More importantly, he broke the Madden curse.
Eehhh, the Madden Curse comes in many different forms. No playoffs, terrible team, low TD totals. Its still up for discussion.
Does it matter to you that Calvin Johnson only has 5 TDs

nah
people need to stop trying to take away from megatron getting this record.
different era blah blah.. talking like multiple receivers are even coming close to breaking the record.
nahhhhhh, it's just calvin.
passing has really taken off in the past 5 years.. so in the top 10 single season receiving yards leaders, how many players achieved their totals in the past 5 years?
just calvin.. twice. last year and this year.
THREE different receivers from 95 made the list, the year that rice set the record. teams were still throwing back then.
stop trying to diminish the record and just enjoy watching greatness.
revis would shut him down though.

When they are in the Red Zone and sometimes even when they are not, teams put two guys on him at the line of scrimmage like a gunner on punt coverage. Nobody else has to deal with that like he does.
That is why he doesn't have more TDs.

The pass ratio has remained above 54 percent since 1991. While many think the pass has really gone up dramatically in recent years, it is just not true.
During the 1994-96 seasons, teams threw the ball on 56.4 percent of all offensive plays.
During the 2009-11 seasons, teams threw the ball on 56.8 percent of all offensive plays.
The 2011 season (57.1% pass) saw huge passing numbers, but in terms of playcalling, it still trails the 1995 season (57.4% pass), which was the pass-happiest season in NFL history. Even the standard deviation in pass ratio for those seasons is close, with 4.51 for 1995, and 4.55 for 2011.
There was not a single team in 1995 that ran the ball more than they passed. Three teams last season Houston, San Francisco and Denver each ran more than they passed

So you're going to steal other people's shyt and pass it off as your own?
Most of the time in the redzone they can't look at Megatron now...he's usually well covered and Stafford has to look to other people.
Don't see how this many yards takes away from him. He may not be getting in the endzone as much as he did last year but Stafford isn't performing nearly as well either. Plus these yards get them into the endzone...that in itself is something a WR is supposed to be able to do as well.

I read that too, but it wasn't 6
I'm sure his fantasy owners could school us
Mayhem is right...it was six times, I had him in FF
They did it to Victory Cruz
Yeah, once. Calvin has two guys lined up on him every time they are deep in the red zone.

Like dudes have said, he was tackled at the 1 on six different occasions. I think there were 2-3 different times where he was tackled at the 2 yard line also.
The coverage Megatron would get at the goal line is unlike anything I've ever seen before. It's not like they were rolling a safety to his side, like dude said, he had two guys lined up on him from the jump like a gunner. shyt was hilarious to watch.
