Stop telling me this guy is the answer. He is not. 3 bad drops today. He is a marginal NFL player.


he’s a fine #5-6 but those calling for him to start are out of touch with the league.

 

hes a fringe guy that can fill in injury or packages but you need several guys much better than him on a roster.

Duke was the best receiver on our team today. Not sure why people are dogging him. He made several key contested catches that none of our other receivers have made all year. 
 

 


Are you complimenting him or insulting them? 
 

Just something to think about.

We need a physical WR, Duke isn't it but we need that guy. I understand why fans wanted him in the game. 


That’s exactly it— or at least a guy with some stronger hands that can make those tough catches and don’t need the ball to be placed right in their hands. 
 

I don’t think anyone is saying Duke is a number 1 (or 2)— but he is the only guy I have seen on the roster that has ball skills and strength that you want from the WR position. John Brown is a good receiver, but he’s not a

no. 1.

Duke , Beasley and Brown were tied in catches today. The Texans did a pretty good job of neutralizing Brown who normally has twice that many. Duke did exactly what his role should have been all season. For all the haters criticizing him for not catching that throw in the endzone, could anyone else on this team have made that catch? It wasn't that easy especially with Allen's throwing velocity.

Gunner he is not the "answer" but the guy DOES make plays.....we need more guys LIKE HIM in that they shield the ball from defenders and make plays......

 

Brown should be a 2 WR in this offense...until they have addressed that position so that he is we will continue to struggle

Today he failed to make the plays we needed him to make. I don't want him on the roster next year.
