Is Michael Pittman Jr. a #1 WR? (2021 Film Room)
 

The Indianapolis Colts Wide Receiver: Michael Pittman Jr. has developed many skills in the past season and a half, that indicates he has #1 WR potential.

I break down his first 6 weeks of the 2021 NFL season, using the All-22 film, to see what exactly he brings to the team!

Let me know if you think he is, or has potential to be, a #1 WR.

Yes.

Is Michael Pittman Jr. a #1 WR? (2021 Film Room)

Yes, we don't really have a choice, right? He's our WR1.

If fans here cant see Pittman as a legit #1 wr, they should rewatch last nights game

He certainly is getting to be a #1...he reminds me of Mike Evans at Tampa.

Brady has always thrown up those jump balls and let his stronger taller receivers jump up and grab them...Carson Wentz is throwing up some of those same jump balls to Pittman, there is a skill to doing that and Wentz is getting pretty good at it!

I am still shocked that MPJ was able to snag that catch. It looked way overthrown.

I think Dre Kirkpatrick’s eyes were bigger than the ball.

My words were,”Is this his coming out party?”

Against the tacks, we will know.

How Michael Pittman Jr.'s Stutter has Helped Shape Him into a Leader for the Indianapolis Colts

(By Stephen Holder)

Pittman is a number 1 Wr for the team he plays for. Is he better than Tyreek or Kupp or Godwin or Evans or Jefferson, Diggs, Adams, Waddle, Kelce, Lamb?????

He's not better than Kupp or Diggs, but he is very good!

He is very good but not a game changer. He drops too many game changer passing catches.

Tyreek or Kupp or Godwin or Evans or Jefferson, Diggs, Adams, Waddle, Kelce, Lamb..

This is my Wr and Te that are game changers...

Best route runner I seen for a long time is Waddle someone can dispute it but best I've seen for a while.

How can we properly evaluate what he can do with below average/bad QBs throwing to him? Currently I thinks he's a #2 but who knows?

I would LOVE pittman as our #2

I honestly don't care about who is our #1 or #2 WR anymore. We need a QB1 and LT1 and (probably) C1 before we worry about WRs. No combination of WRs in the entirety of the NFL would be worth a crap on the current Colts team. We're also going to need a GM, head coach, offensive coordinator...

Team is a mess.

Pittman as the Colts' #2 receiver, and the second coming of John Stallworth or Lance Alworth as the #1 ...... sounds good to me.

(vs. BROWNS, 10/22/23)


Pittman had only 2 catches today, but they were both big.

The 8-yard reception which he caught near the goal-line was just as impressive as was his scintillating 75-yard catch-and-run for a TD ...... he leapt high in the air to catch the ball, and then hung onto it for a much-needed 1st down in spite of getting hit in the back by a defender immediately after the grab.

o

His drop near the endzone was a crap pass. It's penalizing a guy for not making a one-handed grab behind his body. Yeah they will make those occasionally but not every time. Hit him in stride and good things will happen.

Also on a side note, nice to see Steichen adjusting and having the outside guys run shorter routes and get some targets. Plays more to Minshew's strengths and shows that he is seeing what is happening league-wide and adjusting.

Yeah, definitely can't count that incompletion on Pitt. And if Minshew had hit him in stride then it would have been a TD.

3 Bold Predictions for the Colts vs. Titans Week 13 Matchup

(By Destin Adams)

https://atozsports.com/indianapolis/...defense-score/



Michael Pittman Jr. Will Have 100+ Yards and a Touchdown


During the Colts last matchup with the Titans, the Titans were able to corral Michael Pittman Jr. to five receptions for only 57 yards. Same as above, I think this is an area that the Colts will attempt to fix this time around by getting their star wide receiver the ball early and often. I think it will result in a big day for Pittman Jr., as I'm predicting he leaves Week 13 with over 100 yards receiving and will find the endzone at least once.
