I think that alot of the "Drops" aren't counted in that DB because they (the creaters of the DB) felt that a ball that most fans think should be catchable wasn't.
If that makes sense.

Truth be told, he (BB) admitted he dropped alot of balls last year when he was interviewed on the Satty radio station "Moving the Chains" and that he believes he should take some of the "Bad" credit for Wrecky's problems last year.

Again, I can't tell but I think that it is a pretty good assumption that some of his drops were counted in that DB mostly to the fact that I aluded to (defenders hanging off of him).

Again, I hope that made sense.

That is just the sign of someone being a team player and being humble.
Something I actually like in a player...

I didn't watch every Chicago game the past couple of years, but I watched a lot of them. And BB never really came across as a guy who dropped balls.
Even if the database is skewed to only reflect "catchable" balls, then it is at least skewed uniformly across the WRs.
Berrian still had a better drop rate than any of the other WRs we had last year.
Better than most of the NFL for that matter too.

I'd agree with NOdakPaul here.
What kind of guy would he be if he said: "Nah, its not my fault, its Rex's fault.
IF he could get hte ball where it needs to be i'd have no problem catching everything"
He's just being a good teammate and helping out a clearly inferior player.
