FOREVER See they are going to be the second coming. No one wants to explore looking into picking up a Vet in FA cause some want these two to shine. but they have no plan in case they don't.

Don't get me wrong I think both will be special in this league and will do great things. My only concern is I don't think it will be with us. Why? cause some are already wanting to can them, others think this yr they will break it out and my doubts are more towards the WR's coach. He has done nothing with WR's since he's been here but for some reason this yr he's going to decide to step it up and develope two WR's. Heck in CJ's first yr he had 28 REC, for 329 yrds, and 1 TD. In his second yr he did better he got 69 REC, for 1,116 yrds, and 5 TD's and after those two yrs he has had no less then 10 TD's a yr.

T.O. in his first yr had 35 REC, for 520 yrds, and 4 TD's. In his second yr he had 60 REC, for 936 yrds, and 8 TD's. Since then he has had only two yrs of less then 1,000 yrds.

I'll eat crow if both Kelly and Thomas step out and get 5 TD's a piece, but I doubt it. They hardley played their first yr had maybe one catch or two and very little yardage. I sorta count this yr as their first yr if you are going to measure them up against the best. So expect to see any where from 20 to 40 REC, about 400yrds a piece if that and perhaps 2-4 TD's each.
