Chris Chambers - WR, Miami Dolphins 12/1/2006
Miami WR Chris Chambers is growing more and more frustrated with his role in the Dolphin offense. He's gone 14 consecutive games without gaining 100 yards. "I still think we've got a ways to go as fas as taking a couple more shots down the field," Chambers said. "Right now we're more of a receiver by committee. We've got a chance for three or four guys to be over 50 catches. Everybody is just playing their role. I would like to get going and get my rhythm together as well."
