Johnny Knox on pace for Best Bears receiving season since 2002

Johnny Knox: 740 Yards through 11 games, on pace for 1076 yards, most since Marty Booker had 1190 in 2002

The dude has 13 catches this season over 20 yards - Only 3 guys have 15 or more (Brandon Lloyd, Mike Wallace & Hakeem Nicks) 9th in the NFC in receiving yards & an 18.5 YPC - 18.5 YPC is good for 3rd in the NFL behind Anthony Armstrong & Desean Jackson

Plus the dude is 24 years old only in his 2nd year in the league. ROTY candidate last year & Top 10 NFC receiver this year

I really find it strange how few people realize how much this guy is racking up. Consistent every week. Very reliable

Chicago has it's first legitimate #1 Wide Receiver in 8 years

Imagine what happens when the wr's master the entire system and the productivity that can be achieved if the line continues to improve! :18_1_205:

I will agree that Bennett seems to be the safest choice for the Bears, despite his lack of stats. With that said, Johnny's my favorite wr, and that'd be awesome if he had a massive improvement these next few weeks to make the pro bowl.

He's a big play threat but I can't say he is consistent. His route running needs work.

Considering that he was the 5th round choice we picked up in the Cutler trade and given Cutler's improvements of late versus Kyle Orton's inability to create anything but personal passing stats, that trade is looking better every week that goes by.

Oh that trade debate is closed now. They blew their draft picks.

Johnny Knox is probably the most dynamic WR the Bears have had since Willie Gault, IMO.

This will be something to look forward to in the near future as well as next season.

It seems like with each game our WRs are getting more comfortable with their routes.

Knox and Hester sure are fun to watch!

Isn't it nice to see Knox come down with the ball when we need it? Reminds me of Hines Ward.

If he has Ward's 'toughness' remains to be seen, but I'm a fan...

I'd say Johnny Knox is probably faster than Hines Ward. Probably. He's not as tall as Ward, but he's faster and quicker out there.
