Christian Watson has arrived! _RyanFowler_ on Watson's huge game against the Cowboys and what's still to come. Packers | GoPackGo
Watson hauled in four catches for 103 yards and a trio of touchdowns after entering Week 10 with 10 catches in six prior appearances combined. A unique blazer for his size, Watson is able to win a multitude of ways and was utilized as such in college that averaged a tick over 35 points per game.
Flexed out primarily as the X receiver in the high-flying NDSU offense, what made Watson such an intriguing talent in school showcased itself on Sunday in the number of ways he can provide an impact. All it takes sometimes is for the metaphorical lightbulb to go off. While the fuse has been delayed, Sunday placed a bright spotlight on the production he’s able to have when given the opportunity to flourish on the outside.
A vertically imposing threat where eyes are drawn to him solely for his mold and makeup, Watson’s speed and ability to glide past secondary defenders is a trait unseen from many of today’s pros with a build similar to that of the first-year talent. He glides in open grass. While Dallas looked to bracket him at times working into the second half on Sunday, Watson’s ability to kick into fifth gear to scoot past the secondary drew the attention of Rodgers all afternoon long.
Four catches won’t blow anyone away. But at 27 yards a pop? That’s efficiency and big-play ability in a nutshell. Now, it’s about fine-tuning his game within the tighter areas of the offense. It’s not every week that 75% of your receptions end up in the end zone. Although big plays change the landscape of football games, blossoming into a 10-plus target per game guy for Rodgers remains in the cards as a second-round selection for a Green Bay unit that hopes to remain in the wild-card hunt.
