In big games??? He set a playoff record for yards and he almost did it again in the playoffs. It doesn't get any bigger than that.
Verses the Giants in the playoffs - extraordinary
Verses GB in the playoffs - a mismatch nightmare
Verses the Saints in the playoffs - THE CATCH III
Is he still the only TE EVER with over 2 13 td seasons?
Come on
Yeah he had an awesome 2 year out of the 10 years he was with us. Congratulations on record setting games.
Yeah let's disregard that he had plenty of good games and he hardly ever didn't show up in big games. Wow. He should get many congratulations on being such a good tight end and mismatch
VD was the most physically gifted TE ever IMO. I can't imagine the numbers he would've put up with an elite QB. Would've been a HOFer if he had that IMO.
Vernon had speed and that was literally it. had terrible hands and never used his size to his advantage.
I loved VD but he could be infuriating at times. How many passes could he have caught in stride and gotten YAC out of only to see him do that stupid jump body catch he loved.
His size, speed, strength, and athleticism combination as a TE was crazy though, That's what I mean by most physically gifted TE I've ever watched. Did he use it up to the best of his abilities? I think obviously not but based on his physical gifts and looking at the numbers he managed to put up with mostly bad QB play for his career I don't think it's much of a stretch to say he could've been a HOFer with an elite QB. Just my opinion though. His hands were pretty bad for most of his career though I'll agree.
His quickness was poor and he was very stiff. Kittle is slower but way more athletic than Davis. On the field that is.
