the ball was behind his head when he turned to see it. its called DVR, use it.

it's about time we have a diva WR
as long as he doesn't cause anything in the locker room, i love it. I'm tired of some of the p***y ass players we have.
Exactly we need more players that talk s**t and that get under opposing player's skins
theres a difference though if he makes a mistake and doesn't realize how is he gonna fix it he has to take responsibility for his mistakes

Where have you been? This has been all over the internet already.
That particular play had him running a slant and then taking a route in the back of the endzone. Alex had to throw it early because a rusher came in unblocked. He wasn't "ducking" the ball. It arrived earlier than it was supposed to be and it surprised him.

As we say in Bali; GOBLOK!
This guy is gonna be a very good player for the Niners, unlike another 1st rond pick that looked like doo doo from the first, and still can't win a game, well ok; 2.
Where is that snokered rum Santa drink anyway..??
You can't be serious man, I mean bout CT..

I just want this team to win......Crabtree's gotta take onus when its on him, but the Seattle one wasn't on him......but really who cares what he says we're out of the playoffs AGAIN....that's all that matters. If this guy can help get us back there let him say whatever he wants.

It is disturbing on many levels. First, his state of denial. Second, admitting he ducked to avoid the hit (the ball was NOT already behind him as he claimed). Third, the fact that neither Sing nor Sully have talked to him about the drops. Really, the former bugs me the most because it illustrates a refusal or inability to own up to 'mistakes". Someone needs to show him game tape (and by the way, don't they review tape anyway?).
That was a terrible pass. First the ball was way off and second a qb should never put his wr in a position to expose himself to get killed. I can't speak for the other alleged drops, but this one for sure was not a drop and was the result of a terrible pass.

Rice was a diva to a certain degree
Moss is/was
Hell Marvin Harrison even shot (attempted) a guy.
what I've seen from crabtree so far, is that if he works hard, he can be pretty damn good.
This. Rice was certainly a diva early in his career. A certain arrogance is part of the receiver mindset,

Not to mention he dropped some balls also in his rookie year.......thing is no internet, limited sportscenter coverage to capture all the sound bites.......Andre Johnson and perhaps Marvin Harrison, maybe Bruce only guys who never complained the rest of em....Holt, Owens, Moss, Marshall, OchoCinco, Burress, Roy Williams, Boldin, Fitz to an extent (or his brother), Edwards, Branch, Steve Smith Carolina, etc.. etc... they've all popped off or haven't fully owned up to things......I think it takes a certain mindset to think you can beat the corner one on one on every play and really all the guy wants to do is make plays....he's the most pure receiver we've had since Owens i'll take him b/c if he pops off in the locker room 52 will deck em.
