every team "cheats" ... or at least finds every advantage possible.
Cleveland has yet to get the memo maybe (or maybe we don't have Big Ben, Brady, Rodgers, Luck, etc)
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

We can laugh about Antonio Brown's hair, but that guy is an excellent WR. Did you see that catch he made against #21? He stole it from him...........LOL
How did the Steelers acquire Antonio Brown? Wasn't he a 6th or 7th round draft choice?

Are you talking about the TD in the corner of the end zone? He pushed off Butler's shoulder pad on that one, like he does on basically every reception. He irritates the heck out of me.

Haha and I thought I was the only one noticing that, I call him Opi Brown because of it. No clue how he gets away with it so often

No, I am not talking about that play. I am talking about the play where he used one arm and took it off #21's chest. It was a shorter pass on the offensive left side.
Regardless..........where was he drafted? Is he--or is he not---one of the very best WRs in football?

ah, no I don't remember that one. he's got good hands, he's productive, but the man commits a penalty every damn time the ball is in the air.

He is one of the very top WRs in football. I don't think that is debatable.
The Steelers got him at the bottom of the draft.
Those are my points.
I'll leave the crying over whether or not he commits a penalty or not to you and cfrs.

He surprised me in how elusive he is, he only ran a 4.5 at the combine the year he came out and while he caught a lot balls in college his per catch average was pretty low (10.5) for a guy with his abilities.

I was talking about this at school today. The question was: who would be your top 5 WRs in the NFL right now? Here was my list ...
Dez Bryant Antonio Brown Julio Jones Demaryius Thomas Calvin Johnson
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

That is a pretty good list.
Beckham Jr. might be worthy of being on that list in a year or two.

I know I shouldn't ask this... But if you say it's not debatable that he is one of the best wide receivers in football, then why would you ask if people agree that he is one of the best wide receivers in football?
And yes, they drafted him in the 6th round... I think just one year after getting Mike Wallace in the fourth. They also drafted Wheaton in the 4th and Martavis Bryant in the 4th. This year they drafted Sammie Coates... I can't remember if he was the third or the 4th. Either way, they have been very good at drafting receivers in the mid to late rounds.

You might want to reread the question. It was rhetorical. I said something like..............Is he, or is he not, one of the best WRs in football? I thought the answer was obvious.
I resorted to that type of posting because you guys are making more of a point about his push-offs that aren't called rather than the bottom line. Most WRs push off. I don't get the big deal.
The guy is an elite WR. He's very crafty. Has great hands. Runs excellent routes. Blocks. Fights for the ball. Gets open. Makes big plays. Etc........and he was a sixth round choice.
I find that incredible.

We drafted Vince Mayle in the 4th round because he had 1,483 yards in one season in Washington State's offense. He didn't even make the team.
Meanwhile, Rashad Greene had 1,365 yards in Florida State's offense, was drafted in the 5th round by the Jaguars, and he's got 5 catches and a touchdown in his first half of NFL play. Sweet. Great move.

Jordan Cameronk, four catches for 73 yards. We could have transition tagged him and had him for less than we are paying Bowe (who was inactive today).

Mariota gets TD on his first drive. Winston throws a pick 6 on his first pass.
It's supposed to be hard! If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great!

So Carr got injured and Cinci is going to waltz into the division lead. At least Pittsburg lost and Baltimore stands a very good chance of losing.
I look forward to opening day all year only to feel like crap by 4 o'clock... don't know why I even bother.
