As we mentioned recently when Patrick Mahomes challenged Josh Allen to a distance throwing competition, we are continuing the time-honored tradition of NFL players getting triggered by how they’re ranked by league-adjacent entities.
The latest installment here is that NFL Network is unveiling its top 100 players for 2020, and Chargers receiver Keenan Allen got ranked no. 77 overall. We can’t see where Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Tyreek Hill are ranked yet — the only ones out there so far are 70-100 — but Allen is assuming they’re (in his opinion) undeservedly ahead of him:
Ok I’m tired of biten my tongue…@cheetah @MikeEvans13_ @chrisgoodwin… ( and the list goes on) ARE NOT a better reciever than me! Faster than me…every day of the week but separation..CHILD PLEASE! https://t.co/rBQwJZWkE3

Mike Evans disagrees:
You tagged the wrong Chris Godwin lol and don’t be mad at us we ain’t make the rankings or care about em. I like the confidence but be realistic you not on my level bro https://t.co/AONodMpfkW

Meanwhile, Chris Godwin laughed off the fact that Allen tagged the wrong guy in reference to him:
oh shit lol Don’t sweat it G, Chris Goodwin ain’t better than me either 😂😂 https://t.co/3kh18Puk54

It’s too bad there’s not something like a distance throwing competition where we could settle this debate once and for all.
