Yep, everyone else is bringing the lazy takes.If you have watched any Atlanta Falcons games this season you'd have the context.
One of the best route runners in the entire NFL.
You sound like every fantasy football player this past year who would get offended when you dared to say Calvin Ridley wasn't the best receiver in football.
Player A: 90 Catches, 143 Targets, 1374 Yards
Player B: 111 Catches, 166 Targets, 1426 Yards
Player C: 97 Catches, 128 Targets, 831 Yards
Player D: 100 Catches, 132 Targets, 1054 Yards
Player E: 83 Catches, 129 Targets, 1303 Yards
A? Ridley this year
B? Juju in 2018
C? Juju this year
D? Tyler Lockett this year
E? DK Metcalf this year
Player E is, by far, the best player out of the group. But please, tell me more about how these stats are important without context. If Ridley is this transcendent talent like you claim, then certainly that 2018 season put up by Juju, which was better than Ridley's and at a younger age, must mean that he's approaching Randy Moss and Jerry Rice territory by now!
Oh wait...
Maybe context is important. Maybe, without context, someone would say that Lockett is the better receiver in Seattle because he caught a higher percentage of the balls thrown to him. Maybe, without context, someone would draw the conclusion that 2018 Juju was a transcendent superstar, and obvious Alpha #1 receiver in the league. Maybe, without context, someone would draw similar conclusions from Calvin Ridley's situation this year.
How's Blake Bortles doing? Certainly he's a stud after his 4400 yard 2015 season, right? He threw 35 touchdowns!
You hear others use the term "lazy" so you try and throw it right back at them. The problem is, it doesn't fit. You're using it incorrectly. The "If you watched any Atlanta Falcons games this year" is a great one to throw in as well. Bravo.
The guy who has proven to everyone on this board that he will not do even the smallest amount of research when discussing a topic is claiming that others haven't done any research on the topic. Methinks thou doth protest too much.
