I can't speak on the 1st downs because that can be dependent on the situation. I don't see how anyone can say two more catches and on more TD are "terrible numbers" when tempered with the fact that AJ is a top receiver and Boyd was a rookie. 

I thought Boyd had a solid rookie season, and could've had a better one if we'd been on the same page on offense.

AJ Green not only missed essentially 7 games, it was also the worst season of his career from a red zone/TD standpoint. So we should consider that.

They both had terrible numbers. 1 or 2 TDs for a WR just isn't a good number. We should just admit the kid needs to improve in that area and move on. Maybe his 2nd year will yield better results, especially with more weapons around him. Don't forget it's also Zampese's 2nd year, and if he's anything like Hue, we should see a massive leap in year 2 of his offense. Particularly in the red zone (we struggled in the RZ under Hue in year 1 as well).
