Wasn't calling you out specifically. Just making a general comment about DLF. Every time some young guy starts to impress, the SELL SELL SELL comments flood the forum.
Every time I see somebody even have a decent game people are all over trying to buy them.

This thread is more like a celebration for Gordon owners, so the slightest criticism won't be dealt with well I suppose.

Boy I'm gonna be excited when the Browns upgrade at QB and Gordon goes into his breakout 3rd year! :D

I might have to give another player back. But he said he would think about it. I know he likes Hunter, but I do too. What do you guys think?
Yup easy accept, dez = Gordon = free Fitz

I just hope the early success doesn't get to his head. I don't like the fact that he is mouthing off about Talib. The great ones let their play do the talking. Love him. Own him. Want to see him all grown up.

Nothing bad anyways. The media takes a tidbit from an interview and spin one comment for traction. Gordon praised Talib and said he's a great player. Gordon said talib will make plays for his team, but he was (Gordon) gonna try to make more.

How good has Talib been this season? Thinking about benching Gordon for Larry Fitzgerald. Thoughts?

Watching this game and spotlighting the Gordon vs Talib matchup, Gordon is toasting him all over the field, if Campbell wasn't so useless Gordon would be having another monster day.


Edit: Gordon just took a slant 80 yards for a td lol

I guess it's safe to say, if you had ANY doubts about this kid's dominance...put them to rest. Wow. Almost benched him for Fitz because I was worried. But I listened to WZA and started my stud. The snow in Philly is probably going to cost me a title this year, but I feel good knowing I have Gordon! Keep your head on straight kid!!!

Your point is still valid, he's been open all day. With a franchise QB, this guy would be unstoppable.

I was...not his ability as a good receiver, but his worthiness as being called superhuman. There was a lot of "matchup" proof talk. He's only done it for two weeks. Yada yada yada. But the stage that most are putting him on is beyond "good". I am one his biggest supporters but even I had a few remaining question marks. He was going up against a team that historically does well to scheme the best guys out. Furthermore, he was going up against one of the league's premier corners. (Last week it was because he played against inferior talent). He called his shot and delivered! With Campbell at QB. As WZA pointed out, the league's most valuable asset (Jimmy Graham) was SHUT DOWN by this very corner and defense. But I wasn't sure if he was truly "Megatron" special. After today's game, I have to say I am a full believer in this kid. What he has done is nothing short of remarkable. He's only in year two. He's never seeing the bench again. Period.
