Who would you rather have for all 16 games?

That's like asking who would you rather have as your QB this season: Aaron Rodgers or Blake Bortles.

I can find small stretches of games to project Bortles to appear to much greater than he is too. 

The fact is John Ross did the bulk of his damage in only 2 games.  Over 50% of his yards, and ALL of his TD's came in weeks 1 and 2.  Then for the rest of the season he didn't do all that much.

The guy played in 13 games in '18 and produced a whopping 210 yards.

This isn't even a contest.  Until John Ross can actually prove he's elite you can't out him against a guy like AJ Green.  It's not even close.

Even Week 2 he had only 3/46/0 through the first 59 minutes of the game. 

The final stat line only looks good because the 49ers put in all their backups while up by 31 points and Ross got a long ultra-garbage-time TD against bench players with less than a minute to go.

He was great Week 1, but that's literally the only game he's been great (or even very good) in 3 years.

The other 6 games of 2019 he averaged 3/39/0 per game... which is almost dead on what he had in Week 2 against actual starting players.
