I’m loving this Odell “redemption” story. Proving all these clowns in the media wrong. He was NOT the problem. He just had a mediocre QB
What are you talking about Odell Beckham had 537 yard this season that sucks... I think he told you he was very good so you believed him....or he danced real good in the end zone when he caught a 4 yard pass when they could have ran it in but had to throw it to him or he would cause a big scene....
@@jamesjazzy8040 do U even watch football ?
@@kiddsosa1311 Seriously
@@jamesjazzy8040 You’re either a Browns fan or don’t watch football at all. Which one?
Odell Beckham M.V.P. of 2022 S.B.
He had 1000+ yards in his first year in Cleveland .hurt last year. This season he was open plenty baker couldn’t get him the ball
I’ve been saying this for years lol everybody always forgets that 1st year in Cleveland, and it’s always comes from a biased argument
@@silver.surferr could've had more TDs also but they didn't really throw the ball in the end zone.
@@dustinray9011 and even if he has over 1,000 yds he still doesn’t get deep attempt options it would always be in the slot when it was his first year in Cleveland
@@dustinray9011 Zero need to when you have Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb. If OBJ didn’t make a big play he wasn’t going to score with those two RBs being automatic
@@jchuks23 not saying there was a need to. Just saying thats why his TDs were low. Besides baker dont have the accuracy for red zone throws either way
There are times when Kim sometimes has a good take... this isn't one of those times
This was the worst take she has ever given, she got cooked by Stephen A and Ryan Clark
She's always terrible.
When she said Deebo was a better WR I stopped listening
@@Noah-fj5bm seriously! And she compared his tenure with the Browns, I was completely shocked the fact that there are literal stats that he produced way more with the Rams than he did in Cleveland
So true… I’m like sis shut up PLEASE!
I think he has the chance to breakout in the Superbowl since Coop is going to take alot of the attention.
Coop been taking attention all season and has still been unstoppable. Make no mistake....the passing game goes through him first and ALWAYS
Cooper kupp can’t be stopped
Kim’s take sounds horrible! Odell literally had games when he was targeted 3 times or in multiple games in Cleveland! Odell was breaking records as a number 1 and healthy. He’s healthy and is on a team that has a QB that throws him the ball
and ppl say Molly is annoying, I'm glad RC put her in her place bc that broad is 1000% clueless
She eye candy 💯💯id smash like King Kong
It’s so annoying listening to a woman’s take on sports period but especially football 🏈 because they never seemed to know what they’ve talking about
she really had a chance and blew it. When she started naming off guys who ARE NOT better than OBJ
Agreed
Bro I was thinking the same thing 😂😂
All them niggas are better rn lol
@@steelface29 she said goodwin
@@steelface29 deebo isn’t a better wr. He is a great offensive weapon but if we are talking about wr only pure route running and hands I’m taking Odell
Odell is a 1-ish wr still . He gets a bad rap because people wish they could be him .
I'll take 1-ish, everyday!
nah he is a 1 all day... he just didnt get service until later on in the season when Matt started trusting him more... Browns coach made a lot of plays to target Odell but Baker didnt want to pass him the ball... Odells first season showed Baker could pass him the ball but as the seasons went on Bakers ego made him dislike passing Odell
@@isaacdebeila8085 because Baker is egotistical and wanted to be the star not realizing that passing to OBJ is what was gonna make him a star 🤷🏾♂️
Odell should stay a Ram. He has it made there. Yes Kupp is the #1 but Stafford will still look for him unlike a certain quarterback with a Progressive commercial.
Robert woods
@@banddiego6530 WR3 next year. Rams will build this offense around Kupp & OBJ. Woods will block for em 🤷🏾♂️
@@DondreDashard Unless OBJ is willing to take a big pay cut he's gone
“ Kimberly A. Hater” 😂😂
She took that personally. She just has to lighten up.
If you watch the games you know he can b a number 1 easy. They can’t guard him out there and he catches everything
facts odell is still one of the best red zone wr in the game, but Rams tend not to use that all the time cause they want to max out as many stats for Kupp which is ok by me cause dude had quite the season
Bro that OBJ paris vid 😭😭😭😭 SAS had me crying lol
Her take LITERALLY shows why some men don’t want to hear women talk on these shows, like what?! Overall she’s really good on her takes, but if this was my first time seeing/hearing her, she dropped the ball hard on this on this one. Odell has definitely proved he’s capable of being a number 1, I agree he should stay in LA, but he can go be a number 1 elsewhere
I agree with you 100%!
