What impressed me is how well he has picked up this offense...Most rookies are limited their 1st year due to the complexity of this offense.... just wait till he knows it all... [Reply]
1. His route running. I figured he'd just be a return guy.
2. His ability to take a hit. I was really concerned about this, and it was obvious that it was CAR gameplan.
3. Decision making. In both returns and routes. He doesn't often think his legs are good for more than they are.
It's not just raw speed either, like Easy 6 said, he's got good hands and heart. The guy goes after the ball with a vengeance and he plays tough. Seems like he really loves playing, too. Football is probably really fun to play when you're at least 2 steps faster than everybody you're playing against. [Reply]

Thats definitely one you always gotta worry about with a guy his size, but he is a thickly built little sucker... not a chicken bone like DAT or various other guys around the league
Loved the play where he caught the little 3 yard toss and split two defenders that had him dead to rights for another 2-3 yards... much like Charles, its amazing what a little toughness and willpower can do for smaller guys [Reply]

Yeah, you can just tell. He's a playmaker and he can gain the tough yards too. I'm amazed at how he made the first guy miss on his early punt return today. [Reply]
Hill absolutely is our best WR right now. Maclin having an off year and now hurt. Let's Hill get more opportunities. Now we just need to make he and Kelce the focal point. Then throw in Conley and Maclin and the offense will evolve in the passing game. Just stop throwing it to Harris for the love of God [Reply]

Its not that maclin is having a down year, its that alex smith is having a down down down year. He's played horrible pretty much all season except for 1 half of football against the Chargers. Alex is limiting this offense so much right now. [Reply]
