Their catch rate is exactly the same . The yardage is virtually the same. Brown is slightly higher in YPC, but the sample size is small and he had a couple of huge freebie gains against some bad defenses. Again, I'm not sure what you are getting at.

I think it's just the expectations you all have. You'd be blasting Brown for dropping the pass against Indy , or being unable to get the first against LA had we lost, simply because he'd be the #5 pick and should do no wrong

 

I posted the links because I think it is a good analysis. They only have Davis at one drop and Brown at zero- so meh- maybe a toss up. My eye test says Davis less reliable on contested balls and he doesn't lay out in attempt to catch an overthrown ball. I've seen about 3 or 4 that I shook my head saying at least attempt.

Anyway you're spot on that I expect more from Davis being drafted at #5.

 

Meh. You and many others would have said this was a great Mary game.

 

I get why people are higher on Brown. But he's on pace to be much less productive than Davis was a year ago when the QB couldn't grip the ball and the defense was focused on him. The offensive game plan is clearly failing a lot of players, and the lack of decent opportunities makes people nitpick more than they should.

 

Winston throws jump balls to Evans constantly. Yes he's a gifted receiver, but he gets opportunities to show off his skills. How many times do we throw Davis jump balls? Hell, how many times was he even targeted yesterday?

Kinda hard to make plays when they don't throw it to you. When he's targeted, he generally balls out like he did vs San Diego.

 

We will never have a true number 1 receiver with this archaic, predictable 'run, run, pass' offensive philosophy our coaches are stubbornly persisting with.

The game plan was especially moronic considering the Bucs are the number 1 ranked rush defense and 32nd ranked pass defense.

Julio Jones would probably only get 3 targets a game in this offense.

As Jimmy on MCM said: 'The Titans are still an “establish the run stuck in the 1980’s” football team. Their ceiling will be around .500 as long as they stick to that mentality.'

 

Soooooo why was Mariota benched again?

 

Because he is terrible

 

Yep there would be threads popping up one after the other talking about how great Mariota was with 3tds 0 ints and how he led that drive for a TD to Brown to seal the game.
