Dos and Diez = Ocho Cinco?

Kevin Curtis barely topped the 1,000 yard receiving mark this year, making him only the second Eagles receiver to go over 1,000 yards during Donovan McNabb’s tenure (and even at that, Curtis got some yards from AJ Feeley’s two and a half games so the actual yardage for McNabb-Curtis is probably under 1,000). That’s two receivers in 10 years.

 

As this website notes, Tom Brady “has played with four 1,000-yard receivers in his career, including two (Randy Moss and Wes Welker) this season… Just to further cement the lack of help McNabb has had in his career, here’s a list of elite quarterbacks and how many 1,000-yard pass catchers they’ve enjoyed since the year 2000:

Peyton Manning, IND: 12 receivers in eight seasons.
Marc Bulger, STL: 9 receivers in six seasons.
Brett Favre, GB: 7 receivers in eight seasons.
Carson Palmer, CIN: 6 receivers in four seasons.
Matt Hasselbeck, SEA: 5 receivers in seven seasons.
Tony Romo, DAL: 4 receivers in two seasons.”

 

The conclusion? Get Chad Johnson. Or at the very least, heed McNabb’s plea for playmaking help.
