I think the more time goes by without odell the more people revert back to the legend of odell rather than the player odell
Everyone always dances around it because they don’t want to have a hot take, but I really don’t care. The problem with Odell is he hasn’t played like a top 30 receiver.
It’s not Baker’s fault. It’s not coach’s fault. It’s not a coincidence how much better our offense was as soon as he went out.
He’s just not a very good receiver at this point. I honestly didn’t watch much of the Giants. I relied on this board for analysis on him. Then I watched every single game he played on the Browns and he is pretty clearly worse than Landry who himself is probably fringe top 20-25 WR
I know no one wants to say it, but the problem is OBJ just isn’t what he apparently once was. He had plenty of drops, plenty of times where he didn’t make plays that top WRs routinely make. Excuses get made over and over for one reason or another, but I’m confident Beckham will be just as bad next year. I really hope I’m wrong for obvious reasons, but the reluctance to just call his poor performance out and blame it on everything else is frustrating to me
The legend of odell Beckham is FAR greater than the player Odel Beckham
He got 1000yds on 14ypc while playing last season in a complete clusterfuck situation and a *sports hernia*. This year he had the same 14ypc before he tore his ACL. While I won't say he's top 3-5 receiver in the League until he proves it again, to say a guy gets 1000yds WITH A SPORTS HERNIA "is not a very good receiver" is more than a bit ridiculous.
