I know you make statements like these just to annoy people, but I'm gonna bite anyway.
I get so frustrated with this obsession with rookie year success. There's this modern idea that rookies have to come out and dominate and tear the game apart, and if they don't then they're busts. I find its worse for WRs. If you don't come out and do what Keenan Allen or OBJ did then you're a bust. I hate it. This might shock you, but it's okay to develop through practice.
We should be glad we have the depth to be able to plug John Ross in when we want to, not because we're forced to.
John has a role to play over the next 10 years for this franchise, 2 weeks doesn't matter.
