People just don't like him. I don't know if that RRR rap turned everyone against him or what but people just seem convinced they should get better production from him when he is an undrafted FA, a #3, and has consistently delivered.
I think people get upset because they feel like he gets too many targets vs guys we want the ball thrown to. But Kearse is one of our best guys at going up for the ball contested, so Wilson trusts him more.
I don't see how getting rid of one of Wilson's bailout guys makes us better but.....some people really thing that getting rid of our #3 receiver who is also our most productive guy in the playoffs is going to be the key to getting us over the hump.
I hope they are right but I would be really happy to find a way to keep Kearse.*
(* We seem to either really undervalue our guys, or we have a need to take the position so that if we lose someone we are not as upset, like in the Golden Tate instance. There is no way that losing guys like Kearse or Irvin makes us better though. We can only hope that the team improves in other areas.)
The NFC championship game (everything before the game winning catch) against the packers is what soured fans to to Kearse.
