And by “slightly”, we mean “extremely”. Having Peyton Manning throwing to you equates to touchdowns. Touchdowns equate to lots of money (usually). Eric Decker is a solid wide receiver, but having a quarterback helps. Great for Decker to get his money…but good luck getting those “W’s”.
Jets announced deal with former Broncos WR Eric Decker.

Did anyone tell Decker that Revis signed with the Patriots today? That’s two games a year where we can expect a decline in Decker’s production. Then again, who knows…maybe Decker proves us wrong. He did that all four years in college while being the only receiving threat at Minnesota…versus Big Ten defenses.
The good news for Decker (besides the money), this guy may be throwing to him…
