For pointing out the obvious to everyone in the entire NFL world except Seahawk fans? Was Metcalf or Lockett second team all pro last year?
Being right doesn't mean you're going to win the forum discussion point.

You are entilited to have your opinion that nobody agrees with except seahawks fans
94….we need to distinguish between TEAM and individual stats.

Look at where the Niners are as a team passing/scoring wise. Then compare that to the Seahawks.

I don’t know if that means Aiyuk would have the same stats in the Seahawks offense or Metcalf would have the same stats in the Niners offense…but the scales are definitely tipped in Aiyuk’s favor.

I don’t think DK has as good of hands as Aiyuk but in most other categories, I’d take DK over Aiyuk.

I do respect your opinion though…and can see legitimacy in your points.

A lot of people consider LeBron the b-ball GOAT. Legit argument. He’s not in my top 3. MJ-Kobe-Bird-Bron.

Where am I’m going with this…oh yah, we’re all allowed to have our opinions and probably waste too much time debating that which cannot legitimately be compared.🤗.

I don't think anyone can say the only people that attest DK Metcalf to be a better receiver than Aiyuk are Seahawks fans. That's simply a way to DQ the argument on a Seahawks page. ChatGPT hedged a couple times but when pinned down (asked a 3rd time to decide):


DK Metcalf is generally considered the better wide receiver between him and Brandon Aiyuk. Here are some reasons why:

  1. Physical Dominance: Metcalf possesses exceptional size (6'4", 235 lbs), speed, and strength, which make him a formidable matchup for any defender. His physical attributes allow him to excel in contested catch situations and as a deep threat.
  2. Production: Metcalf has consistently put up impressive numbers since entering the league, demonstrating his ability to produce at a high level. He has been a key target for the Seattle Seahawks, amassing significant yardage and touchdown receptions.
  3. Skill Set: His ability to win jump balls, create separation with his speed, and make big plays down the field are highly valued in today's NFL. Metcalf's combination of athleticism and skill makes him a dynamic threat in the passing game.
While Brandon Aiyuk has shown promise and has his own set of skills and strengths, DK Metcalf's physical prowess and production give him the edge in being considered the better wide receiver at this point in their respective careers.
So you are going to trust Chat GPT rather than ESPN, Pro football focus, CBS, and the associated press. Not to mention the top 100 in the NFL (voted on by the players) which I will GUARANTEE will have Aiyuk rated higher than Metcalf this year. (yet to be broadcast) Aiyuk is just beginning to break out and last year was consensus ranked better than Metcalf

You talk about the team stats, but check the target stats. DK leads in targets

He is also a way better route runner than DK

Spent the last two weeks in jail and am catching up on news. Apparently I missed a few things on the political scale... Trump has some problem with his ear, Biden dropped something, anyway, I'm onto NFL stuff right now. Aiyuk is phenomenal, but you'd think eventually that team would have to not pay somebody. Wouldn't be an awful choice for the Niners to move him IMO. They're still great without him.

I'm scared to look up celebrity deaths. Jimmy Carter and Dick Van Dyke are still good, right?
I think they will move Deebo next offseason

Say you could have either for the same salary. Would you rather have him or DK?
On the 49ers... Aiyuk . I think you need a deep ball / big armed passer to access Dks skill set. Not exactly Purdy

Ranking players is like sitting at the mall trying to say who as hotter as the Girls walk by. The end of their career the numbers will be posted and they will be judged on whether they make the Hall.

Until then, depends on the team they play for, is it run heavy or pass heavy, does the QB that throws to them look for them first or does he just use progression? Does the QB trust them? Can the player rise above the things restricting his ability to make plays with making the most of his chances of touching the ball? Does the team have a QB that can deliver the ball deep and or on time in tight windows?

Lots goes into what makes someone a success.

Also, Dick Van Dyke still alive = 👍

Jimmy Carter still alive (for now) = 👍

Seeing the news on Bob Newhart and Richard Simmons = 😞

A)I didn't say one was better than the other and I'm not trusting anyone or anything. I'm merely pointing out your error in professing that only Seahawks fans believe Metcalf>Aiyuk. Lots of others feel that way including (arguably) the most unbiased judgement of all. ...and it's ok that you disagree. I'm not trying to convince you.

B)The media is incorrect a lot. The media's top priority is not to be accurate, it's to sell ads. I wonder if we could find a thread someone on this site where someone disagrees with the media...??? I wonder if we could find a situation where the media consensus was wrong? If we take them as universally true, KC gets the trophy this year and we can all pack it up. But... (according to Google) only 6 time has the pre-season #1 won the Lombardi. They're just wrong a lot. That's my point. ...and it's ok if you think they're right. I'm not trying to convince you.

C)As you guarantee that the top 100 will have Aiyuk ranked higher than Metcalf, I will guarantee that not every player/voter in the NFL will rank Aiyuk higher than Metcalf. I won't, however, write it in all caps.

Your boys would be champs if he knew how to throw the long ball. Missed several times in the SB. And it was glorious.
What are spouting off about? Did you even watch the game or were you watching the Taylor Swift highlights and the Usher half time? Show me a deep pass he missed that wasn't spectacular coverage by McDuffie and the Chiefs All Pro secondary. The fumble by McCaffery in the redzone, fumble by our punt returner in our red zone , torn achilles, missed extra point and Patrick Mahomes had nothing to do with it. It wasn't like Jimmy in 2019

Forgive me. Artificial intelligence and Seahawk fans (questionable intelligence :p).

He missed what should have been a couple sure TD's. Yes I watched it. Your team choked. Yet again.

I'm trying to understand all the frustration and trolling from this 94smith character. Do you think it's because 94 is their birth year so they don't have any personal memory of their favorite team lifting the Lombardi.
Maybe it's because like BA they know the window is closed and they want out.

It's a waste of time going back and forth about something everyone knows. Aiyuk is OVERRATED. The guy doesn't get double teamed as much as DK if at all and is a product of the system there. Teams don't fear him or game plan to stop him like they di DK.

I wish I was born in 94. 1977.
