WR Marvin Harrison Jr.

Man, he struggled again big time before making some catches in the 4th quarter. I think he's at a crossroads and he's dealing with a crisis of confidence. From everything I've read, he's a good kid....but he's got a ways to go to live up to being the 4th overall pick in the Draft. 

Gannon told Harrison he wanted him to play faster Thursday, and he said after that he felt Harrison did just that. There were moments Thursday when Harrison looked dejected, but Gannon said to come back from those emotions, Harrison needed to "control the controllables," and the team's psychological training helped him in those situations.

"He wants to help the team win," Gannon said. "He gets down on himself. He's got to let that go and control the controllables, which for me for him is just play fast. Control your effort, your mode of play and play fast, and I thought that's what he did."

He’ll be fine but I wonder what was going through his old man’s head when Marv caused the INT last night.

I see him in the same light as Kyler Murray: incredible talents, can light up the highlight reel and/or scoreboard without warning, but their "A Games" are in bursts, not games or even quarters of games. When the rumor mill had us trading Cousins (every 15 minutes for 5+ years), Murray kept coming up as a potential trade target. I was relieved when nothing came of that.
