Thanks so much for listening to this clip of Reception Perception, new episodes released Tuesdays and Thursdays. This is Reception Perception, the show now. James Cole and Matt Harmon. By the way, the other star of week 17, I guess, from a statistical standpoint. How about Malik Neighbors? Golly! I mean, eight targets in seven receptions resulting in 171 yards and two touchdowns. 171 on eight targets is the absolute inverse of what we were talking about there with Jerry and Judy. That's unbelievable efficiency. By the way, they go on to win that football game. 45, 33, much to the chagrin of Giants fans across the nation. But Malik Neighbors. I know it's general consensus that he's a great player. But again, Matt, using your eye to tell me, is Malik Neighbors as good as advertised? Or is this perceived value of Malik Neighbors? Is that being propped up by being on a really bad team? Look, again, I don't think me saying this takes anything away from Malik Neighbors. But, yeah, again, a couple of other guys on this team, and I don't think he has a 32.4% target share. I just don't think that's going to, which is what he has the highest target share of any player in the league at 32.4%. Wow. He started on 31% of his routes this year. Let's get an above average starter, and I don't necessarily think that that's going to be true, because, I mean, the other guys in this category are like A.J. Brown, Pookanaku, Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase. I mean, even Jamar Chase, like 26%, you know, like Jamar Chase is Jamar Chase. And because Jamar Chase has T Higgins, you know, so the guys really in his category are like A.J. Brown. And like, that's it. In terms of 30% target share players. I don't necessarily think Malik Neighbors right now is A.J. Brown. I think he could, I think he could develop into being an elite player. He's definitely somebody that could make that leap right now. I don't think he's there. But, yeah, he's a fantastic wide out. Like I said, I don't think me saying that takes anything away from him, especially. He was so awesome in this week 17 game, particularly in the ways that I've talked about him being awesome, which is against press man coverage. That's always been the strength of his game. It was a prospect. It has been as a rookie so far. He averaged, wait for James, 10.83 yards per route run against man coverage against the Colts. Gus Bradley, did he, does he know who all neighbors is? Did you watch any, any giants film whatsoever? There's one guy that you got to worry about if you're the Colts defense. He wears number one. He's the one guy. It's so obvious. Freaking Jersey number is number one. And they couldn't, what are, what were they doing? They lined him up on several key receptions. They had two catches for 65 yards against man coverage with a touchdown in there. And it was just ISO ball, two Malik neighbors on go routes. Bro, what are we talking about from the Colts defense, and it makes it even worse, James, that not, okay, well, you didn't get into shit to like solo shutdown Malik neighbors. Well, one day Robinson is still catching like out breaking routes on you down the field. One day Robinson, one day Robinson sketch, like down, good out breaking routes on you. My slate is just walks into the end zone on a 32 yarder. The other guys who aren't even really needle moving players, they're just guys, they're, they're dropping bombs on you. And Malik neighbors is dropping bombs on you. Like what an embarrassing defensive performance that was bad spread in the Colts. That was bad. What's better than watching your team win, winning money while you do it. I'm Jim Costa and I cash the ticket Mike, Valetty and I give you the edge to make every game playable.
