C'mon, Flop.
How can you expect a guy that hasn't been consistent over the last 5 seasons to magically maintain that level of play here - as he's aging?
You know, if he had consistently put up 800+ yards over the past 5 years, I wouldn't have nearly the issue.
Problem is, he hasn't. He had an average year catching punts from Matt Cassel, people forget about his past, and now he's a legit WR2?
It doesn't work that way. Unless you're just going out of your way to be optimistic, I see no evidence to lead me to believe that Chambers will replicate his performance of 2009.

Look, I'm worried about the consistency issue too. But you're really selling him short by saying he had an "average" year. He was on pace to gain 1100 yards for a shitty offense with a QB who was playing like shit.
Chambers was doing a lot of stuff that Bowe should have been long. He was catching a lot of very poorly thrown balls, doing a great job jumping up to get underthrown balls, catching balls in the middle of the field as well as serve as a legit deep option. He wasn't just an average #2 WR in 2009 with the Chiefs. He was a middle-of-the-road #1 WR.
If Chambers continues to commit to the game, I'm not worried about him. Frankly, I'm a hell of a lot more worried about Bowe.
