I posted this back in May. and I still think its true

"... I think the chemistry between Boyd and Hopkins was special. Unique. Hard to come by. Once in a career type connection. Like Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin. The odds of Boyd finding that same chemistry with Sammy are not in their favor. Of course, it it happens, this could be a very special year for us all! But if it doesn't, and Watkins goes for another sub-thousand season, it could be a long year."
This weekend might tell us if that chemistry is there or not. I'm hoping so, but if not, it will absolutely change my expectations for this team.

That's fair. Sammy needs to "replace" Nuke. I think he will.***

....we need a high-level performance in our passing game to have a special season. You'd be 100% correct. I think Sammy will step up, even though I do NOT think he'll break Nuke's records. But he'll give us enough to win, I believe.

You think Sammy will step up??? What on earth is wrong with you people? You do know he's double teamed every snap?
So that leaves others open. We need others to stop dropping the ball period.

"Long year" sounds a bit over the top, but if that's your opinion.

Sammy helped the Tajh-DeAndre tandem a lot last year

The focus on other teams' defenses was on Sammy a lot last year, which helped Tajh and DeAndre get in a groove.

in 2011. "Special" chemistry. We know there was a backslide last year, but there's no reason it can't happen again this year.

Sammy had 10 catches for slightly less than 100 yards against NCSU. Not too shabby when you're the clear #1 receiver hyped by ESPN who every opposing secondary is gunning for.
His TD's aren't there right now, but everything will take care of itself in the long run.
