Now, in the Jacksonville game other receivers step up and catch what's thrown to them and he's pissed. Granted he was probably demanding a double team, based on his potential, which took pressure off the other receivers; but in that format the offense looked 100% better. Personally I don't think he has room to bitch, he has a better skill set than Jerry Rice, but "he ain't no Jerry Rice". Thoughts?

1. He is an all-pro type player in his 7th year as a pro.
2. He has never played on a winning team.
3. His first 4 years were wasted under coaches and management that were probably the worst in the league.
4. His first five years he played with David Carr
5. In all those years he kept his mouth shut, towed the company line, and didn't say anything about the ineptness of his coaching staff, management, or his quarterback.
6. This is the first time he has said anything of this nature in 7 years, if he wasn't pissed/upset I would be worried about his competitive drive.


- Given all of those points, I think he deserves a little slack if he is makes a comment coming off a game where the offense did everything they could to win a game and break their losing streak, yet the defense couldn't stop the opposing team's offense one time during the 2nd half or overtime.

He is a GOOD guy and team player, so don't start calling him out for making one comment about his frustration regarding being on a losing team for the past 7 years.
