 No touchdowns for the big 5 wide receivers last week. This may have been partly due to weather, girlfriends, who knows... Still four receivers are on pace to beat last year's receiving yards leader and four are on pace to top last year's receiving touchdown leader. Expect much higher touchdown and receiving yard leaders compared to Terrell Owens' 13 touchdowns and Chad Johnson's 1,366 receiving yards last year. By Gath Gregor.

With two games left, there is still time to chase records and compete for top receiving touchdowns and yards in 2007. Randy Moss and Terrell Owens have already ensured that this is the Year of the Wide Receiver. The NFL record for touchdowns in a single season is certainly in jeapordy. Jerry Rice caught 22 touchdown passes in 1987 and Moss is still on pace for 23. All he has to do is turn it on in the final weeks to tie the record, or he might catch four this weekend against the Dolphins. I am not sure about Brady and Moss in the first round next year but other than LaDainian Tomlinson, Adrian Peterson, Brian Westbrook and Joseph Addai, are you really going to select a running back ahead of them.
