So Robbie in 19, and 20 had almost 2000 receiving yards combined if not just over that (from memory).

Yet with a bad QB, and OL you want to hold a down season strictly against him...

Some of y'all weird af.

Let Terrace Marshall Jr prove why we drafted him in the second round. Robbie can ride off into the sunset with his bestie.

Bakers deep ball is pretty damn accurate, he has one of the strongest arms in the game.  Robby could feast with Baker.  Hopefully they'll iron it out and the latest signs are that they will.

Robbie played very well in '20. He played like the worst WR in the league last season. You can't blame passes bouncing off of his hands on the QB no matter who it is.

This honestly sounds like damage control from the team. All the “you feel me” and “ummm” really comes off like he doesn’t care and isn’t genuine. He opened his mouth about baker now he looks like an idiot for saying it.

Robbie has talent but if the ceiling of that talent were as high as some think (like the guy who mentioned he had almost 2k yards receiving once) there would be a trade market for him and we would have already moved him. Look at what teams have given up for other receivers in trades and salary. And if anyone thinks the team put him up to this acting like a fool groveling over Sam Darnold all I can do is laugh.

I don't have an issue with Robbie sticking up for Darnold. They've played a lot of football together and spent a lot of time in the same locker room. It'd be pretty shitty of Robbie to bash Darnold IMO.

Worst team in the league with two of the worst starters at their positions patting each other on the back. Now that sounds like the new Browns.

Yeah, I mean they are still human beings. Robby might have a completely different things to say about Darnold privately to his friends but you kind of have to be a real POS to just trash a teammate publicly.

It's a no win situation. If he bashed Darnold then everyone would call him a bad teammate and point out how terrible he was himself last year. And everyone would be right.

The no win situation began thanks to Matt Rhule choosing to start the foundation of his roster with two players the Jets discarded. The same franchise that has 1 winning season in the last 11 years.

Throw in signing Cam Erving and Elflein on day 1 of FA, hand all that over to a college passing game coordinator and that's a recipe for failure

All we need to do is switch out HC's every couple of years.

I pied this post even though I fall into the “weird Af” category.  I agree he had a down year and really hope he turns it around this year.  I think the big problem with the ridicule is he makes himself an easy target.  If you are going to drop as many balls as he did you probably shouldn’t be posting nonsensical look at me posts without expecting the consequences.  

I don’t hate Robbie, I just wish he would catch more and post less.

Everyone might want a Pete Carroll/Mike Tomlin/John Harbaugh but you can't keep your Hue Jackson/Matt Patricia/Urban Meyers hoping they will become one.

That's the problem with Rhule. He's on the Jackson/Patricia/Meyer end of the scale, not the Carroll/Tomlin/Harbaugh end of the scale.

Unfortunately we don't have leadership capable of seeing that yet. The best we can hope for is that Tepper isn't as dumb as he has been so far and he really is learning from his never ending stream of mistakes.
