But that's the rub. Someone like Megatron you can shadow with Revis and double/triple cover if need be. With Harvin, you move him to slot, line him up in the backfield, have him return kicks, etc...
Harvin will always get his touches... |
But that's the point though. Harvin doesn't scare me when he gets the ball as a RB. I'm much more scared when I see AP lining up because he can go all the way at any given moment.
You can try and cover Megatron but he is still a mismatch for almost any CB in the league. He has the freakish size and speed combination. Everybody knows he will get the ball and he still catches TD after TD.
Megatron has the ability to make any QB look good. "Just throw the ball my way and I will catch it". |

If he doesnt scare you than you are really brave. He has averaged almost 7 ypc on 92 career runs.

So? How many handoffs has he taken all the way to the house? How many times does he run the ball per game? Not often.
So yes, I do fear AP a lot more lining up in the backfield than Harvin. AP can go all the way at any given moment. |

To be fair, so can Harvin. His burst is no worse, and he runs the ball like a RB.

My problem with calling Johnson is a "weapon" is that he is a receiver, to my knowledge he doesnt do much more. He does that spot REALLY well, but why use a different word? Is there really a difference to calling Johnson the best receiver compared to the best weapon?
But with Harvin, he isnt the best running back, he isnt the best wide receiver, and isnt the best returner. But he is too dangerous to call mediocre.
Its really just arguing over the definition though lol. Im pretty sure both sides agree where both stand, its just an argument over whether weapon is about versatility or just being the best offensive threat.

I think then maybe this thread should have been renamed "Percy Harvin is the biggest all-around/versatile offensive threat in the league", but that doesn't really roll off of the tongue.

He's a monster! Unstoppable today, and he didn't even get any chances on special teams.