Facts cringe asf
He’s proven he’s an amazing number 2 in LA, but he’s only facing single coverage he actually has not proved he’s a number 1 receiver
Misogynist
@A we'd be calling that guy a fool
We ALL new OBJ could still play & be a No. 1 again. Ppl act or forget like he didn’t tear his knee just last season & was playing w/the dreaded Mayfield
She don’t know football lmaou
Tell her to 🤫
Brother is ballin. Gotta respect that. It doesn't matter about the past. Right now that brother has proved he is legit.
He was never a bad receiver Cleveland just was not the right place for him because Cleveland uses him like a backup while la uses him as a X factor
OK...if you call catching 3 passes a game balling. He had 44 catches the whole entire season....there’s a bunch of receivers that have over 100 almost 3 times the amount he had.... he’s below average but probably because he tore his ACL. When you catch 4 yard touchdown passes and jump all over the place and draw attention to yourself yes it looks like you’re balling......
Bruh yes he can, but is it smarter for him to be a number 2 yes. When Baker Mayfield missed him all those times those are tons of yards missed. Don’t act like he’s washed y’all
The girl in the middle sound like a hater 😂😂
Kimberly Martin has to be the worst "analyst" or "reporter" on air i've ever seen.
I'm absolutely astonished. After all the stutters/mistakes on Live TV, and her terrible takes/opinions.. i really don't get how ESPN keeps her on these... Has nothing to do with gender because we love women who actually know
sports. she's just got to go!
She said O'Dell can't be a number 1 because he's not Cooper kupp or davante Adam's. Them proceeded to say deebo samuels is s better receiver. 😭 I love deebo but I'd rather cover him 1 on 1 than O'Dell. O'Dell has always been technically sound since his rookie year. His athletesism was a major plus. People lean into this Nairobi of the catch made his career and not the fact that his first 3 years in the NFL were only comparable to Hall of Fame WR's. ESPN needs better analysts than this. That was cringe.
@@gooze4244 Bro she's clueless I'm glad RC put her in her place bc she has no clue
If Odell goes to the Pats, ravens, or raiders. Instant Superbowl expectations
i want to see him join Ravens, Lamar hasnt had an elite QB ever, a guy who can get open when the defense shuts down the offense... one of the big reason Lamar struggles in playoffs is due to not having a receiver who can do that... the same reason Kyler struggled was due to not having Hopkins making him look better than he actually is
He’s going to stay with the Rams
Man who is this chick. Get her off the air asap. Where is cam newton when you need him lol
Her name is Kimberly Martin and she's terrible on every take she does, consistently stutters & just spews stupidity on the air. There's a video on youtube where she just completely goes blank, it's hilarious. I cannot stand her at all, look at Stephen A's face when she talks🤣
@@madridmusic ngl I don’t like her either brother. I’m an advocate for women empowerment. I believe women belong in these fields but she just made a mockery of the whole movement. This is not the first time I’ve been disgusted by her performance on a sports show
Did she just say Godwin?😂😂😂😂 like mike ain’t set a nfl record this year and he has all time numbers lmao
Chris Godwin isn’t even the #1 on his own team LMAO.
He's not even a number 1 on the line at McDonald's.
@@sp0re8900 once again Mike Evans continues to be the most underrated WR in the league
I’ve never seen a dude get disrespected do much
Facts
Yes he can still be a #1 WR Again with the right team he can be a Beast 🤔
Nah he’s best served as a #2 tbh
@@greenbeamking4455 ravens,chargers and Buffalo all give him a good shot to win a chip if he wins one this year. Only team tho that I see him being a #1 tho Is chargers because they don't have a receiver better than him plus he won't have to leave LA again
@@sp0re8900 1) Keenan Allen is better than OBJ 2) Stefon Diggs is better than OBJ 3) Ravens are a run heavy offense so he’d probably have basically the same production as Cleveland 4) Im not necessarily saying he’s not a top 32 WR, im more so saying you’d get the best production out of him if he’s playing with someone like a Cooper Kupp that can take eyes off of him
He could be better at 1A with the rams next year
@@greenbeamking4455 facts
Why do they have women talking about this? OBJ is definitely a #1 if he can get the same targets. No one can guard him still to this day
ESPN please only include chicks who know sports this girl is clueless
With all the offense in the world. Why is this random girl reporter taking like she know💀💀😭😭😭😭 thank you RC
Why is this girl talking. She just as bad as Molly . Please bring Mina instead of this person
Bra bring an empty seat and it’ll be better
lets not forget that odell was one of top 5 best receivers in the nfl before his broken foot in 2017, he had 3 seasons with at least 1300 yards and even after he had 2 straigth with over a thousand, he is a generational talent receiver, but his career just didnt go as planned
He would be a number one in Philly I love devonte smith but you get Odell he number one in philly
Where is Mina when you need her. Kimberly is way off. This was her worst take yet
Good segment by both SAS and RC. Let's go Rams.
