Crowder when targets are up

As you pointed out Crowder's production wasn't consistent.  Interestingly Jets fans were in a panic when Robbie looked like a top NFL reciever after half a season only to fall off a cliff and revert back to the norm.

The NFL is a game of adjustments and attrition.  Crowder's numbers were above the mean because of his high productivity at the begining of the season. It may wll be his tape created an adjustment by the opposition that brought him back to the mean.  It's also likely that there was an element of attrition, Crowder may well have been banged up and less productive which also might have something to do with both his targets and productivity.

Crowder is what he is.  He's a good not great WR.  On the Jets the last few years being good not great put him in rarified air.  It's likely on a better team with more options he will be targeted less.  It also might mean teams will adjust by leaving him open more and he also may be healthier?  

There is simply no argument that he should be our go to WR unless our WR corp sucks or is on the shelf with injuries. 

But we have a very good reason why.  Film shows he was still getting open but the targets weren't there.  I'm not gonna' put that on Crowder. 

Now, if he's getting blanketed for weeks at a time and can't get any separation, that's a different story but hasn't been the case.
