I actually am not criticizing him at all I am saying he is not as good or close to as good as Wes Welker and he is not worth $5 million a season.
You are obsessed with negative posts about Amendola. At least admit it.
Only 25 receivers make more than $5 million a season in the entire NFL and Wes Welker is likely the best slot receiver to ever take an NFL football field so my saying those 2 things is not that critical in my opinion.
You cant really expect anyone to take it seriously that you think those are the only 2 things you have said in HUNDREDS of Amendola slamming posts.
Amendola is a fine player who is certainly someone I would want to be on our football team, I would just want him here at about half the cost and without the foolish lofty expectation that he was going to individually fill the void left by Welker.
Well those are your expectations.
His cap number is 3.5 mill
I don’t agree AJ; in my opinion it is worth pointing out that 93.75% of Amendola’s receptions go for an average of 8.9 yards per reception this season and the 2 receptions in the Steelers game making up the remaining 6.25% of his receptions accounted for 91 receiving yards total. I find nothing silly about looking at what a player does the majority of the time and 93.75% is obviously the majority of the time.
Of course you do, because it is a new and fun way to slam him.
A statistic that is an AVERAGE is based upon all of the plays. Taking away ones you wish to makes it no longer an average, and is comparable to nothing unless you take away cherry picked stats from everyone.
Its silly and you know it.
People can be loyal to Amendola and say that he is going to get better in time that is fine but how can you argue that a receiver who currently ranks:
Loyalty has nothing to do with it.
- 96th in receiving yards
- 87th in yards per reception
- 55th in yards per game
- 108th in touchdowns
- 87th in yards after the catch
He has missed games with injury and has played injured.
Is worthy of being paid in the top 30 in the NFL amongst wide receivers? I am not being critical I am just outlining the situation at hand, sometimes people find it easier to ignore the reality of something and instead diminish the poster who illustrates it.
I'm not sure what that even means, but IMO, your point of view is wrong, and your obsession with it is annoying.
People criticizing your posts are not doing so because they are trying to ignore anything about Amendola, they are criticizing your posts because the quality and content of them deserves criticism.
You consistently exaggerate, embellish and play funny with the facts.
At the end of the day whether you rip my posts or say I hate Amendola his productivity is still the same and disparaging me doesn’t change that hard truth.
I'm not disparaging you, I am telling you your opinions and method of communicating them are poor.
Note that I have not said anything about YOU, as you again try to deflect away from the facts and come up with some bizarre claim that people who disagree with you are ripping you personally in order to hide from the facts.
You simply have a weak argument here, and your style of communicating it just makes it worse.
In the end though, I think that everyone on this board has seen volumes that tell us exactly what you think about Amendola, and all would be happy if you let those 100s of posts be your final words on the matter.
