On Thursday Night Football, A.J. Green saw 13 targets and came up with just 29 yards. No touchdown, no feast, just an embodiment of fantasy football. You never know what you're going to get, but you take your swings.
It helps when you've got a good sense for what you're swinging at. In Green's case, an injured Cleveland Browns secondary seemed like a great opportunity. Unfortunately, the volume was there, but the connection with rookie Joe Burrow was not. Still, you start a star receiver going up against a defense, with two injured cornerbacks, in what projects to be a high-scoring affair.
