June 11Jun 11 I'd love to be able to watch the NBA again but between the WWF style refereeing and flopping it's so hard. The NBA is just blatantly in the bag for the Spurs. This is 100% going to 7 games no matter what the NBA has to do.Magically, next game, they'll start calling it even again and the Knicks will win.

A tiny, almost irrelevant sliver of TO's career achievement came with the Eagles.The WR that accomplished the most in an Eagles uniform? Yeah, AJ has a much better claim on that than TO.They hate AJ so much now that 2 years of1963yds 20TDsIs better than 4 years of5034yds 32TDs and that's with a 2k RB

June 11Jun 11 It's fascinating to highlight the variability of aging in football. All sports, but especially football.Julio Jones deserved to be mentioned in or near the class of these WRs. 6 consecutive pro-bowl seasons with 1,400 yards or more (well, one was 1394).Yet, by the time he was 34 (and here), he was tragically cooked and non-viable. Really didn't belong on a roster. IMO, he was every bit as good as TO in his prime. Yet...at 34, TO had an absurd 1355 yards and 15 TDs.At just 30 years old after a 1400 yard all pro season, I doubt Falcons fans figured that Jones had just registered the last good season of his entire career.

If he didn’t retire at 30 (9 seasons) and played til he was 37 like Fitz a good chance he would’ve had better overall numbers than fitz. Megatron played 135 games had 731 receptions, 11619 yards and 83 TDs. Fitz played 263 games had 1432 receptions, 17492 yards and 121 tds. Meaning fitz finished with 701 receptions, 5873 yards and 38 tds more than megatron. If megatron plays 8 more seasons (fitz played 8 more than megatron) he’d have had to avg 87.6 receptions, 734 yards and 4.8 tds per season. Very likely passes fitz at least in yards and TDsI won’t argue that line of thinking.

He would’ve had a legit chance at passing TO, fitz and Moss in yards and receptions (potentially TDs) if he played til he was 35 and 37 like they all did

A tiny, almost irrelevant sliver of TO's career achievement came with the Eagles.The WR that accomplished the most in an Eagles uniform? Yeah, AJ has a much better claim on that than TO.Agree that it is TO. I'm not even sure I would say TO achieved more. Because TO achieved what AJ always wishes he could have had. TO put the team on his back and had an amazing Super Bowl performance as the best player on the field, despite playing 6 weeks after Roy Williams snapped his leg which was now being held together by screws, and he lost the Super Bowl. That was always AJ Brown's dream scenario. Didn't really matter to win or lose a Super Bowl but to just go out there and put on a breathtaking performance as the best player on the field, win or loss. So by AJ's own standards, TO accomplished the pinnacle of everything AJ wishes he could have instead of the hell that AJ was cursed to just be an important part of some really great teams.Career best WR is going to be DeVonta Smith running away with it when it is all done and said. He will be considered the best WR in the NFL this season and he and Hurts will win at least one more Super Bowl together here.
June 11Jun 11 AJ Brown to me is in like an Andre Johnson tier. Really, really darn good. Still, how often do people remember the name Andre Johnson? AJ should be mostly forgotten not long after he is done.

His raw production doesn't put him on any greatest Eagle list.Devonta Smith's production as an Eagle doesn't look all that different from Jeremy Maclin. He's got work to do if he's going to run away with career best Eagles WR.

Anyway, AJ Brown isnt near that stratosphere.TO is #2. Calvin has no claim. Moss being put over TO has always irritated me. Moss put up an all time great season with the best QB ever in his physical prime? Nice job. But he was also a ghost with the Raiders during his own prime and then every place thereafter the Patriots quickly moved on from him.Best QB TO ever played was Steve Young very early in his career as a late round draft pick when he eventually when he took the torch from Rice. It didn't matter whichever QB was playing or what team TO was on. He always dominated. Tim Rattay? Dominated. He was tearing it up in his late 30s in Buffalo when it was a wasteland with Ryan Fitzpatrick as TO was helping make him into Ryan Fitzpatrick. After that went to the the Bengals and instantly took over an in his prime Ocho Cinco as the best WR on the team despite being like 38 and was on pace for an absolute monster season before tearing his ACL early in their 14th game with 72 rec, 983 yards and 9 TDs.Got one last chance with Seattle in 2012 and I remember he was still burning DBs and getting open deep but dropped a bunch of passes in preseason. His final preseason game he finally caught a bomb of a TD which he had completely cooked the defender. Seahawks cut him. Always felt if they kept him he not only would have had a great year for them but they would have won the Super Bowl a year early instead of losing a close game in the divisional round to the Falcons.He could have kept playing for at least 5-8 years after that. I still think he could play at some level honestly. Moss was not better than TO and I'm glad he never won a ring because he did not deserve one over TO.
June 11Jun 11 Let's look at Devanta being an animal in the playoffs before we shortchange his greatness. Definitely has a shot at being an all time Eagles great receiver. On board with that notion. AJ pales in in comparison. Only need to look at last year vs 49ers. **** the bed and had an all time terrible Eagles playoff performance. That's a big ding for me in his Eagles legacy.EOD, had 2 dominant years as an Eagle. 2 good other years. That is with all pros all along the offense and offensive line. And regarding TO not nearly the supporting cast. More impressed with TOs greatness and. Superbowl legend.

But no one can ever have TO outside of 5th, and clearly AJ is nowhere near this tier of player.
