Seriously. That’s his career game.

Winner.

Yep, that's my answer.

Robinson did do his part yesterday. He got himself open, but most of that yardage was on Mahomes. That's not a slam on Robinson at all. There just aren't many QBs who would even attempt most of those throws, much less get them there on target. Put another QB behind center yesterday, even a good one, and we're probably talking 3 catches for 40 or 50 yards. Of if he still ends up with 6, maybe 70-80 yards. Not bad, but nothing to really bat an eye at.

I think the odds are that somebody is going to do this almost every week, and it might not be the same guy very often.

Hell, we should've had 3 guys over 100 yards. Because Hardman went off, too. That long catch that Shady held on is a big deal too, I think. It's on tape now, and that's one more guy teams clearly have to worry about. And in fact, although I don't watch all-22 or anything, it looked to me watching the game like the reason Robinson kept getting 1-on-1 coverage is because the safeties kept sliding over to help bracket Hardman. And he was able to get behind them anyway.

Exactly what I saw

Second to none? You can’t seriously think he’s a better route runner than Watkins. He’s faster, but Watkins is one of the best if not the best route runners in the league. not saying Hill is bad, just stating the obvious that Watkins is better in that aspect.

With Mahomes he is a 70/1000 guy.

Anyone else he is a 40/500 guy

He can be high end #2 receiver in this system. Wouldn’t be surprised if we let Watkins go because of him.

100%

He can be the Alvin Harper to Reek's Mike Irvin, especially with Mecole developing.

We'll need to do something at TE though - Kelce's getting long in the tooth.

Joe Horn maybe? He wasn't that good his first couple of years here, but his last year he was coming on. I was upset when the Chiefs let him walk just when he was finally looking like a good receiver. I wasn't surprised to see him do well in Nawlins. But, I never imagined that he would have a HOF worthy career.

I don't know that Demarcus has the tools to be that kind of a player. Thought there were rumors that he sometimes gets lost about where to be and running his routes. Maybe that's coached out of him. But it seems to me that this offense has made it possible for him to do simple things extremely well. And it's an offense that rewards great improv which is his strong suit.

Jesus the Jets are cursed.

The ceiling is yesterday. He touched the top. That will be his career best game.

His ceiling is what JakeF allows.

I've always been high on Robinson. Always liked what he's brought, and he's shown some impressive ability at times. That said, Mahomes can turn chickenshit into reheated Jerry Rice....

A 1st & DRob should get Ramsey.
