I'm cautiously optimistic. I remember Steve Smith missing some time early in Keary Colbert's rookie season and KC having a few impressive games (I wanna say Denver and Tampa Bay maybe?). I hope Gettis doesn't pull a Colbert!

I remember that Denver game and it wasn't quite up to par with what Gettis did today. Gettis showed flash, instinct, and precise route running today which are things Keary never had.

I've been on the Gettis bandwagon since TC. You could just see him making progress every week, and it was just a matter of time before he had a breakout game.

Steve Smith pissed me off today though.

yep. Same here. People were saying he'd be lucky to make the PS.

My fingers are crossed he's gonna be something realllll special

Just saw his interview on fox. Very mature and poised young man. Reminds me of a young moose. I think we're in good shape with this dude at WR!

That's one of the main things that impressed me about Gettis in the beginning. The first time I heard him do an interview, I knew he was a keeper. When you combine intelligence with natural physical abilities, you can't go wrong.

6th round rookie WR playing like a veteran. He was drafted for ST purposes (remember that one?) and won this job in training camp and is improving every single game.

I just can't remember the last time I saw a late draft rookie WR stepping up like this

Love this guy

You just can't teach that 4th and 4 catch he made after coming back to help his QB while everyone else just stood there confused

Dude, you post this 20 days ago & now we saw something like that today along with making up for it with a 2nd TD. Are you Miss Cleo in disguise?!? :eek: :P

But count me in!! :thumbsup:

      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.
