I think he sucks. I don't blame last week's idiocy on him. That was a dumb call and Sheppard fumbled a ball that was perfectly handed off by Page....but that kid is good for a bonehead play in just about every single game. I don't see the upside. Kinda reminds me of when everybody got all overly excited about Peanut. I hope we have a better option next year or it'll be three straight seasons with no answer at KR.
"they rank 10th in both kick return average (25.2) and punt return average (10.9)." I think that says you are wrong.
Has he gotten into the end zone yet? A lot of the average return stuff is due to blocking and scheme. The real good returners are the ones who make that final move and get in the end zone. Page is slow and doesn't break tackles.And Clifton Smith was a probowl returner so saying he sucked too is just dumb. Damn shame what that Panther POS did to him.
Im not saying the guy is some great return guy.. Im simply saying he doesnt "SUCK"...If he sucked, they would be ranked much lower methinks.

This is just ridiculous. Page has come pretty close to breaking it a couple of times. The problem with Page isn't what he does with the ball in his hands, it's what he does before it gets there -- stupid decisions. Even the best returners only rarely get into the end zone. Page is a good returner, much better than average. Not everyone is Devin Hester in his prime.
Page is one of the worst players on this team and hopefully he is cut. Rainey and Demps are better return options. Remember what Rainey did to the Bucs in preseason and everyone gave Dominik credit for scouting the guy? Page is slow, drops the ball and makes terrible decisions. Everything you don't want in a returner.
