Boy, we sure blew it passing on Hakeem Nicks, huh?

He's a free agent this year, maybe he'll come thus year with benjamin and brown already in place

Wow, didn't really watch the Colts games, but a pretty subpar season for Nicks with Luck throwing it around in a pass-happy offense. A lot of folks were drooling over signing him last year.

Well he did put up those numbers as the #4/5 while Cotch only got that much as the #2. I think Nicks could've helped us win games this year, but Cotch was a more important signing for developing young guys for the future.

I'm sure he played less than cotchery

 

Colts had a fair number of injuries at receiver though, and yet even with that he didn't earn more playing time.

 

Not saying they were equivalent, mind you, but prior to the season people were on here screaming as if passing on Nicks was going to be the biggest mistake this franchise ever made, Gettleman had lost it, blah blah blah.  And the reality is his season wasn't anything all that special.

Lol those stats are totally out of context.

Want to list the # of snaps for each? How bout the stats for the recievers ahead of each of them? Cotchery only had Benjamin and Olsen ahead of him.

Nicks had Tilton, Wayne, Moncrief, Allen, Fleener... Lol.

 

Donte Moncrief is a rookie picked in the third round, Dwayne Allen is a second string tight end and Reggie Wayne is 36 years old and has lost a step.

 

You're gonna blame those guys for Hakeem Nicks not having better stats?

 

But if we'd have signed him, he'd have set the League on fire, right?

      He is also a player that has that "lock room cancer" tag.  We don't see much of the full picture, but I try to stay far away from that type of player. He is historically not good at losing, and we tend to do that a good bit. Not a good fit in my opinion.  I respect the skill, though.

      RODS gotta GO

      I honestly can't think of a teams first line basically telling the coach to fug off like last night's line of Aho, Jarvis and Svechnikov did to Rod.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Do you even know what the term "below average" means? Because I'm genuinely not sure if you do. There are 32 QB's in the league, which means to be playing "above average" he'd have to be the 15th best QB at the league, and even then, that's in essence the "average NFL QB" still. Even going by these rankings, which have him 20th, that by itself is the definition of "below average", and that's before you consider there are multiple QB's ranked below him in this list that I'd 100% trade him for in a heartbeat. Again, no matter what you think the eye test tells you, he's made 28 starts and has a grand total of FOUR games over 247 yards.  Drake Maye has made 10 starts, all with a significantly worse group of pass catchers than Bryce has had, and he already has 3 games over that number himself. I don't need to see or know anything else beyond that to determine he is a below average QB in this league so far and I don't know how anyone can honestly argue against that.  If he was a Lamar Jackson type putting up 75+ yards rushing on a consistent basis, then you can look at those passing yards differently, but that's not the case here. Could he still improve and get to average or better?  Of course. But you're trying to extrapolate a few throws/drives/moments from a handful of games and trying to say that makes him even an average, if not above average, QB in this league.  Which is just nonsense when the players you're comparing him to have played at that level for full seasons or their entire careers.
