try again

It would be so nice to have Sterling

be a stud for this team. Take the pressure off of Cruz so he can ease himself into the season.
It sounds like it's all in the spirit of good competition.

Shepherd will have 4 extra games to do it, but he will also not be the #1 and maybe not even the #2, so good luck, bro.

could happen OBJ missed a good chunk of time with the injury his rookie season.
OBJ is like the anti-new age WR...

There is no diva, there is no selfishness and there is a genuine desire to root for his teammates and friends. He's a rare dude and we are so damn lucky to have him.
goddamn i can't wait to see #80 #13 #87 on the field together

I know its impossible, but I think Brown is the same way. Imagine those 2 together?

Brown/Beckham would be insane but I'd want to see Beckham/Julio even more. That combo would be absolutely unstoppable. It would be a video game on easy.

It could but I can see with almost certainty it wont happen.

We dont need that anyway.

usually when players put up big numbers, the team is doing well.
When the team is doing well, they usually win games.
For a "team" to win you need your WRs to catch the ball and score TDs.

You're abysmal.

How does challenging Shepard to break his Giants' rookie receiving record do anything but encourage, Umm you know, winning?

Negative Nancy?
jarvis landry is just as good but doesnt get the credit he deserves

Landy is def not just as good.  
Keith : 6/30/2016 3:12 pm : link
Landry is awesome and underrated, but OBJ is on another level.

No he's not.
yeah, that's a silly comment  
Greg from LI : 6/30/2016 3:38 pm : link
Jarvis Landry is a nice player. OBJ is a top 5 WR.
If Shepard is as good as everyone thinks he is  
BigBlueDownTheShore : 6/30/2016 5:52 pm : link
OBJs number might be slightly down
Big bro is my favorite part of that

Odell is actually a veteran team leader at this point. He needs to lead by example on the field, no longer will "he's still young" be an excuse.

I googled Calvin Jones....he doesn't look like a guy who will go over the middle for you.

It's great to know that if Shepherd gets

most of the targets, Odell won't complain about it :)
Love this

Just the fact that there is open discussion about Sheppard coming close to Beckham's rookie statistics, even in 16 games, is great discussion. Something tells me Sheppard and Beckham arent fool shit talkers. I like this.
