There's no one in the NFL today even 50 percent of what Steve was in his prime. He's one of the only players I've ever seen that just would destroy the spirit of the defense in real time.

Legit Hall of Famer

He's no Steve Smith but he does play the game very similar to 89. I was watching the game vs Det and im like man there were glimpses that reminded me of 89. The way he holds the ball with one hand breaking tackles after catches. No one is saying he's 89, but his game does emulates it.

More than a few Huddlers---arguably smart football guys---used to downplay the talents of Doug Baldwin and Golden Tate. I used to always say that Bladwin and Golden Tate were ballers. They are tough, smart, superb route runners, and have good hands. It's a bit of a stretch to compare any receiver to Steve Smith, but both Baldwin and Tate have been likened to him at different times in their careers. That's a high compliment, and a testament to their games.

There is only one 89, but Baldwin and Tate are receivers that you absolutely want on your team though.

There's only one Smitty. He created a new template for a receiver that players want to emulate.

Some are fast. Some are brave. Some will fight you. Some will run precise routes. Some will give their all to compete for every ball thrown their way. Some have attitude.

None have it all. Except for him.

    • Ehhhh I hate 3 out of the four but harbor special hatred for the two afc squads 
    • If you want to say DJ ran a lazy route, fine. But that throw was garbage. There was a window just outside the hash marks but that ball was thrown damn near to the sideline. I don't know what route DJ was supposed to run but if you're Ben Johnson you also have to know your QB in this situation. Williams is a gunslinger at heart and any points on this drive wins you the game. You gotta protect him from himself and be methodical. Draw up a deep shot and he's probably gonna uncork that thing whether it's there or not. There's also the reality that DJ might have been concussed. He took a hard hit on the sidelines earlier and spent several minutes in the tent and just never looked the same in that game after that. I put some blame all the way around on this one. DJ didn't run the greatest route and seemed to not be expecting the ball. Williams through a bad ball and tool an unwise risk at that point in the game. And Johnson set himself up to get show in his own foot by his gunslinger.
    • Statistically, Bryce should NOT be a starting QB, and the consistency shows that. He shows up against favorable secondaries, and disappears against good ones. Hopefully now the team is focused on giving him better receivers and the receivers will win games on their own, ala Steve Smith type receivers, and he won’t be as big of a liability. That’s asking a lot for a #1 overall pick QB to need that of course. Whe we just had a QB before Bryce that took teams to the playoffs with Brenton Bersin and Kaylin Clay as his top receivers
