    Absolutely no doubt about that. Talk was that Eli was nearing the end of his career if something didn't change.

    Marvin Harrison had 143 catches in 2002 (1722 yards, 11 TDs). Easily one of the top 2 or 3 seasons of any receiver in NFL history.

    Over his best 9 game span that season (and including Antonio Brown's last 9 games his remarkable 2014 season):

    Beckham: 81 receptions, 1196 yards, 9 TDs
    Harrison: 85 receptions, 1076 yards, 7 TDs
    Brown: 79 receptions, 979 yards, 8 TDs

    Others
    Jerry Rice 1995: 73 receptions, 1191 yards, 7 TDs
    Calvin Johnson 2012: 81 receptions, 1326 yards, 4 TDs

    Johnson has an impressive span, but I'd take the 9 TDs vs the 4 TDs in lieu of the 130 receiving yards.
