And other assorted wisdom from Antonio Bryant.

Bryant said it’s easier to criticize him for his mistakes than it is to praise his contributions. “When you make a big play, it’s easy to say, ‘Look at the pass by this guy, and look at the block by this guy,’ ” Bryant said. “When you make a drop, everyone says, ‘Well, he just dropped the ball.’ No one says, ‘It wasn’t catchable’ or, ‘The defender made a great play.’ “

Every ball I’ve seen Antonio drop this year was catchable, and had no defender making a great play. I think that’s the definition of a “drop”. That’s why they call it a drop. You dropped it.
