He was receiving nearly 20% more targets in Arizona on a per game basis which was leading to higher raw production, but his overall efficiency was very similar. In the first five weeks this season, Brown was averaging 1.67 yards per route ran. Last season in Baltimore, he was averaging 1.61. Less than a 4% difference.

He was quite good and productive with Lamar, but wasn't receiving the volume he wanted, which is ultimately what came out as the reason for his wanting to leave. He wasn't happy with his role in the offense. Basically, I think it was more Greg Roman than Lamar, and that style of offense is why receivers don't want to go there. 

Before we go any further, are you from Kentucky? Do you like Louisville? Were you a Lamar fan when he was in college?
