I'm pretty sure Tyler Thigpen once had a 300-yard passing game, too. And Derrick Blaylock once scored four touchdowns in one half.

Thomas' two years before Manning arrived:

22 receptions for 283 yards
32 receptions for 551 yards

Thomas' two years after Manning arrived:

94 receptions for 1,434 yards
92 receptions for 1,430 yards

I'll recognize that Thomas was injured a lot his first couple of years, but I detect a pattern in the data above, and it points toward Manning making receivers look great even if they're not.
