Maybe. But if he continues to drop simple balls in the endzone then the neagtive comments will always be there. Like ... Shaq was a great center but still criticized for not being to hit free throws. It's a receiver's job to catch. When he fails to make simple catches he'll justly earn some criticism.
I'm happy he had a good game yesterday. I'm certainly rooting for him to keep it up.

Shaq was the best C to ever play the game so I don't really see the comparison...it was not his job to hit FT's, that's the only thing people could nit pick about his game....so if your comparing VD to Shaq, I'll take it.
Also I came up with last year VD had 4 drops in however many catches he had which ended up equating to 4%...not to shabby.
Ill continue to search this years.

That's debatable. Myself, I would take Kareem Abdul-Jabbar any day of the week and twice whenever I could.

Yet another bobble on a perfectly throw pass that might have cost us an eventual TD. Time after time after time. This guy just can't catch!

Dude... it's always Alex's fault, you should know better. After the game, there will still be people saying Alex sucks and minimize the impact of a drop like that. But really, VD has single-handedly (and bodily) changed the course of many games, on offense. If that one is a touchdown, it changes the way we play the rest of the game. Damn, this is frustrating.

I still really like Vernon, but he has definitely shown us(on Q as he dropped that pass) that he isn't capable of being the center piece of an offense.

Did you write this ocmment before or after he dopped the second easy that kept us pinned deep in our own territory? Those two plays are the equivalnet of turnovers

That's what the on q was about.
I think it would be dumb to get rid of him, I think he can bounce back because this has undoubtedly been his worst season ever. Seems mental...
But yeah, we need to get more receiving options because they aren't cutting it right now.

Alex throws a perfect catchable ball every single time. Never misses receivers. I keep forgetting that. My bad man. My bad!

You know dude, the content of your post never seems to extend past an Alex Bash. It gets old fast.
I'm not a huge Alex fan, but the guy has been far from the worst player on offense, does he need to improve? Absolutely, is he the reason for us being completely inept on offense? No.
Statistics have shown that our receivers hands have been beyond terrible this year and our pass-protection has been sub-par at times.
Trying being objective for once, it's nice.
