Crabtree the greatest catcher ever?

[Tacoma_canuck]

Yeah, just Harbaugh being Harbaugh. He does this from time to time, no biggie. Obviously, the best hands in the biz belong to Fitzgerald. Crabtree is a really good receiver though and makes the Niners a much better team on offense.

I think the best receiver in baseball history is Johnny Bench.

Harbaugh is so brilliant and innovative he's decided it'd be cute to start calling receivers "catchers."

What a total faggot douchebag tool.

I've never wished more than now that Schwartz would have stomped his arrogant ass.

Catcher? No. Wrong sport, as HD said.

Receiver? Certainly can be, kid has all the talent in the world. Saw it at Texas Tech and seeing it again now, just has to stay healthy. Biggest concern. But not on Megatron's level, nobody is.

Jim Harbaugh: Michael Crabtree is best 'catcher' ever - NFL.com

According to his HC, he is.

"People talk about cold weather and it'd be tough to catch balls," coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters after the game, per the Bay Area News Group. "But the greatest catcher of all time,Michael Crabtree, catches everything. It's unbelievable.

Aaron Rodgers BFF strongly disagrees with that

Lol...did you get an std from a dude at a bar in SF or something? You really seem to hate everything SF.

Very relevant. Your coach embarrasses you so you insult others with juvenile gay jokes. Brilliant.

Be honest Hammer: you get a little coach-envy mixed with your indignation when you see Jim Harbaugh don't ya?

It's understandable. I used to get it all the time when I saw good coaches ever since Steve Mariucci came to town.

 

[BF4L]

Harbaugh is a fucking idiot.

I mean comparing Crabtree to Jerry Rice???

I've seen your posts on the giants board, I've seen you talk about kap, I've seen you talk about harbaugh. You hate SF obviously. I'm asking you where this stems from.

How is my coach embarrassing me? He's allowed to have an opinion. I think Pepsi is the greatest soda ever.

I think he knows he's full crap with the statements he makes, but it's his style. He does it to pump up his team & possibly to piss non-49ers & non-49er fans off.

I don't think he truly believes Crabtree has the best hands he's ever seen or that he made the greatest catch he's ever seen. Or maybe he does & he's borderline crazy. Either way it's working.

Hes just Gobble, gobble, gobble jive turkey gobbling. Harbaugh runs his stupid yapper all the time.

 

[Blackshirt]

I love Harbaugh, nothing wrong with what he said. Also, Crabtree was probably the best WR I've ever witnessed in college. He has been injury prone in the NFL, but the potential is obviously there.

Did anyone see the graph that showed that Crabs has dropped 5.9% of his catchable targets which ranks 64 out of 69 qualified players currently in the league?
Harbaugh's statement is completely ridiculous. Crabs is a good WR, but he has not shown to have below average hands in his career.

 

[Wolvie]

There weren't even any amazing catches that he made the weekend that I can think of. Not sure why Harbaugh even thought to bring it up

 

[Breaker99]

I've never once heard a receiver called a "catcher." The only sport I know of that has a catcher is baseball. Is this going to be some stupid new fad like calling athletes "athletic" and 7-footers "long?"

what are you talking about ..... I refer to you as the catcher all the time..... ?

LOL! Having trouble dealing with FACTS stuporbreaker? Throwing another childish fit?

Crabs has below average hands for an NFL WR. The numbers prove it. Deal with it.

He is still a good WR. No need to act like a fucking baby about it.

I thought it was Johnny Bench

If that bothers you (it obviously does) start a thread. This one is about (another) stupid thing Jim Harbaugh said so enough with your silly attempt to turn the focus on me.

Crabtree has improved every year. He had a 10% drop percentage his rookie year. He has lowered that every year. Is he the most reliable receiver of all? No, I don't think so. He's up with the best of them as of now. Fitz would be my choice.

Which is what I said. But see, Jim Harbaugh is so brilliant, so progressive, so innovative that he's decided we're now going to refer to receivers as "catchers." And don't be a bit surprised when his lemmings follow suit.

He is the personification of the ultimate narcissistic douchebag.
