Troy Brown was actually pretty good people are forgetting that he caught 101 and 97 passes the first two years he had Brady as his QB.  Plus both Brown and Branch ended up with over 500 career receptions which is pretty good.

It's as if receivers are highly dependent on their QBs, and great QBs make average receivers look good and good receivers look great.

Even before Brady became a starter Troy Brown's numbers where trending up he caught 83 passes for 944 yard in the 2000 season when Brady only attempted three passes and was one of three for six yards.  The Ravens receiving core is below average to bad even Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Joe Montana or Dan Marino at their prime could not elevate that group of receivers much more then Lamar Jackson.  That being said Lamar Jackson is actually having his best season when it comes to passing the ball his touchdown to interception ratio could be a bit better and his completion percentage could be slightly better also.
