I bet slow start but is putting up wr1 level stats by eos1HurricaneZion• 1 mo ago
Over the 13 games since Rice started getting consistently around 70%+ snaps he has had TOP FIVE WR production avging 7 catches & 82 YPG (around 120/1,400 for a season) -
1) Vs Raiders (12th best pass defense) he had 8 catches/107 yards/1 TD
2) Vs GB (9th best) - 8/64
3) Vs Bills (7th) - 7/72/1
4) Vs Patriots (11th) - 9/91/1
5) Vs Raiders (12th) - 6/57
6) Vs Bengals (28th) - 5/27
7) Vs Dolphins (15th) - 8/130/1 (playoff game)
8) Vs Bills (7th) - 4/48 (playoff game)
9) Vs Ravens (6th) - 8/46 (playoff game)
10) Vs Niners (14th) - 6/39 (playoff game)
11) Vs Ravens (31st) - 7/103
12) Vs Bengals (21st) - 5/75/1
13) Vs Falcons (22nd) - 12/110/1
NINE of the 13 games were against top 15 ranked pass defenses.... yet he's avgd top 5 WR production over that stretch
Then his advanced stats since hes stepped onto a NFL football field do nothing but back it up more. Which is why he magically has exploded since his snaps went up.1HurricaneZion• 1 mo ago
Tried telling folks 🤷🏼♂️
And tougher target comp? Really not as bad as many make it seem. We saw how having Worthy clear out defenses HELPED Rice in wks 1-3 (was WR2 overall behind only Chase).
Worthy will be playing THAT role w/Rice back.... when he started looking consistently better at the end of the last season it's bc they had Hopkins plus Brown came back & Reid moved Worthy to the Rice role (his ADOT plummeted). He won't get that w/Rice back (plus Royals getting that role when Rice is off the field).
Hollywood has been injury prone his entire career & is creeping up on 30 now .... he got hurt his FIRST catch of PRESEASON last year. Also when he came back he got 2 warm up games.... then when they needed plays he had a total of 5 catches on 13 targets for 50 yards in 3 playoff games.
And Reid has been wanting to lower Kelces snaps & usage since last offseason (which is why they brought in Brown & Worthy.... & now Royals also) to save him for playoffs. Injuries killed that plan last season & Kelce was done by the Conf Championship. Guess who thrives in the same areas of the field as Kelce 🤔. Lol not only does Rice do that but he also is elite at finding the soft spots in defenses when Pat manipulates them w/his legs.
Rices 1-2 game suspension won't be till '26 (hasn't even been indicted on charges yet) & his knee is fine (the fact his ACL/MCL/& PCL held up was HUGE).
Top 10 WR season incoming (& thats being conservative) 😉
