Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera....

The funny part about what you posted is exactly true.  I don't know how many times we've faced teams in desperate situations really needing a win, and those teams are SOOOOO hard to put away.  We put the Saints in the grave with their 0-3 start, we put our foot on the necks of the Seahawks and put them at 2-4, we ripped the heart out of Green Bay and put them in a spiral.  Facing a listless and downtrodden team is infinitely easier than beating a team backed into a corner needing a win.  Philadelphia still had hope in their season, Washington had hope in their season, hell the Cowboys had hope in their season, these teams with NFL talent were coming in fired up to take us down and get their ship righted, and each time we've stomped on their throat.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
