[QUOTE="gemoran4, post: 639169, member: 10047"] Disclaimer: I'm very late to this thread, and frankly I didn't read much of it so if I'm preaching to the choir I apologize. With that disclaimer in mind, I have to apologize to Richard Rodgers a little bit. I'll be honest, I haven't been a fan of a guy since we drafted him. He wasn't highly touted, and in my mind i thought he was at best semi-talented dude who was a project (as Cal seemingly made him transform his body for a completely different role every year) at the pro level. When I saw him as a rookie, he looked like nothing more than a slow TE with poor blocking skills and good hands. Coming off the athlete that was Jermichael Finley, I found myself quite frankly disappointed. Not once did I see anything worthwhile in him. This year came around, and while he showed improvement, but I still felt meh about him, especially given the woes we've had on offense. But hail mary aside, the dude showed up in a big way tonight and he frankly wowed me. The dude made some incredible catches, always found a way to get himself open, and really played a big role in jumpstarting our offense and getting back in this game when nobody else was capable of stepping up and making plays for us. I still am not 100% convinced, but he did a whole lot to change my mind about him in the Lions game. I felt like in a way this was a coming out party for the guy, and I hope he builds off of this game and becomes one of the staples of this offense. [/QUOTE]
