[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1049183, member: 17953"] The difference in receivers is amazing. They're just like fingerprints in many respects. No two quite alike. What we see in Watson is the guy who can get you the longer pass reception, but occasionally will not make that catch. He's good for that unexpected play that catches the other team asleep at the wheel. Doubs, on the other hand, is a possession type receiver. He's the #1 guy they go to in the intermediate depth passing game, and just beyond the sticks on 3rd down. His "per catch" total will never rival that of Watson, but I doubt anyone else on the team can match up to him in production when it's a key third down play, and he finds a way to beat the coverage, and sit down where his QB can hit him with that chain moving toss. The rest of our receivers are pretty much all over the place in talent. None of them quite measuring up to these two guys in their specific roles on the team. But, despite that, this mix of talent is what makes the Packers so darned dangerous. I realize Love has quite a few INTs, but I rank INTs in two categories. Those that are on the QB, and those that are on the receivers, through their error. I think it's about 50/50 with Love. Think about the tipped passes that have ended up as INTs. Some of those are when the receiver didn't make the catch but should have, and there are those where the ball was thrown so badly that the tip happened because the receiver couldn't corral the ball. In other words, Love isn't afraid to throw the ball into traffic, because he trusts himself and his receivers. Sometimes bad, but more than not, it's good. They make the plays. Love is still a beginner at QB. He'll get better as he goes along. So will all those receivers. In all honestly, I don't think anyone out there has a better combination of QBs, RBs, TEs, and WRs in the game. Think about that for a moment. We have a huge depth factor in our skills positions on offense. That is key to moving forward. [/QUOTE]
