after rewatching the AZ game, i've noticed that he wasn't even close to playing up to par on that bad achilles. yes, i realize he was playing injured but who's to say that slowness and lack of production won't stay with him? i'm a huge believer in him, he's a beast and will do whatever it takes to get back to 100%. what do you guys think?

100% after a full achilles tear is basically impossible

70-80% if you're lucky

so then why the fug would the medical/training/coaching staff let him play?

every year we have an incredible amount of players go down to injury. when was the last time we had a medical staff change-up?

posted this already on here, a study looking at achilles injuries in the nfl very recently showing roughly 1/3 never played in the nfl again post-injury and ones that did return saw a large increase in the number of missed games as well as a ratings/production drop about 50% on average. feel free to search for it if you want

      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.