she dropped the ball with her take. she named already contenders. if odell goes to some teams he can make that team a contender. he can be a #1 on the bears, ravens, panthers, 9ers (as far as pure WR odell>>deebo>>aiyuk) eagles, giants, steelers, patriots, and some teams he would be a 1A if he’s with a WR that’s on the same level as him
Agreed
Lol deebo is a receiver niners won’t run him as much due to injury risk he had like a thousand yards catching before he started running the ball
@@JD-sy1ql correct but as a PURE WR i’m taking odell. route running, hands, downfield speed im taking that. if he was on 9ers him and deebo would be so versatile as long as they got a QB
@@db2k34 not doubt they would but I believe this take is trying to say Odell wouldn’t be a wr1 on most teams because teams already have their wr1s Odell a great player but he’s had his problems out side the field and is more injury prone than half the receivers mentioned I believe Odell could be wr1 on teams like jags pats Philly Denver
@@JD-sy1ql issues off the field have nothing to do with your ability to be a #1. (antonio brown in tampa) what happened in games where mike evans or godwin didn’t play? you see AB put up numbers similar to how he did in pittsburgh. even though he wasn’t the #1 on that team. and a lot of it comes down to targets. no one was talking about cooper kupp being a #1 WR until stafford got there. he wasn’t in no one’s top 5 top 10 etc. but now he gets the targets to SHOW he’s a number 1. odell didn’t have that in cleveland and he didn’t have it towards the end in new york with eli fading away. he is still a number 1 it’s all about situation.
Cooper Kupp literally won the receiving triple crown. I’m not trying to go there but I feel like people are underplaying how great Cooper is because he’s a short white guy but he’s been the best receiver in the league
Everything you said is right except he’s not short , surprisingly he’s 6’2
I’m black and i agree. But Kupp is 6’2 that’s pretty tall for WR in the nfl today
He’s def top 3 maybe even the second but I wouldn’t be so quick to say he’s better than adams. I’m a chiefs fan but you just have to acknowledge the speed ( ofc not the fastest but still pretty fast), his incredible route running, and his incredible hands. But I do think kupp is top 3 maybe top 2
I’m sayin like why they so pressed over Odell 😂. He’s good and all but he ain’t even the best on his own team.
Definitely not short lol
Dis reporter lady has always been an obj hater Ryan is right af
What the heck is she talking about yo she must be on there cause pretty because she's not making any sense lol
he’s literally better then all the receivers she named except Davonte and debo maybe because how versatile he is
He is not better than J'mar Chase or Justin Jefferson
@@leonzaduncan2438 you don’t watch football you just follow the hype i can tell
@@kiloox8 I do and I know right now, he is not better than either one
@@leonzaduncan2438 your right about chase he's burrows #1 and has great speed but Jefferson I haven't seen crazy speed and he just doesn't have the kinda hands odell has when he's rolling dude can catch a ball 1 handed in the air while falling down.
@@leonzaduncan2438 he literally is😂 Odell has better hands then both of them. More explosive then both of them faster then both of them. More clutch then both of them. Y’all look at stats and think that’s the be all end all.
Stephen a looking at her like u don’t know what u talking about
She don't know what she talking about its 32 teams an u say 4 ppl
That’s why women shouldn’t talk about sports
@@eazye2841 facts
WRs are usually in their prime until about 32/33 and Odell is 29. Unless injuries slowed him down, he should be #1 wr
People make the "hes playing with Cooper kupp that's why his stats are what they are" but use that same argument about other receivers across the league. Davanta adams, DeAndre Hopkins, Jamar chase just to name a few. How come their no.2 receiver ain't Ballin like odell is?
Great point sir📌
Great WR need great QB to be great so wen the time is right ODELL will shine as the 🌞light on the big stage where stars a created.
She don’t know what she talking about
odell is a true number 1 on at least 20/32 teams in the nfl...STOP PLAYING with Odell Bechkam jr!
She is saying on a contending team.
@@leonzaduncan2438 titans,ravens,chargers, Oakland even 49ers I know they got a good te but a receiver like him no. All these teams are contenders and could win now that the wicked witch is dead... ( Cough) I mean brady.
