If Greg Lewis is quality depth, then who isn't quality depth? Considering Greg Lewis is the worst receiver currently on this roster.

Your ignorance never ceases to amaze me.

Explain. Because he is the worst, unless you can come up with a better name.

What do you know about Buckhalter that we do not. I recall most people figuring he was done the first time he blew out his knee. Which was not quite right.

I stopped reading your drivel after this. The last time everyone counted him out he blew out his other knee. So actually, everyone was right. Stop embarrassing yourself.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

You call Lewis the worst WR on the roster and I need to explain?  Please.

Brown better obviously. Pinkston, and Gaffney are both obviously better. Avant hasn't proven he is better, but it's safe to assume he won't be a Hoyda and he'll actually catch the ball unlike Lewis. Mccants is a better than Lewis as well. Bloom I don't count as a receiver because he'll make the team as a PR regardless if he sucks at receiver or not. I'm not including Baskett, because no one knows anything about him.

Did you see Lewis last year? He's a Hoyda. He won't fight for the ball, and when the ball does hit him in the gloves he drops it. He was a walk-on in college and an undrafted free agent. He stinks. The entire hype around him is because of his 2 playoff catches in 2004 when TO was out. Big farging deal, he hasn't done anything for this team. Mccants will do a lot more with playing time than Lewis has ever done. Mccants has actually caught some balls when he's been on the field.

When he gets the system down and if he gets some playing time he'll make a lot more plays than Lewis will.

How the hell is Pinkston better when we don't know if he can play again?

The man. The myth. The legend.

Yawn.

Brown and Gaffney?  Sure.  No argument from me... but that's where it ends.  With Pinkston hurting, Lewis is easily the 3rd best WR on this team (which is scary)... and even with a healthy Pinkston, it's debatable.

QuoteAvant hasn't proven he is better, but it's safe to assume he won't be a Hoyda and he'll actually catch the ball unlike Lewis.

So Avant hasn't proven to be better, but your reasoning is that it's "safe to assume"??  Rock solid logic right there.

QuoteMccants is a better than Lewis as well.

Based on his 5 catches for 87 yards last year, being cut and re-signed 15 times and his dreamy male model pics? 

QuoteBloom I don't count as a receiver because he'll make the team as a PR regardless if he sucks at receiver or not. I'm not including Baskett, because no one knows anything about him.

So you realized that you couldn't even make an argument for either of these guys without sounding even dumber than you already have so you decided "not to include" them.  Right.

QuoteHe's a Hoyda. He won't fight for the ball...

Look... I saw the play against the Seahawks too.  But you know as well as I do that this is the only play you're basing this generic statement on.


Through the rest of your little rant... I kept looking for a single fact, but couldn't find one... only your misinformed opinions.  You don't like him, and that's fine... but it doesn't give you the right to say dumb shtein.


Lewis was in a bad spot last year.  He was supposed to be the #3 guy going into the season and because of injuries/complete jackassiveness... he ended up the #1 guy, which everyone and their momma knew was too much for him.  Apparently, everyone but you.  When he's put in a position of depth where he should be... he can come in and work the defenses LB's/nickel DB effectively instead of matching up against the #1 CB.

Avant has a lot more upside, and so does Mccants. If you want to make the argument that we don't have enough on them with the Eagles to judge whether or not they are better, then fine. You can't say they are worse though for the same reason.

Pinkston better than Greg Lewis can't be debated. Pinkston at least was able to hold up in a starters role. Something Greg Lewis proved he can't do.

How does McCants have more upside when he's done less than Lewis despite being in the league 2 more years?  :sly


I'm making the argument that they aren't better based on the fact they haven't done shtein in the NFL at this point.  I'm making the argument based on the fact that Lewis knows this offense more about this offense and more chemistry with McNabb than Gaffney, McCants, Avant, Baskett and Bloom combined.

Until they prove they are better... they are worse.  Upside doesn't make you a better player until you realize that potential.

Mccants hasn't had the opportunity. I'm not saying he's TO, but I'm pretty confident in saying he's better than Greg Lewis. Just watching him on the field with the Skins and the Eagles, I see a better player than Lewis. It's a shame Greg Lewis is going to make the team, you're right.

Not because of his skills, but because of the extension he signed a couple years ago. IMO that's the only thing keeping him on this team. I don't care how well he knows the offense. He's not a good player. He isn't terrible, but he isn't good. He wasn't even all that special when he was the 3rd guy either.

Then, he's not the worst on this Eagles team.  The WR's are zesty enough that a couple of them have to be terrible.

ice grillin you

their wr's are horrible...cant we at least all agree on that...the rest is all semantics

So in other words, your whole argument is that McCants, Avant and Bloom are better than Lewis, not because of what they've done on the field, but because you're "confident in saying" and that "it's safe to assume".


Now do you see where I'm coming from when I say that you're ignorance never ceases to amaze me?

McCants, Greg Lewis, Pinkston......ugggh....just the right ingredients for a wonderful $htein sandwhich.

How anyone can even argue that McCants is better than anyone is astonishing.
