does aiyuk need to do more as a WR 1…sure… but not like he didn't show effort and probably could've had a bigger game with some forced throws. Just hope he steps up when he is needed. 1 month of game action should hopefully get him up to full speed.
Could have just participated in camp.

Noticed him blocking on the outside zone runs to his side, made his block on the LB on the inside of the run. Love that play

BA should listen to JJ's interview postgame in locker game.

Yup. I figure by the Chiefs game, he'll be in last year's form.

Jauan Jennings is playing like the best wr in the league.

Aiyuk is playing like the 44th.

It's as simple as that.

We shouldn't be digging this deep to see the value of a WR who is one of the highest paid at his position.

100%

Jennings is a true professional. If Aiyuk talked like that and handled himself that way, the fan base would love him.

Anyone still defending Aiyuk... THIS is how a professional and team player handles himself.

"I get paid to do my job, man. So whatever they want me to do, I'm gonna do it. I tell Brock all the time whenever you're ready for 15, 15 here… All I care about is winning."

To me, BA isn't someone who rises to an occasion. He's more of a brooder. And I suspect he isn't too happy about—or motivated by—all the attention JJ is getting at the moment. Hope I'm wrong.

What did Aiyuk say? What did I miss?

BA didn't say anything despite the win. And it dawned on me Fred Warner has more TD and clutch catches than BA this season.

He's getting there? He should already be there. Yes he was covered a lot yesterday but when you think you're worth $30 million per year you should be able to beat one man coverage all day.

According to the excuse machine, he is the best in man coverage and is a consummate professional........

Warner has more touchdowns than this petulant man child who didn't want to take a backseat to CMC and Deebo.

The Dennis Rodman of the offense. This guy, Juice and Kittle are cut from the same cloth
