He got 613 yards after catch and 870 came through the air. 2 at dallas, 2 at the 49ers (down the sideline and 30yard td), etc. he did get a lot of yards in chunks. In NY he had a 1100 yard season, so i'd imagine the stronger arm here helped him get that extra yardage. It seemed like we threw 400 screens, but he got downfield more than anyone (including smith and the other moss). 24 20+ and 10 40+ yard gains this year, vs 17 and 5 with the jets.
