for those interested in a receiving prop
NO. 3 MATTERS: Evident in the first five games this season are the opportunities the No. 3 receiver in the Packers? offense has been given. Before he suffered a concussion against Buffalo, Geronimo Allison was having a terrific start with 19 catches for 289 yards (15.2 average) and two touchdowns. The attention being paid to top receiver Davante Adams and tight end Jimmy Graham is leaving lots of holes in the defense for the No. 3 to get open. Last week, with Allison (hamstring) and Randall Cobb (hamstring) out, rookie Marquez Valdes-Scantling moved into the No. 2 spot and rookie Equanimeous St. Brown moved into the three spot. St. Brown was targeted five times and caught three passes for 89 yards. His average of 29.7 yards per catch was the best by a Packers rookie (minimum three receptions) since James Jones posted a 35.7-yard average (three for 107) at Denver on Oct. 29, 2007. If Allison and Cobb are both out, St. Brown will be the No. 3 again. If one of the two plays, Valdes-Scantling will move into the No. 3 spot.

The only game that has not done this is football (soccer)...all American based sports have catered to what the consumer wants, i.e. TV ratings for the networks. Easy formula...I might be wrong here, just my opinion. Prime example was baseball with everyone juiced....and no historian here but was the shot clock introduced in basketball in the 50s, then you have the DH...
Watching the game with the Spanish commentators makes it much more interesting, especially when I dont understand Spanish...:0008
