He has really won me over... I'll take my serving of crow... medium rare.

I would also say he has done better blocking than i expected, but the idea he was going to really stretch the field that many felt he would has not materialized which is what i did not think would happen... but he really showed good hands and was a good safety outlets... I am hoping he can be effective more in playoffs especially in middle of field this is where CJ really shined last year for us.. 13 catches and a TD in first two games before getting hurt in KC game playoff game was very important for us