All he needs is a good qb. Not fake fraudfield
@@laurenzdike6108 I love OBJ still think he is top 15
Odell just proved that he wanted to be drafted to LA. Rams or Super Bowl team or a New York famous market.
Boy he was drafted by the Giants
@@jonnis2534 ik that I’m just saying it
Alot of melanin on this panel ✊🏿✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾
Chris Godwin... #1 receiver over Mike Evans? 🤔
That’s what I was thinking lmao somebody need to get her off the air💀
They always forget Mike Evans
If the Bengals managed to neutralize Cooper Kupp, we'll see if Odell is truly a number one
Well, neutralizing Kupp will NEVER happen!
Odell going shine
she said jamar and jefferson are on different level than odell is crazy 🤣🤣
You put him on the ravens or steelers he is a number one
Beckham Jr. Deserves it....Jets fan
I'm right there with you. Been a Jets fan since 1996 🥺 born and raised in Brooklyn
Chris Godwin is not #1 over odell😂😂
chris godwin is better then odell
@@josephkaisamba1792 if Godwin and odell was on the same team odell would be the #1 receiver
@@josephkaisamba1792 Godwin doesn’t know how to be a number 1. He is a solid number 2.
Ravens and Lamar Jackson should give Odell Beckham a call
The Ravens still want to run the ball and and Lamar Jackson still needs to learn how to throw better from the pocket. They also just drafted Rashod Bateman
@@cuervojones6454 he’s throwing is fine lol
@@yogo3457 yea to the other team. He had way more INTs this season than any other in his career. And only played 12 games. He probably would have led the league.
I wouldn't answer the phone. They run the ball 75% of the time lol
Hope OBJ stays in LA
Dell Beckham Jr. can be 100% prove he can be No. 1 WR again. He is very underrated and keep getting disrespect form the fans.
“He was eating pizza” 😂😂😂😂😂
Us stephen A ever right?: I believe they only need stephen A to be a punching bag for the actual athletes who debate him on ESPN
Everybody looking real gq 🔥 molly setting the tone as usual
Yeah she tweaking. Odell can’t be NB1. girl your tripping 😂🤦🏼♂️ that’s why you ain’t main streaming.
Lmao
Ryan Clark: yeah that’s a great take
Stephen A :👀
I mean its all in how it's framed. Is a #1 literally just the most targeted reciever on any team and be good than yes. But my vision of a "#1" is can he be the best receiving option on a top 12 passing offense. Which I think isn't exactly what it means but that's what comes to my mind and by that criteria I think he's just barely outside of that.
How isn’t he a number 1 receiver? There aren’t 12 guys who is better then odell. People look at stats and think that’s the be all end all. Odell has the best hands ( You could argue D Hop as well )in the league top 10 route runner. Probably one of the most explosive wr in the league. I look at the eye test and from what I see ofc he’s a number 1 option🤦🏾♂️
Shorty said Chris Godwin and not Mike Evans….. Girl what. Up there fumbling the bag. “hEs nOt eVeN tHe #1 WR oN hIs tEam” man has cooper kupp on his team who’s had over 2K yards this season. She know she ain’t coming back
Totally agree, but not with the rams. Cooper Kupp has all time great potential, so Odell being #1 there would make no sense. Really, I like the New England patriots for Odell as a #1 to where he can have the combination of winning AND the #1 spot. Mac jones also needs A LOT of help on the outside to throw to, and Odell can help mac develop as a quarterback. Bill belichick can help Odell clean up his flaws too bro
can he be? possibly. has he proven it? no. he plays with the best receiver in football rn.
You can still be a number one with another one. OBJ has been doubled on LA too. Watch the all 22 film. They both feed off each other. Was Reggie Wayne not a number one, just because Marvin Harrison was on the field?
Police: "Have you been drinking tonight?"
Me: "I been eating pizza?"
Odell is a good football player
SAS was one of the main folks on his head about all that, he’s such a flip flopper😂😂😂😂
Woaa cuối cùng thì cũng có bài này rùi hihi😍❤
Omg she made Molly look smart please be quiet😭💀🤦🏿♂️
She really did tho. I’ve never seen that happen once. This might’ve been the single worst performance in sports segment history. Not even just the take but the mannerisms and referencing her “gorgeous eyes”. This was bad
Get her off
SAS said it right if you can’t say there’s 32 teams that have a WR that you’d take over Odell as a #1 than the answer is yes he still is. He’d be a #1 in Houston, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Las Vegas just to name a few imo
Kimberly disappointed me she said deebo💀😂
OBJ the price just went up! Everyone know that’s that man means to any team! Congratulations OBJ🎉🎉🎉
Officer: what did you see?"
