Why our WRs are not Good



What ever happened to wide receivers wearing numbers in the 80's? Here is our list of current WR's.
# 17 Donnie Avery
# 14 Keenan Burton
# 16 Danny Amendola
# 11 Brandon Gibson
# 15 Tim Carter
# 82 Ruvell Martin
and #19 Laurent Robinson

Our WR's in 1999.
# 80 Isaac Bruce
# 88 Torry Holt
# 81 Az Hakim
# 87 Ricky Proehl
# 82 Tony Horne
# 83 Chris Thomas

I have single handedly found the root of all our WR problems! Wide receivers catch balls according to the number they wear on their jerseys!

i've wondered the same thing

since when do wideouts wear teen numbers in the nfl? i’ve seen it in college, but never at the professional level.

jd is legend for Cardinals' closer 2010!!

Since a couple of years ago.

I think teams started complaining because they only had 10 available numbers for receivers/tight ends. If you retire one or 2, you’re really in a bind.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

Randy Moss, #18, MN Vikings

1n 1998 when they set a then league record for most points scored.

I must be really old, huh?

Lived in LA during the Rams and Raiders days. Now based in NorCal, I am still a die hard Rams fan and Raiders season ticket holder.

Are we

at the professional level?

haha, thats good

well, what happens when Jake Locker is throwing passes to them, didn’t think of that. Besides, ruvell martin hasn’t even played yet, and tim carter shouldn’t even be on the team

Hey, I like this guy.

Release Bulger and give his #10 to someone more deserving. I want Jake Locker!

thank you JBaccSTL!!!

Jake Locker is the only QB in the draft that can take on pressure, and Bradford can’t be trusted with a bad offensive line.

Yo Garrett

You think he’ll still be the top rated QB come draft day? I hope Clausen stays in and Locker declares. That’s the only way I’ll feel safe b/c I DON’T want Clausen.

Who Can

Be trusted with a bad offensive line? Let’s count them all up.
1. Peyton Manning
2.

Well...

I’d say Roethlisberger did pretty friggin decent last year behind one of the worst O-lines in the league.

by JBaccSTL on Oct 30, 2009 4:50 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Fair enough

1. Peyton Manning
2. Roethlisberger

Roethlisberger hold the ball really long

So it could be his own fault if he got sacked a lot.

Reserved-- been waiting 7 weeks to have this sig, I guess I can wait 1 more

Steelers can't run well either

not like they used to, anyway.

of course, I can’t run as well as I used to either.

That's his game though.

Some QBs like Jay Cutler use their feet to create time. Ben just lets defenders bounce off him.

I dont like clausen either.
I really think he’s getting spoiled with those WRs of his.
He’ll commit suicide after Week 3 with the WRs that we have

Even tony homo

sometimes but cant escape the pressure holding a kick.
