Marvin Harrison is not your typical wide receiver. Harrison does not have a gold Mohawk or gold grill. He doesn't boast or perform choreographed touchdown dances. Nor does he overdose on pills. Harrison is a rare breed in a position that breeds outlandish personalities. It is easy to miss Harrison.
Especially when he disappears in the big game.
Gomer and Tony Dungy get a lot of heat for losing the big game, but realize that Harrison has done his fair share of going Copperfield in the big game.
Harrison has averaged just over 3 receptions for 46 yards and 0 touchdowns during his last six playoff games.
2006
Championship Game: 4 receptions, 41 yards, 0 TDs.
Divisional Playoff Game: 4 receptions, 45 yards, 0 TDs.
Wild Card: 2 receptions, 48 yards, 0 TDs.
2005
Divisional Playoff Game: 3 receptions, 52 yards, 0 TDs.
2004
Divisional Playoff Game: 5 receptions, 44 yards, 0 TDs.
Wild Card: 4 receptions, 50 yards, 0 TDs.
(And sports writers want to compare him to Jerry Rice. Harrison is more like Tim Brown.) When it comes to a team of chokers, you have to figure that Harrison stands the highest on the whole team.
