Will We See A New Team Receiving Record This Year? (1 Viewer)

[Anarchy99]

I posted similar threads on individual team passing and rushing records. Now on to receiving yards. Given the influx of passing in recent seasons, it's not surprising we saw the Chiefs, Saints, and Buccaneers crown a new leader in single season receiving yards last year. Hill, Thomas, and Evans are clearly in the mix to pass their new records. For trivia purposes, of the three threads on individual season team yardage records in a season, I believe Brandon Marshall is the only player to hold a record for two franchises.

There are some teams with some low yardage records. Antonio Brown looks like a really good candidate to set a new high watermark for OAK. Lots of teams with some pretty long standing team records. Even though the Ravens are last on the list, I don't see a receiving candidate from Baltimore (or a passing QB there) to make this one a reality. Lots of teams with guys at least in the mix (Eagles, Packers, Bengals for example in addition to those already mentioned).

Expect Robert Foster to set a new mark in Buffalo.

Hopkins came really close to Andre Johnson's numbers last year(finished with 1572, Andre had 1598).  He'd be a solid bet.

Also, if Beckham plays the full year, it wouldn't shock me to see him pass Gordon's numbers.

Marshall holds 2 different team's records.  Crazy.

Could certainly see Michael Thomas breaking his own record, could also see Antonio Brown breaking Tim Brown's record. Davante Adams could also make another run at Jordy's record, which he'd have likely broken last year of he'd not sat out week 17.

I give Lockett and Seattle a puncher's chance.
