In fact, it''s petulant No. 3 man Antonio Bryant who has been a receiving mainstay on the stat sheet, catching a pass in every game -- all while continuing to complain about his limited role in the offense.
Individually, these facts wouldn''t normally be the key ingredients to one of the league''s most explosive pass offenses.
