Insane Miles' stat.

[InmanRoshi]

Lloyd has never been a consistent player, but going back to his days in SF, he's made some of the most amazing catches imaginable.

Yep. Lloyd was always a great talent, but a huge prima donna who didn't do the dirty work. I guess watching his football mortality flash before his eyes the past couple of years woke him up a little bit.

I would take him at 20th in the league if we were 3-1

Why? One does not have real bearing on the other. Miles Austin would very likely have his same numbers along with the team enjoying a 3-1 (or better) record if not for stupid team mistakes involving primarily player miscues and penalties.

#1 in YPG. How about Lloyd....dude is saving my fantasy season. (I have him and Miles)

Me too! I picked up Lloyd in both of my leagues. The WRs in the league with Miles and Lloyd on my team are saving me. If you end up winning this year, you'll always remember that pick-up. I won both of my leagues a few years ago and Cotchery was that guy for me. You never forget it.

On to the main topic. The guy's name should be Miles Awesome. You've gotta love him.

Buy cheap, sell high. Time to trade Lloyd for a solid contributor. He is going to tank big time. No way he can keep up his current pace.

What's also amazing about Austin is he racks up these accumulative totals without being force fed targets or requiring that the offense be funneled through him. The Cowboys only target him on 23% of their pass attempts, only 19th most among NFL receivers and tight ends.

Austin would put up mind boggling stats if the Cowboys force fed him targets and receptions the way Arizona does Fitzgerald (34% of their pass attempts) Atlanta does Roddy White (33% of their pass attempts), Miami does Brandon Marhsall (33% of their pass attempts) or the way Cincy does TO (31% of their pass attempts).

That's what I love about Miles and what makes him unique from a lot of other #1 WRs .. he can just get his production within the flow of the offense without having to stop everything down and force things so "Miles can get his". I hate the Antoine Walker types of WRs ... guys who get 22 points at the end of the night, but jacked up 11 for 32 shooting to get there.

To expand on this, if you gave Miles 33% of our pass attempts, he'd have 58 pass attempts. Let's assume he's half as productive with those additional pass attempts as he is with the first 41 pass attempts.

That would put him at 606 yards through four games, or roughly on pace for 2426 yards in a season.

Maybe not, but McDaniels seems content to throw a billion times a game, and if Lloyd gets me a garbage time TD every other game that is just gravy.

 

[T-RO]

All the guys in front of Miles have played an extra game (don't know if that's been mentioned).

He's really the league leader.

 

[chuffly]

He's also posting 11.65 Yards Per Target (based on the numbers pulled from Football Outsiders). Quite frankly, that's just absurd.

I hope people really appreciate the production this guy has given us in the year's worth of games he's started.

Mentioned it.


I honestly can't believe how people were thinking it was possible for him to bust, his skill set is outstanding and hes a non-diva. my Miles is the #1 WR in the game by the end of the year prediction is looking like it'll become universally accepted.

 

[tko112204]

That's great but I want wins.

:cry2:

So no one can talk about anything positive because we're 1-3.

Got it.

Imagine when Dez comes along.

It's going to be a constant destruction of 88 & 19 all season long. Romo might throw for 5000 yards when that happens with TWO 1000-yard, 10-TD guys.

Right now Roy is on pace for 1172 yards. So it might happen this year.

Look to next year to get the full benefit...

It could be wicked...

More like a 1500 yard, 14 td guy, and a 1000 yard 10td guy.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Top 3 in the game in my opinion...

 

[InmanRoshi]

It was a forgone conclusion that Roy was getting released at the end of the year ... now it looks like this WR trio could be around for a little while. You've already paid Roy his guaranteed money, no need to cut him just for the sake of cutting him now that the lightbulb has appeared to turn on and he's getting a connection with Romo.

 

[Cowboy Brian]

Top 3 in the game in my opinion...

Unless your ranking him #1 your being an anti-homer. He's proved he is clutch, dominant and a playmaker. He gets YAC consistently

Andre Johnson is still the best WR in the game to me...

Since Miles has been the starter, week 5 last year, every stat says differently.

Dude I have my opinion and you have yours... That's the beauty of it!

You have to remember that anytime a sport celebrity's little buddy appears on a text message leaked to the internet, R2A can conclusively determine without a second glance whether or not it belonged to Miles.
