    So funny. He thinks he has leverage? Hey, maybe this can work to our advantage. There has to be a team out there who is desperate and will take a chance on a pot head and we get a decent player in a trade. Just don`t do something stupid like sending to a contender.

    Guys just relax there wasn't a Gatorade cooler handy at the time and so he said something to a reporter. Sunday will see at least 3 go routes to Bryant and his 1st 100 yard plus game with at least 1 TD. It's what you do.

    They should deactivate him for the rest of the season. After the tolerance and patience the team showed with him this clown wants to quit on his teammates ? Unbelievable. He has no trade value because the moron destroyed that with childish behavior... now he’s showing he learned nothing. The team should deactivate him for the rest of the year.

    He was targeted plenty last year. No reason that should change.

    Its simply because he missed a season and Ben is off. Bryant will regain form, Ben I dont know.

    Even if the targets don't change, the quality of the passes have changed so far. Ben can't seem to hit the deep routes so far this year. Bryant can get open deep. He can also take a slant to the house. Ben is missing his throws so far though. So I think Bryant is going to struggle this year mostly due to Ben struggling. AB will always get his though. His route running is exceptional and there's where Bryant struggles, so AB will be able to get open far more often then Bryant

    Ben was pretty on point today other than a hair long on the pass to meat hands.

    He wasn’t world beater and didn’t need to be. Quite a few passes hitting them boys in stride today and if AB didn’t hiccup on the slant there wouldn’t have been a pick.

    Agree on the pick, disagree on everything else you wrote. Ben was off today for the most part. He had a handful of good throws of course, as any NFL QB will, but he wasn't hitting guys in stride. The AB TD should have been picked. Several other throws missed their target completely or required the receiver to reach behind them.

    Agree he wasn’t all there, but he was money in some throws in stride... wasn’t great but trending up. AB TD was a stupid throw that just bounced their way for sure. Idk I thought he looked better than he has recently. Still room to improve

    Hines was never an over the top receiver. Loved the guy, but his gifts lay elsewhere.

    The reason Martavis isn't as sharp as Brown and other shorter receivers is the same reason most tall receivers aren't as good route runners. Their stride makes it harder for them to break in and out of routes with the quickness that he does.

    I saw him working on it during the off-season. I think his frustration is that he's broken several big plays from those routes and it looked like he was just decoy today. He was wide open (Ben could have floated it and he had plenty of time to wait for it and get in the endzone) for a walk in touchdown on that one long completion to Brown when e came back and tried to throw a blow without getting penalized for a crack back.

    I wouldn't break a KC cheerleader tackle on me. I would lay there and couldn't think of anything nasty enough that I wouldn't let her do to me

    Wait, isnt he the one that said that AB shouldnt throw Gatorade coolers if he doesnt get the ball thrown to hom?. This reminds me of the blount plan. After a big win, and your fellow teammate is having one of the games of his career...you want to be traded...wow bryant! This is how you repay Loyalty?!

    Have anyone notice how we all of a sudden never take any shots deep?? Reason why we were so excited by our powerful offense on paper was the addition of our best deep threat (Martavis Bryant) replacing Sammy Coates ...but we never use it?? Mind-boggling...

    Does nobody remember when Rappaport said Ben wanted traded. He probably seen where Bryant’s wife put can’t wait to get out of here on instagram and ran with it. Hell she could have meant KC.

    I'm a huge Bryant fan -- heck look at my avatar... BUT, dude needs to grow the heck us.

    The Steelers didn't have to keep him after his drug offense -- they could have cut him.

    We took a chance on him and how does he repay us? He drops 2-3 wide open touchdown passes (one probably cost us the Bears game) and demands a trade.

    So insanely idiotic if true.

    his tweets have to be posted. He can't look like a diva and/or damaged goods.

    When multiple analyst/beat writers confirm the rumor, I'm sure it's true.
