Uhhh, Puka Nacua?

Nacua is 100% better rn, but I do think Rice has more upside. We’ll see if Rice’s physical gifts translate into that high level of production when he’s more involved, I think they will though.

Zay Flowers, Jordan Addison....both look pretty good right now too.

All 4 are pretty different though.

The part about Rice’s route adjustment is bonerific.

I would think Rice is less likely to hit the rookie wall later in the season since he hasn't been playing a ton of snaps so far. So he'll be more developed AND fresher come playoff time.

So that he doesn't get tackled.

Oh, you’re makin me whoreknee baybee!

So we now have the same receiver room we had last season, except Hardman is healthy and we replaced a slow ass JuJu with Rice. Im wit it.

Excellent

I have a feeling Nacua is going to be good for a long while. His route running is lean; doesn't waste any motion or steps. Some of his breaks at the top of his routes are unorthodox, but it's been working so far. Plus, he's a big body, able to be effective underneath in traffic and has enough athleticism/large enough catch radius to make contested catches on the boundaries. If he was faster, he'd be really scary. Cooper Kupp kind of stuff.

Nagy needs to get on the stump for Rice and make sure he gets more playing time.

People need to bash Reid and Nagy in every post game interview if Rice doesn't start getting significantly more playing time, and especially taking snaps away from MVS and Moore.

If Rice doesn't play more, they absolutely need to explain why.

Let's fly a banner!!!!!!

Force fed in a system....not impressed

Maybe. It's true they've been targeting the crap out of him. But he catches the ball. And he runs timing routes/routes over the middle pretty well from the clips I've seen. Kurt Warner likes him a lot.

But we'll see who he is by the end of next season, probably.
