pedestrian WR at best.

                All this talk about questioning Juju's ability to be our # 1 WR is people still hanging on to memories of ACB. I can see Moncrief putting up 1000 yards this year opposite Juju. That's how good I feel about both of these guys.
                Another great call here, man...about both Moncrief as well as Keenan Allen! Keep spouting that genius, brother!

                Keenan Allen off to best start of any NFL receiver

                Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen has been the NFL’s most productive pass catcher this season, and it isn’t even close.

                Allen has a league-leading 29 catches, a league-leading 404 receiving yards, a league-leading 20 receiving first downs and a league-leading eight catches of 20 yards or more.

                The 27-year-old Allen has made the Pro Bowl each of the last two years, but his big start this year has him on pace for the best season of his career, by far. He has at least eight catches and at least 98 receiving yards in all three games this season.

                Allen is, through three games, the best receiver in the league.

                Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
