Interesting stat about Robert Meachem... (1 Viewer)

If Henderson is still under contract, I'd say we should try to trade him. Let's not forget, we also have AA waiting in the wings and he's done pretty well too.

Meach is definately a beast, he just has to be given a chance to show so.
Same for Lance!

Meachem is decent.. I noticed him catching the ball and running backwards a lot this year though.

When opposing defenses don't have to respect the run it limits what receivers can do after the catch. I think all of the receivers' YAC was down this year.

Colston/Meachem/Moore is just a sick 1/2/3 going into '11.

I agree its going to be a heck of a combo going into next year and don't forget Adrian Arrington either he could become a good #4 going into next year as well

Get him the dang ball, coach!

90% of those were first downs. Some were third and long conversions. I'll take that over a dropped pass to Henderson.

I'll man-up and apologize for repeating the incorrect nickname "Droppert Meachem (without looking into the real stats).

I think it was because he was trying to make a big play. He's got the size and open field speed and he was tryin to get some separation that would allow him to use them. But he'll get an an earful if he loses a 1st down in the process.

Going into his 5th year, he still has upside. Injuries have slowed his development, but he has the best combo of size, speed, hands and blocking on the team. I think he now needs focus on the little things and use them, not just his speed, to get open.

Cowboys might. They still vividly remember the game Henderson had vs. them in '06.

Seems like meach hasn't been as fast since his toe injury..I bet he'll excel next year

 

[Bayouman007]

w/e he looked like crap returning those kicks, I hope it was that damn toe. I realise he is a Saint so therefore I must love him, but he left alot to be desired in 2010.

Now that i think about it, he really does have good hands. He's just not smooth like Colston is catching the ball. When Colston catches a pass, it looks like the ball is hitting a pillow.
