"He also had 12 pass completions of more than 40 yards. That's more than Stanford's Andrew Luck." So can all the people who say that Denard can't throw it more than 20 yards downfield please STFU now?

20+ yards pass but it's the consistency and accuracy that is killing Michigan fans including me.  There were so many plays that could've been a TD if Denard was a touch more accurate.  Good thing is he'll get better in that department.

...remembering Denard's first play as a freshman (with all of 3 weeks of practice to learn the playbook) where he fumbled the snap then picked the ball up and ran for something like an 80 yard TD.

With that in mind, I think it's safe to say that Denard is explosive no matter what is going on around him.

on another note, Blackmon is unreal. There is simply no way that he can top the season he just had. Pretty sure his records will stand for years to come.

What's scary is how much better he will get. Look at last year vs. This year (granted we didn't see a ton of denard in 2009). Less touches, less injuries coming year and even more effective touches. He will be even more dangerous when defenses don't know the two plays in our playbook (qb power left, qb power right).

"A big question with Robinson is how the new Michigan staff will make use of his talents"

Not a big question to me.  The staff will use Denard's talents to explode and destroy tOSU, MSU, PSU, Nebraska, Iowa, and Wisconsin.  Also a few other teams. 

Next question please.
