The way we talk about moss, megatron, jerry rice, TO is the way we need to be talking about reek 10 years from now

I'm not an in the moment type person, and I've said for at least two or three years now that Tyreek Hill is the most dangerous offensive weapon in the NFL and the best WR.

Moss and Owens were the top two when I was growing up. I have the nostalgia for them, but Tyreek is right there with them, and I think he may end up finishing his career as a the superior player. People can look at Moss height and jumping ability and looks at how strong Owens was and the way he could run in the open field. However, Hill just has the extra gear. People act like all he can do is go deep. He goes short and across the middle. He doesn't shy away from contact or get alligator arms. I think too many people still under-rate him and think just because he's smaller that he's not on the same level as other all-time greats.

Hip drop tackle looks like it just claimed another body, that injury on Rhamondre Stevenson looked bad

When they take it out the game it'll be very important how they word the officiating in the rule book. It's going to be hard to take people down from certain angles when its implemented

Agreed entirely. His method is different but he's just as or more effective.

I think this should also affect how scouts scout WRs and how coaches utilize WRs. A talent like john ross wouldn't be out the league if he was used differently. Ruggs would've been doing damage right now too had he not had the incident. Neither are reek but the type of WR he is hasn't been truly tapped into and I think he can open the doorway.
