Let him compete for the ball. I hope he does. My main issue with Kirk is his lack of trust unless it’s Adam. There will be times where Jet won’t beat his man but will be in position to make a 50/50 ball. Give the kid his chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikeManDan Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I think Kirk is getting better at trusting him each week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENINCH Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Diggs stats die off after week 5 or 6 of his rookie season. Jefferson will pass him easily. Well on his way to putting up the second best stats a rookie receiver has put up after being drafted by Minnesota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, but would be fun to see him eclipse a 1000 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jefferson currently has 348 yards on 16 receptions. Moss' 1313 yards - JJ's 348 yards = 965 yards 965 yards/12 games = 80.41 YPG 1000 - 348 = 652 yards 652/12 games = 54.33 YPG If he stays healthy I think it would be disappointing if he doesn't get at least 1,000 yards. Moss has all the rookie receiving records for the Vikings: 69 receptions, 1,313 yards, and 17 TDs. I think Jefferson will challenge for the first two. Moss' 69 receptions - JJ's 16 receptions = 53 receptions 53 receptions/12 games = 4.41 receptions/game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I would not be shocked to see Jefferson surpass Moss’ rookie reception and yards records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelKing728 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 No doubt he's improving. This is actually more impressive though. With our offense going through the run game, he needs to block well. That's something Diggs never cared to do I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember arguing on here how terrible w run blocker diggs had been and somebody pulled up pff stats proving he was ranked 4th in the league at run blocking at receiver lol. Diggs wound up improving drastically, but he wasn’t a good run blocker back when we had All Day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitehops Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 it's hard to complain when the offense has been playing the way it has the past couple games but i'd really like to see jefferson have another big game. his efficiency stats are still off the charts but he's only gotten more than 5 targets in two games this season - weeks 3 and 6 when he put up 175 and 166 yards, respectively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
