Does it matter to you that Calvin Johnson only has 5 TDs

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
That receiving yards record don't mean shyt to me IMO. Rules changes make the shyt too easy. Rice didn't even care.... But he did care about moss breaking his td record.

Most of those yards didn't contribute to nothing. What Peterson is doing is more significant because he's scoring td's to back up the yards.

wouldn't the rule changes make a record like that easier to get as well?

Rules changes effected everything between the 10 yard lines. even if you get a pass interference in the end zone the ball will still be placed at the 1. It's still hard to score in the redzone which is even more baffling because CJ is like 6'5.


And defenders have routinely given him 10 yard cushions all year. I suspect the lions where simply feeding him the ball no matter what just to give him that record. None of his 5 TD's came in wins

i think i heard a stat where calvin has six catches that landed at the one.

I think it's more than that.

Calvin isn't the reason the team is ass. The coaching staff and Stafford have been the main culprits.

You can talk that hollow numbers shyt, but you can't say he's not doing everything in his power to achieve victories. He also has more yards than Rice on fewer receptions and he still has one more game to play.

In short, he's been a monster and this thread is getting one star. :ufdup:

the team being garbage doesn't really diminish what Megatron is doing.....

When the Lions are getting blown out its not like teams stop covering him. He see's the same ridiculous coverage no matter what the score is. And the Lions barely run anyway so always being behind doesn't really mean they are throwing more than usual. That dude has it harder than any other WR in the league and he's beasting like it's easy.

Rice took five yard slants to the house on a consistent basis.

Why isn't Megatron scoring more? the rules are set for him to get into the end zone. You have QB's throwing for 40+ TD's, you have QB's such as his own throwing for 5,000 yards.

Megatron has three seasons of five TD's or less.
