Keyshawn Johnson is an overrated Possesion reciever

[Thick dog]

I saw an interview with him the other day, where he states that he wants to be the team leader and main focal point of the team. I think tha the wants to be Michael Irvin so bad that he can't stand it, but he lacks Irvin's explosive burst(especially early in his career) that allows Irvin to stretch the filed and run after the catch. In 5 years, Keyshawn has posted only 2 1000 yd seasons, and has only had 2 plays of more than 50 yds. Granted, he hasn't had great QB play his whole careeer, but he is basically a high priced possession reciever, not a bigtime playmaker.

I agree he lacks Irvines bursts of quick energy. Perhaps, his was stomped on too much.

Maybe he should try cocaine....it worked for Irvin....

Haha, both LT and Michael Irvin can't be wrong...

LOL!!!

Irvin was da shit.

keyshawn needs to retool his game ala Chris Charter. He would do himself a world of good that way.

Keyshawn defineitely has skills and very good hands. He could take some lessons from Irvin on being more physical and how to get away with pushing off. I am a Cowboys fan and always liked Michael Irvin, especially when he came out of Miami, but I have to admit, the refs let his ass get away with murder. I remembe ron many occasion in the early to mid 90's his battles with Terrel Buckley, back when the Pack couldn't beat the Cowboys to save their lives. He would run a 5 yard out, knock Tbuck on the ground while the ball was in the air, catch it, then step over Tbuck and run for a big game. It would happen repeatedly, and was hilarious.
