44 catches for 626 yards in 10 games.... Not bad for a 6th round choice!

I reminds that Brown had said that he would the steal of the draft!

He, Manny, and Mikey are proving to be quite the group. I hope Manny can get the ball more.

I love watching him play. Plays with a ton of confidence and attitude.

he continues to display RIDICULOUS body control. Just ridiculous. I'm starting to think even better than Santonio in that department.

He is certainly developing nicely. I'm just surprised he hasn't caught a Wallace-like bomb yet with that speed of his.

It's weird.. even when we're in 3rd and 20 I'm pretty much expecting Ben to make a play and find Brown or Wallace for the 1st down. How many teams can say that?

Brown is that strange middle guy between possession receiver and deep threat. He can do both well and REALLY adapts.

Wallace is the legit. Number 1 now, I think, drawing much double coverage. To think, the talent behind those two includes Cotchery who, I just realized today hasn't even hit 30 yet (will next June). He still has a legitimate 6 years left in the league if he stays with us. So, add his talent, which is quite a bit, to that of Brown and the other three... and there's no stopping our WR's.

So true. So different than a couple years ago when a 3rd and 5 felt like 3rd and a mile.

Same here. In fact, I'm more confident in our ability to convert 3rd and 20 than I am in our ability to convert 3rd and 2.

I bet AB is a big reason for that, when that ball is near him it just seems to stick to him.

What's funny about these three posts... though I completely agree with you, is that the best receiver for first downs on our team is forgotten. Go back and look on that list. Number 5, is Mike Wallace. Amazing isn't it, we have two receivers in the top ten for first downs.

Brown is doing a very nice job for us. Can't deny it. He doesn't have the separation speed that Wallace has for that deep run passed everyone play but he has that quickness where he can allude tackles in the open field and then break free and get away from the slower safeties on the field.

Wallace is just a freak with lightning speed.

And once Sanders gets back...Sickening we aren't even playing our best football, we are 7-3, with 2 of those losses coming prior to us actually having an Offensive Line worth a shiiiit.

Brown is Karma paying us back for drafting Limas Sweed.

Just read an article on yahoo that said Antonio Brown is leading the AFC in 3rd down receptions, 18 for 282 yards.

..or it's Karma for the fallout of Santonio Holmes.
