Apparently, Miles Austin is no one year wonder. He's no flash in the pan. After 2 weeks into the 2010-2011 season, Miles leads the NFL in receiving yards. So far, Miles has 288 yards. The closest receiver thus far is Chad Ochocinco.
What makes Miles so successful? For starters, perfect technique and routes. Miles catches the ball away from his body right out of the air. He also runs great routes so that Tony Romo can rest assured that he won't have to worry about being picked off.
Also, if you notice, Miles has extremely thick legs. His legs are very similar to that of an NFL Running Back. This gives him great center of gravity enabling him to make sharp cuts without having to worry about toppling over. T.O. (Terrell Owens) is the opposite. TO is top-heavy, meaning that he has a hard time getting in and out of cuts without losing balance. Miles' legs also enable him to break a lot of arm tackles as well.
