I never thought Jonnu was a special player, and I know this is not a popular opinion. Moreover, because of offensive game theory I still believe Firkser easily replaces Jonnu in this offense. Jonnu definitely isn't a special player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bongo59 Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 His talent is great but his performance never matched his talent. I think this is why they let him go. I guess we'll all see how good he is NE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OILERMAN Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 The Titans seriously considered franchising Jonnu from all reports and BB paid him huge money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Firkser gets way too much love around here. I can only think of the Pats playoff game where he was used on a HAD TO HAVE IT play. I’m sure there are some other plays that don’t spring to mind. I think you may be combining the other white WR who we did go to A LOT on HAD TO HAVE plays and that was Humphreys.

He made a huge catch against the Lions on a 3rd and long in the second half when had they not converted Detroit would've gotten the ball with a chance to take the lead. The game got out of hand late but was a 1 score game in the 3rd. That, to me, was the biggest play of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't get a lot of visibility because he's not featured in the red zone. I think that changes this year. I see him around 650 yds, 8 TD this year and a ton of catches being clutch. He's basically been the money 1st down check down since we don't have a reliable backfield target in passing for those situations. He really increased in that role when Humphries went down.
