Kemp wows people with his size and straight line speed, but in reality he’s very similar to Chris Conley. Guys who are stiff and can’t move extremely well laterally are just not as valuable. Brady always, and I mean ALWAYS, feeds off of the quick out, quick slant, quick inside hook routes. It isn’t just Edelman either. Brandin Cooks did it, Chris Hogan did it, Phillip Dorset has done it. We have burners deep. Give me an intermediate weapon who has good lateral speed and route running ability over a stiff tall receiver.

Congrats. Again - 21 downed inside the 20 for Colquitt - that's not an insignificant number of punts downed. 5 of them went into the endzone and MAYBE a couple of those were Kemp's 'fault'. I recall two specifically where Colquitt just bombed the ****er and it landed in the end zone and I definitely recall 1 where I thought Kemp botched it. But you guys all sound like the "well if Alex Smith's WRs didn't drop the ball" guys or the "If the DBs didn't drop those interceptions from Mahomes..." guys. All QBs have drops by both their WRs and by the DBs. All gunners make mistakes - every damn one of them. Kemp has looked bad at times at gunner but that's just the nature of the beast out there. That job is FAR harder than it looks and nobody bats 1.000. Meanwhile the Chiefs downed nearly half of their punts inside the 20 and had a 4-1 rate vs. touchbacks. So this idea that Kemp just went out there stumble-****ing around every time he covered a punt is just asinine and not supported by any evidence at all. Y'all can think it all you want but it's base-level nonsense supported exclusively by immediate impressions that you refused to let go of.

Just because you only remember it happening once, doesn’t mean that it did. I know for a fact that it didn’t.
Every time I saw that guy have an opportunity, he ****ed up. It might not have been much, but this is the NFL and he’s a bubble guy. You have to make the most of those opportunities when you get them, especially if your value is supposedly on ST’s. |

And if you believe 'every time he had an opportunity, he ****ed up' then you're just pathologically full of shit. You're ignoring the numbers outright because you remember the couple of times he ****ed up. Good for you, champ. Dude played 16 games last year after working his way up from the practice squad and you're saying he "needs to make the most of his opportunities..." As though the guy was ever gifted a roster spot or managed to keep his role last year on sheer inertia. Yeah, I'm sure you're right - he screwed up every chance he got but was 3rd on the team in STs snap count because of draft status and the salary cap.

But the guys they have that could replace him are likely going to be less talented and probably worse, that's the argument here.