Me: "I just saw pizza?"
Bittersweet for OBJ! He scored in the Superbowl and wins the Superbowl but he might have torn his ACL! Hopefully he'll make a full recovery and ready for the next season!
When in the history of football would we ever think we would be saying cooper kupp is better than Odell 😂 crazy how these story lines goes
Bro Kim really don’t know football💯
who is this chick never heard of her she just came outta nowhere onto first take
Yo the lady who gave that take is valid and she made a really good point I personally think Odell is a way better 2 option in this stage of his career
Odell is still criminally underrated.
Kim Martin is so frustrating. Being a No. 1 WR DOES NOT mean that you are top 8 or top 10 or even top 12 in the league. What it means is: Is there a team he can go to, out of the 32 teams that exist, where he would be the best WR on the team? If odell went to Jacksonville he would be the WR1. If he went to the Jets he’d be the WR1. If he went to the Falcons he’d be WR1. If he went to the Saints he’d be WR1. There are 32 WR1’s and within those 32 there are tiers. Odell is prob a Mid - Low Mid tier WR1, maybe even better, but the sample size isn’t that large with the Rams. He may be expected to be the Rams WR1 next year with all the coverage Kupp is gonna draw.
obj is still 🔥 a wr1 and you will see it this Sunday
Obj is #1
I say get this ring and go be a number 1 somewhere else. He should find a team to now finish his resume and compete to be in the conversation for the goat WRs‼️
Come to ATL Odell
How? By being a solid number 2/3? A true number 1 can still be good/great when being doubled every game! That's a true number 1. I agree with Greg Jennings in that there are only 9 or 10 true number 1s in the league. There are soo many really good 2s in the league at the moment that the level to be a real number 1 has risen i think.
Odell is a great talent but playing with Kupp helped him this season because you gotta focus on him more than any receiver in the league rn. Odell obviously has potential though.
Bra he was open all the time in Cleveland baker couldn’t get him the ball
Potential bra he been one of the best receivers since he came in the league
They feed off each other. I’ve seen Odell get doubled and Cooper Kupp and Van eat. Y’all gotta understand that. The media won’t tell you that tho
Please stop bringing up what my Browns did during the end of the 2020 season and saying it because we didn’t have OBJ in the line up. I’m sick of hearing it. We showed our true colors this year.
yall SICK in Cleveland...at least yall still got Machine Gun Kelly 🤣
@@usmcmikeco0651 way to kick a man when he’s down lol
I couldn’t be happier for OBJ tho. Glad to see him successful again
@@jmurray5484 🤣🤣🤣 my bad
You send Odell to Baltimore it's on
Dont see how....while he is doing well ,he isnt getting all the attention from the defense and only plays in certain situations...he may be a good support player but he isnt worth the big money he once received.He needs to stay put and negotiate a reasonable salary where he is...his role would likely expand ,especially with injury..and here is the important thing...the team is good!!..he could compensate will endorsement deals and attention....not to mention actually have a longer and decent career.
Not a raiders fan but Odell should go to the Raiders since they need a receiver bad. He will shine in Vegas
OBJ just needs focus on getting this ring, he gone get paid. Team/QB matters for OBJ probably
If Odell was snorting those white powder instead of eating pizza, that would be a different story 😂
He can be 1# option on half the teams Jets Giants Lions Washington Vegas Steelers etc
She is saying true contenders, of course he can for sorry teams.
@@leonzaduncan2438 well yeah then she is correct!
Obj was the clutch player before that injurying and stafford had nobody to throw .
NO HE HAS NOT. #1 receivers get double teamed. He is currently benefiting from the attention cooper is getting. I hope he does get a SB ring and get more attention by the media. He is a great player just not the #1 receiver on the Rams.
Not all #1 wr’s get doubled ☠️ they mean can he be #1 again on another team
@@princecheck11 I would say to you again NO. Especially now he seems to have lingering injuries. He has lost a step and also a lot of confidence versus his NY days.

@@princecheck11 Yes in the end they won because of Kupp(MVP) not OBJ who was crying because he was injured LOL. Yes I am so wrong, SMH.
She really meant Mike Evans!
I don’t think it’s in him anymore he does have that same twitch or speed anymore like he once did maybe it comes back next season maybe but I don’t see it
Excellent commercials
She’s comparing two diff things she’s comparing one receiver against another sure one is better than the other but that doesn’t mean that he is not a number one receiver
