I'm beginning to hate that word. No one becomes "proven" until they're actually given a shot.

L M F A O You're using that play as proof that Megatron doesn't have great hands? Stop, just stop right now...

It must have been early in the season because he wasn't among the leaders at season's end. He did drop at least two passes in the Super Bowl.

Guess we're lucky the games don't get played till September.

Same.

Are you referring to the deep ball? If so, that pass wasn't clearly meant for Doss at all. Unless Q was really winded, there would be no need for Doss to spell him much. Seemingly every time someone on this board defends a player from irrational hate, they're a "fan". I love it.I'm not a "Doss fan". I'm just not willing to dismiss the possibility of him ever contributing like so many seem to have. He's done more than just make some catches in pre-season. His 39-yard catch against Cleveland, 26-yard catch against Oakland and 40-yard punt return against the Broncos alone showed me the guy at least has the talent to contribute.

Doss has never been a burner. With Q moving inside, the offense would be even easier to defend if they brought on another possession WR like Doss instead of a burner like Jones to prevent defenses from taking away Torrey. You're comparing apples to oranges by mentioning Pierce. It's much easier to spell a RB and get him touches than effectively work in a WR in a passing game, especially when you've already got multiple targets.

That's senseless logic. You're not always going to have proven players ready to take over. There weren't any proven players replacing JJ going into this past season but Upshaw and Kruger thrived. If players never get a shot, we'll never know what they can do. We have no way of knowing whether the Indy is a fair representation of Doss' game but the organization does, seeing as they've seen him in practice and have all the film necessary to evaluate over the past two seasons. And I'd be surprised if they concluded one bad game is representative of his game overall. Doss was targeted three times. "Dropsy Doss". Cute nickname. Did you read my post properly? I simply compared their numbers. He doesn't get much playing time because Q thrives in the slot, as does Pitta, and Jones offer more down-field ability. If he never caught any of the passes thrown his way, how did he compile 7 catches during the season?

He'd have more than one WR if Doss and the younger WRs actually got an opportunity. There's no need to generalize on rookie WRs going on IR either. Streeter was raw and didn't contribute on special teams. He was a prime IR candidate. So three drops means he's not an worthy heir apparent? Right. Doss doesn't make enough catches because he doesn't get many opportunities. It's not a difficult concept to grasp.

I didn't make your point at all. Doss' terrible against the Colts doesn't mean he has bad hands. I don't remember a single dropped pass from him in the regular season. If Q was cut and not re-signed, the team wouldn't be doomed as some people seem to have convinced themselves. WRs often break out in their third season and in a better offense, I think Torrey could make serious statistical jump. Doss has room to improve with more opportunities, there's Streeter and Thompson and there's always the draft to add talent.

The passing game wasn't built on easy completions. Torrey was targeted 110 times and caught 49 balls in the regular season. Q caught 65 of 112 passes thrown his way.

Where are you getting this from? Did you chart all 18 passes thrown to him in the regular season (according to ESPN) and the few in the post-season? Or, like seemingly most people, are you basing your opinion on on him solely based on what you saw from him against Indy?

II is definitely the best movie in the franchise. My only issue with it was how little action Donnie Yen got. The final fight was awesome though.

Glad Milan won too. Barca will be going all out in the second but I don't see Milan being conservative. Should be an amazing game.

Another shameful display from Arsenal last night. Tonight's Barca/Milan contest should be fun though.

Watched it again several days ago as well. People don't rate it much but it's probably my third favourite Tarantino flick.

Interesting. I've got to check it out at some point.

Never checked out SoA. Is it still airing?

Same. Been watching re-watching Seasons 1-3 the past few months.

Can't wait for Season 4 of Community to start in February.

Watched Be Kind Rewind last night. Mos and Jack Black made a pretty good pair and the soundtrack had a few gems as well. Quality movie.

The rich get richer. It's disgusting. Meanwhile, the only transfer news regarding Arsenal that seems to be gaining ground is good-for-nothing Chamakh going to West Ham.

Arsne rarely comes clean on potential moves and he certainly wouldn't when the club will be playing the player in question in a few days. I won't be surprised if Ba isn't but it's still a possibility.

That would be a serious tandem. I'm hoping Arsenal make a move for Demba Ba.

He's still a good player; he simply hasn't got many opportunities (which is partly his fault). He still may end up getting sold next month but Mancini has said he'll get another chance.
