Higgins............65%......................................65.7 yds......................................0.082
Boyd................68%......................................53.2 yds......................................0.065
Chad and company caught 56.3 of the balls thrown their way for 149.3 yds per game
Chase and company catch 65.3% of balls thrown their way for....204.0 yds per game
Henry does have elite % of TD's per catches, but missed 49% of the passes thrown his way and only averaged 33 yds per game played.
Have fond memories of all these WR's listed, but todays group is more professional, more productive, and more consistent, and much better blockers imo. Thats no knock on the others though because they were great as well, just not as great.
You're looking at career averages and not the time that they actually played together. More specifically, like Essex said, 2005 and 2006 since after that Henry missed a lot of time. Plus our current trio has only been together 1.5 years so far.
I do think our current trio is better but I think that's largely because Higgins is a lot better than Henry. TJ at that point of his career was as good or better than Boyd is currently. Chad at that point of his career was as good as Chase is now.
Chad and TJ were a lot farther into their career than Chase and Higgins though.
