FalconOdense Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I know it is almost illegal to post a positive post on this message board, but at the moment we have 3 players in the top 18 of receiving yards in the NFL.I know it is "just" yards, but I actually think that is impressive.5. Roddy White - 54 catches - 823 yards11. Julio Jones - 44 catches - 703 yards18. Tony Gonzalez - 61 catches - 617 yards.On this top 18 there are actually players who has played more games like13. Percy HarvinIf they continue this stretch we will have 3 1000 yard receivers.Roddy White - 96 catches - 1463 yardsJulio Jone - 78 catches - 1249 yardsTony Gonzalez - 108 catches - 1097 yards.What is the record in the NFL for three receivers on the same team?

FalconsIn2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 And Ryan is now on pace for about 4,950 yards. Safe to say he's come into his own this year. Though if I'm being honest, I wish he put more zip on that 4th down pass to Roddy in the end zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMT11 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 i think we could easliy have 3 1200 yard recievers - esp if the run game does not step up, but 3 1000 has been done only 5 times in the past, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
