He got hurt. He was really good for the first 4 games of the season.

Outside of week 3 he didn't do very much.

week 1: 2-26
week 2: 5-66
week 3: 6-124-1
week 4: 2-33

The rest of this season looked like this:

week 11: 2-17
week 12: 1-3
week 13: 1-24
week 15: 2-21
week 16: 1-16
week 17: 4-34-1

Looked up the stats and you're right that he was injured and out for 5 games in the middle of the season. He had one good game 3 against TBay (6 catches, 124 yards) and a 5 catch, 66 yard game against Carolina in game 2, and a 4 catch, 34 yard game in the final game of the season against Houston. Other than those three games he didn't catch more than two balls or get more than 33 yards in his other 8 games.

I think freddyg12's assessment is dead on.

Yeah, I had it in my head that he played better than that. Although, for the record let me clarify that I was not arguing he's a good player.

Lol u weren't only one.. I saw some Bears game last season, and I always see Lloyd in the game whenever I watch it.. So I guess we all gotta watch the whole season to know whether if a player is good or not

I guess it tells youn have bad the bears WR corps was with Lloyd playing alot. Oh i forgot that got a make shift WR in Devin Hester who was the best Return man in football. The word for B. Lloyd is soft.
