Let me just say this about that:
We can debate all we want about hands, route running, blocking, and most importantly, stats (productivity).
I submit ONE play that separates Nacua from everyone else:
It was vs the seahawks (I believe the first game).
3rd down and Nacua catches a pass on a comeback, past the 1rst down marker. THREE seahawks knock him off his cleats and push him about 3 yards back behind the sticks. It’s still a 1rst down based on forward progress and I think everybody can see that. Nacua answers as soon as his cleats hit the grass. He spins, squares up and drives ALL three of those motherfuckers back past the line of gain—just to be sure?
Name another WR who does that. Who doesn’t just flip the ball and trot back to the huddle knowing it SHOULD be a 1rst down?
There was more going on there than just “being sure.”
Puka’s highlight reel will match anyone else’s when it comes to great catches, but will any of THEIRS have a statement play like that?
