Tony Romo continues to ball in December -- can we please put the narrative to rest?

Odell Beckham Is the Best Rookie Receiver

A couple of weeks ago, there was an argument to be made that ProFootballReference.com, Beckham is the frist rookie wide receiver in NFL history to have at least 75 catches, 1,100 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns (he actually has 79 receptions for 1,120 yards and 11 scores).

He's played in 11 games.

Most compare Beckahm's rookie campaign to Randy Moss'. It's tough to compare generations (it's a pass-friendlier league that favors quarterbacks and passing games more than ever), but just so everyone's aware, Beckham's averaging 2.87 more receptions and 19.75 more yards per game than Moss did in 1998. Moss' 1.06 touchdowns per game does trump Odell's, but there's no question that OBJ's rookie season is one of the -- if not the -- best we've ever seen.
