If he were better at getting into the endzone, he'd essentially be prime Jerry Rice.

Until this season Thielen has been a red zone god so that's part of it.

We haven't run a successful screen of any kind in at least 7 years.

Makeup call from the missed facemask.

Meanwhile the Pats are just gashing with screens.

Minnesota has great personnel to run a screen and literally no idea how to execute it.

Helluva play by Pat Pete to end whatever chance we had to fuck that up. 9-2 hell yeah.

Jones putting his whole body into 20 yard passes will never not be funny to me.

Meyers absolutely caught that with the assumption they still had a timeout.

There were several poor awareness/poor football IQ instances by the Pats in that game. Weird to see out of them, was always a strength for two decades.

Nearly prime Jerry Rice still isn’t as good as Tyreke?

If a couple of breaks went our way the pats could have eked out the victory. Moral losses still suck.

Surprised we couldn't take advantage of a depleted vikings o line.

Well the touchdowns are a big part of it! Jerry Rice was the best in the NFL at getting into the end zone. Jefferson is not that. In that circumstance, he's more of an Andre Johnson type.

Tyreke has one fewer touchdown than JJ. To be clear, I think Tyreke has a valid case as the leagues best receiver, I just want it to make sense.

I'd argue there's no gameplanning for Jefferson, thus making him the best WR

Now, Jefferson is better than Diggs, but that really ended up being a win-win trade. Not often do you trade a superstar and the replacement ends up being just as good/better

Looks @ Titans

Jefferson for Diggs is definitely in the top .01% of win/win trades in the history of professional sports.
