Unless you do a similar exercise for every other team, what's the point?I think we all know how 2019 whiffs such a Deebo, Metcalf, and Brown are doing [gawd, was painful to watch Deebo last weekend] but how about the more recent whiffs?
Jacobi Meyers certainly looked good last night; every time he caught a pass, I died a little. How is DeAndre Hopkins doing? How about Braxton Berrios? Pickens?
You won't prove whether they're better or worse - heck, as it's a team game, how do you prove anything with this exercise?
Look at Moss in Oakland, then in New England..Look at Ocho in Cinci and then in New England.
People look at statistics at the end of each year and think they tell the whole story, but they don't. No Patriot WR or TE got more than a few targets per game over the last few years - if that's the case, how can any of them get any serious total yards?
I remember a few years ago where Hopkins was getting something like 33% of Watson's targets. That's insane. Tells me more about Watson than
Hopkins, by the way.
