Why Metcalf is special
CP: Without looking it up, which one of these guys is Metcalf?
TGT Rec Yds TD Cth% Y/Tgt
390 226 4163 43 57.9 10.7
358 216 3170 29 60.3 8.9
265 162 2553 26 61.1 9.6
380 193 3071 21 68.2 8.1
AE: Third one down I believe. No, it’s 2nd. He had 29 TDs, I remember when comparing him to Lockett
CP: Metcalf is going to be the new face of the Seattle Seahawks franchise until the team gets its next franchise QB. He is an attention-getting player and I don’t mean that as in any diva sort of way. He raced Olympic qualifying athletes and considering the fact he’s not training for the Olympics did quite well. In fact, it would be awesome if more of the NFL’s fastest competed.
Yes, he’s second on the list. These are the stat lines of each player’s first 3 NFL seasons. In order from top to bottom, Randy Moss, the aforementioned Metcalf, Terrell Owens, and Calvin Johnson. I’m not saying he’s a Hall of Famer. However, Metcalf is on his way to being more than just an adequate player. This is why he’s so popular.
DK Metcalf wins OROY if he scores on this play.
He ran hard as hell, if he held the ball one more yard it would’ve been a crazy highlight pic.twitter.com/CZEhM07pfj
