              I look it up and Haven had the most yards but Riley Odoms had more catches. My memory was not that bad, just my understanding of the question.

                  It was Tight End Riley Odoms. He had 37 receptions that year. That seems like a very low number to me.

                  I need to share the love before hitting you again.

                    No worries. It does seem low doesn't it?

                      As a team, we had 163 total receptions that year and they were spread out amongst the offense.

                      Haven Moses was 2nd with 27 catches and Jack Dolbin had 26. There were a total of 12 players that caught passes that year including kicker Jim Turner who had a grab. Must have been a fake.

                        Ya, I remember that catch by Turner. No one was even around him running to the end zone. He always looked kind of funny in those high top black shoes.

                          What makes this even better is, it was against the Raiders.

                            Today's Fun Fact:

                            In 12 seasons with the Broncos beginning in 1983, linebacker Karl Mecklenburg was in on an amazing 1,145 tackles.

                            We all sure loved him didn't we?

                              Karl was a great player. He belongs in the HOF.

                              How many All-Pro teams was he selected to anyway?
