Crabtree is a good WR, but greatest catcher ever? No thanks.

He is not even the best catcher in San Francisco, that title goes to:

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?"




rumor is Rodgers is a catcher

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.

I realize he's all euphoric about the win over Green Bay but to say he's the greatest catcher ever?

Better than Calvin Johnson of the Lions? Really?

Or better than Jerry Rice?

If I listed a top 10 on this, Crabtree wont make it. Not even sure he'd make the top 25.

Calvin Johnson isn't top 10 among modern guys either.

Boldin has better hands than Crabtree though.

Crabbys drop rate this year is 3.9 percent.... not a lot of players with a better drop rate and more opportunities. Still using plain statistics he clearly isn't the best catcher if you use dropped passes as a judge of best "catcher". In the past he was at the bottom of the charts in dropped passes... Of course all of this thread is mocking harbaugh and taking his words out of context but still......

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. :rolleyes2:

Lmao. Man, people are sensitive on this site. I ask a question and all of a sudden I'm bothered and trying to draw attention to you.

If you had just answered it would be over. You're drawing more attention to yourself this way.

But w/e

Lmao. Wow.





Anyway, if I need any 9er receiver to make a catch with the game on the line, I would be more comfortable with going to Boldin than Crab. But Harbaugh plays these games that gets everyone's panties in a bunch.

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.

Absolutely - it's so easy to disprove his assertion in a couple clicks.

I guess by great "catcher" he means great hands?

Cris Carter comes to mind when you talk about great hands.

Larry Fitz has the best hands of players today.

Agreed 100%.

You can make the argument that Crabtree isn't the best catcher of all time in the NFL, but who can argue with the fact that Kaepernick is the best PITCHER in the NFL? He has quite a fastball, and his change-up isn't bad either.

I'm pointing out what my broski Hammer said. He put his foot down, you shouldnt be stepping on his toes.

Are you ever not a clown? You come in taking personal shots and then tell people to fuck off for taking personal shots back.

Kinda funny considering 49ers mods ban more people than anyone on this site.

You think I got emotional? ha You need to try allot harder, kid.

Yeah, you're obnoxious and don't contribute enough to warrant keeping you around. Maybe you should head to your team boards and stay there.

"yall sensitive asses"

I didn't comment on that specifically, just that there were a couple of butthurt 9ers fans in here who are rustled because someone dare speak ill of their team.

"yall sensitive asses"

well, what i said was an obvious joke. i was trying to figure out why you're so anti SF, and your responses screamed emotional.

and no more alts sf ..

Yeah, didn't even mention that. Last warning on that shit.

wasnt me. already explained it. aint happening again.

Why don't you just shut up, dude? There have been plenty of people who thought they were smart enough to use alts and get away with it. They weren't and are now gone. If you want to stick around then follow the few rules we have and stop trying to stir up trouble with the admin/mod's.
