The Arizona Cardinals just did something awesome...

[55]

They now have three 1,000 yard receivers in the same season.

Larry Fitzgerald - 96 receptions for 1,431 yards and 12 TDs

Anquan Boldin - 89 receptions for 1,038 yards and 11 TDs

Steve Breaston - 77 receptions for 1,006 yards and 3 TDs

I think the only other time that was done was back on one of the Warren Moon led Oilers' teams about twenty years ago. Hats off to the Cards.

Steve Breaston is a legit number 2 in preety much any team...

[Double Eights]

That's a pretty cool stat. Congrats to them.

Nice to see Steve doing well. Always liked him.

I'm pretty sure the Colts had three 1000 yard receivers at one point (Stokley, Harrison, Wayne) in '04 or '05.

Either way, amazing stat.

I agree. Once he gets another year or two under his belt he'll be a great receiver. If Boldin really does leave, I guess it won't be like they don't have a solid #2 threat.

Yep, they did it in 2004. Still only the third time ever.

Yep '04. Maybe Denver can get that with Marshall, Royal and Scheffler at some point

That's pretty cool. Thanks for mentioning it, I didn't even know they were close.



While on the subject of cool teammate stats, Derrick Ward and Brandon Jacobs became only the fourth pair of teammates to top 1,000 yards rushing in a season.
