He's probably missing NO..guessing when he goes elsewhere next year he will be a 1000 yard guy again.

His last year here was better than his last year in NO. I was under the impression he liked flying to work everyday. Could be wrong though.

Not a good day but yes let's run him out of town for one sub par day. Sigh. Gotta love kneejerkfans.

X sucked today. You can say that about pretty much every single player on the offense.

Jimmy who?
Oh yeah, that big guy we brought in to catch touchdowns...the one our OC never uses.

Was a bad day for Jimmy, sure. But it has happened before. The mugging in the end zone I don't put on him. He's probably used to not getting a lot of PI calls. But he had a couple of drops that I would call unlike him.

I suspect he'll bounce back. I just hope he doesn't have another bad day in a really important game. And sorry, but one game on the road is not the end of the world.

he did look like he was going thru the motions today. I will say they need to trade him. not because of this bad game but because they clearly need oline play more than him. if you cant have time to throw him the ball or get into scoring positions to use his skill set than why even have him anyway. no good having a Ferrari if you cant drive it.

Yes body language says it all. Looks like he wants out of seattle.

I think anyone would if they didnt get the ball. I dont think he isnt part of the game plan but rather.......


from the movie Wildcats....

The QB who was played by the guy who played Bubba in Forest Gump said...... " I couldnt see him from underneath the pile I was under"

How can RW see or reach ANY receivers? EVEN ones the size of Graham!!

I disagree. Qb has no time to reach him. How many TDs did Baldwin, P-Rich or any of them have? Its the O-Line. Schneider made a terriible trade.

Green Bay switched it's defense to the "nitro" package this year. They ran it a lot yesterday.. They replaced a ILB with Safety Morgan Burnett, who is excellent at covering TE's. Gone are the days of fast tight ends having field days against the likes of cement footed AJ Hawk...

I really hate to say this about Graham....but I felt this way when he was with NO and he hasn't changed my mind..... When the games are at their biggest, he shrinks......

Im sure he'll got for 100 and a TD or two this week vs SF.....

I was pretty disappointed in Grahams effort. He is payed way too much to tap out because he was asked to block.

This was early in the game....ridiculous!

He dropped one pass... Have you guys ever tried playing sports at a high level? obviously not.

Here's the greatest receiver of all time.

The whole offense looked terrible and you want to blame a guy who had one drop?

He didn't asked to be traded to an offense who couldn't protect the QB and throw the ball... had he still been in NO he'd be catching 70 passes a year for 1200 yards and 12 TDs still.

Remember this? Same player.

If you want to hold someone accountable... hold Pete for his blind spot (OLINE), hold JS for his blind spot (OLINE), hold Cable, hold Pete for how he doesn't hold Cable accountable...

He also caught a TD versus the Seahawks in Seattle during a playoff divisional game.

Graham is a monster... if you have any issues with his output, then hold the coaches accountable because we know what Jimmy Graham we got when we traded for him. (TOP 10 WR in the league)....not top 10 blocking TE.

There is no doubt Jimmy has not lived up to the hype. When he came here, he was a top 10 non-QB offensive player. I don't even think he is top 40 now. It's hard to tell if Jimmy has lost a step or he simply thrived in the Saints offense. I think we move on from him soon.

Randy Moss had a combined 1500 yards and 11 TDs in 2 seasons with the Raiders. Most people thought he had lost a step, but he was just in an inept offense..

The following year he had 1500 yards and 23 TDs with the Patriots.

I can promise you that if Graham returned to the Saints, or went to a top offense like the Falcons, Saints, Pats, or Packers, he'd return to 10+ TDs without issue.

I remember his first game as a Seahawk he ran a speed out for a TD vs the Rams.. i thought we were going to see a lot more of those WR concept routes... unfortunately we don't.

His heel caught Joekels leg and he went down.
