Last time i checked his stats were comparable to almost every receive on our roster.
It's not like we can use his speed anyways, we have a QB with no deep ball accuracy.
Like I said, good luck Troy, I hope you set the league on fire in Jville and make the front office look foolish and expose the real issue with the Vikes.

Really?
Maybe you should take another look.

Incomplete Pass Information

Player	Targets	Drops	% Dropped	% Caught	%First down
Wade	83	4	4.8%	65.1	39.8
Ferguson	62	3	4.8%	51.6	30.6
Rice	53	2	3.8%	58.5	47.2
Williamson	38	4	10.5%	47.4	23.7
Allison	18	1	5.5%	44.4	27.8

TWill drops passes at 2 to 3 times the rate that all of our other WRs do.
He was inactive on the sideline because he can't get the job done.

Ur skewing the data. At the end of the year, he was tied for drops. Was he not.?

LMFAO. How am I skewing the data.
Yes, he was tied for drops.
He was tied with Wade, who was thrown to 83 times, while TWill was thrown to 38 times.
That means that Wade dropped about 1 out of every 20 passes, while TWill dropped about 1 out of every 10 passes.

How can you not see that?

You are talking about % of drops, I'm talking about drops total. I don't care how often you are trageted, if you drop the ball you drop the ball. Let me add my 2 cents. It's easier for a WR that doesn't get the ball thrown his war often to choke and drop the ball, than for for a WR that is constantly targeted. With multiple looks you get into a zone and your comfort level increases. However, when you're targeted as rarely as Twill was, it a more difficult catch. Did I add the guy was dealing with a death in the family this season

lol. any other blogger i'd say would be joking, but it's funnier that it's kevon. B/c you know he's serious.

Clears up confusion with regard to the identity of the top T Will crotch sniffer around these parts.

Calling everyone out as idiots is a good way to display obvious superiority of intellect and tact. Very persuasive manuever!

Why didn't Allison have as high of a drop rate then?

<sigh>

Now you are just making excuses for him.

Ok, so a guy who gets thrown to 4 times and drops 4 times is the same as Wade who got 83 looks and only dropped 4, b/c percentage means nothing, right? Percentage is the real stat there. It shows the competency of the receiver's skills. Btw, your logic is false about the looks and the zone, b/c I believe TO led the year in drops 2006-07 year (TWill 2nd) and he's been thrown to plenty. I don't know who led in 07-08. Probably an Atlanta Falcon. Couple that with the denver drops. His big one looked exactly like his TD drop against Wash on MNF 2 years ago. His adjustments have never improved. And the one where it hit him in the chest, is exactly like every short route drop he's committed in 3 years. He doesn't have the fundamentals, he can't catch, and all this arguments coming from a guy WHO OWNS AND STILL WEARS HIS JERSEY so do NOT accuse me of biasness. I like TWill, but I love the vikings and what's best for both, especially the vikings, is to try to get SOMETHING out of him , b/c we aren't getting anything on the field.

The first thread is all from the immediate days after the Denver game.
Then it died off until Dropper bumped it yesterday.

The most recent post in the second one is from November 10, 2006.

And neither one of them said anything about Twill costing us the playoffs.
Keep looking.

Nodak, while I see your point... I think the fact is he was hurting the team more than helping it.

I agree with you C Mac.
I asked kevon to show me any links where people were saying the TWill cost us the playoffs.
THis was all he came up with.

TWill definately was not an asset to the team.
But nobody that I know us is making him the scapegoat for anything.

Did you even read the threads. Face it the guy has been casted as the Villian the whole season. Yes he drops the ball. However,
if you had asked anyone on this bord to guess the amount of drops he had this season, people would have assumed it was in the 8 range. Read the thread my friend. In fact, don't read the thread, read this thread for all the blame the guy gets.

Thank God, b/c that would mean he would have dropped 20% of his passes and in the NFL that is god awful.

And Marr, xBradcorex (my evil alter ego) is not showing his face on this issue..... yet. I, as Braddock, just get tired of ignorance. Now as soon as he starts ripping TJack, it's on.

He's been painted as a villian and rightfully so.

He's had problems with drops yes. That's not the principle issue though, IMO, it's the TIMING of the drops that is the problem.

I can remember at least 3 or 4 easy balls that he dropped at CRUCIAL times over the past year or two. The drop in the Washington game comes to mind when he had 10 yards on the defense and the ball hit him in the chest. What's that? It's our playoff birth falling to the ground.

It's been horrible. He's cost us games and is certainly not worth his 7 years 49 million dollars. I'm glad he's going.

Since he dropped 10% of his passes, he probably would have had 8 drops if he was thrown to as much as Wade.
