The Facts:
Johnson confirmed he’s the best receiver in the NFL by coming within seven yards of the single-game receiving record in Sunday's win over the Cowboys. With 329 yards on 14 catches, Johnson provided the biggest single-game performance since former Rams receiver Flipper Anderson on November 26, 1989.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Anderson set the record with 336. Johnson finished second, besting Stephone Paige’s 309-yard game from 1985. Johnson now has 829 yards in seven games this year, which puts him behind the pace necessary to match his single-season mark of 1,964 set last year. For his career, Johnson now has 8,657 receiving yards — which still puts him very far behind Jerry Rice, who retired with 22,895.
