I find it amazing how one catch on a big market team, vs a big market team suddenly propels you into super stardom. 

 

That wasn't propelled him to super stardom, it was the 288 receptions, 4122 yds and 35 TDs in his first three season in the NFL. He was a three time Pro Bowler on his rookie deal.

The bulk of his issues are health related. In his last five seasons, he had played more than 7 games a year just twice. Both those years he was a 1000+ yard WR.

Don't get it twisted, OBJ was one of the best WR's in the NFL. The question is, is he still that?

He had 1k yards receiving 5 of his first six seasons? 

 

Do y'all watch football? 

62 yards a game is (was) a 1000 yard season.    Any feautred RB or #1 WR in theory should hit that if healthy. 

now, it's just 58 yards a game. 

OBJ is physically gifted WR.....that is injury prone, a basketcase and a shitty teammate.  So in summary, he isn't a great WR.

Dude OBJ was ballin when he first got in the league. He is washed up now. Could maybe have some sort of resurgence if he gets with the right team. 
 

injuries and off the field stuff (like a video of him doing the Bolivian marching powder) and his daddy crying about throwing him the ball on Twitter aren’t good looks.

Lesson of 2021 - when your daddy has to come out to make the case for you.....you done.  Sorry, Cam.  That's you too.   And don't get all crazy people.  Cam is my all time favorite Panther.   But his career is over.   And that's not really fair but that's what it is.

Outside the last three years, his career average is 92.8 yds/game.

Don't use him being a nutcase and banged up to diminish how good of a player he was.

I remember people doing that to Terrell Owens too. I hated that dude but he was an all-time great WR.

Fair. But there are also a lot of other good players that put up stats, but play on smaller market teams.

      I understand why your brain translates "cool, calm, and collected" into a pejorative like "boring milquetoast" since you're genuinely the polar opposite of cool calm and collected, as someone who awkwardly escalates every innocuous statement into multi-paragraph performative rants as if someone just slapped your mother.  I assure you that well-adjusted people do not consider that to be an insult in the real world...not ass-backwards Internet Land where it's cool and trendy to be a Debbie Downer and being "too positive" is thrown around as a slur.  I remember you bragging about taking two days away from these boards as if that was a big accomplishment for you, which was eye-opening to say the least.  I genuinely hope this is just some internet character you're playing, because the way you act on these boards would be objectively so off-putting in the real world.  I've known a couple people like this and it's always incredibly socially awkward and sucks the energy out of the room; these are the people who don't get invited out to social events. But instead of properly absorbing and learning from these social cues in person, you're being enabled by your fellow gloomy weird internet friends here which only encourages you to spend more and more of your time online to get the approval you crave.  Just some life advice, my friend...since I'm assuming you are very young.  Don't spend all of your time in here.  There's a whole world out there with real people and meaningful connections.  And despite what the internet has taught you, being pleasant is a good thing. Btw it's really interesting how you ignored this part and instead honed in on a singular 2-second moment that I referenced and saying that I "summed him up" that way.  But hey, this is ass-backwards Internet Land after all.
