Mike Wallace is not going to deny his infatuation with running deep routes.

Very good point.

2000 yards? Good luck with that Wallace. I appreciate his enthusiasm, but I just don't see that happening with out Ben being sacked 60 times.

Wallace's goal is to be the first receiver to surpass 2,000 yards in a season. Hall of Famer Jerry Rice (1,848) holds the record.


that's nice, but I'd rather hear his goal is to be super bowl mvp

heck, I'm satisfied with hearing super bowl ring :)
