    Congratulations to Antonio Brown 1,834 receiving yard in 2015. Who would have ever guessed the only player able to stop him and prevent him from hitting 2,000 yards was Michael Vick! Many CBs tried, but only Michael Vick was able to accomplish what others have failed to do.

    Convert Vick to a DB and get rid of Blake!

    It may not have been a great game, but he still had 6 receptions for 51 yards. Brown may not have been as damaging to a defense as he usually is, but wasn't completely shut down.

    Brown came in 2nd in stats to Jones from Atlanta. Both had the same number of receptions and Jones had 30 more yards. Both very talented receivers

    Also, I guess we had 450 passing yards on that game. So, Brown taking Sherman away and drawing attention on double coverage was a success, from any point of view.
    Yes, the only one to stop him was Vick, and Haley with a conservative approach during that span when Ben was out.
