SI's NFL Breakout Players for 2005: Steven Jackson, Kevin Curtis

Click.

Hit "Next" twice to see Steven Jackson. Nothing too revealing, but kudos to SI.com. :ramlogo:

Nice to see two Rams on the list. Hopefully Hargrove will also have a break-out year in 2005.

Dont forget Torry.This guy is the best wide-out in football.If hes not mauled by triple coverage he'll get 1500 to 1700 yards.thats what I call break out.I could be wrong with kevin coming on real strong,but will depend on the coverage against holt.As a matter of fact we might see 3 WRs get 1000 yards.I wonder if thats been done(I dont think so).With Martz calling the Plays I wouldnt count out anything.

Call me crazy but I'm pretty sure Torry's already had a breakout year.

As for the 3 WR's with 1000 yards thing it happened last year with Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne and Brandon Stokley in Indianapolis.

Jackson will have a monster year if healthy, and all goes plan will our new,improved line........I agree Zig, hargrove is one of my favorite players and I reakon he will have his breakout season opposite Little...keep an eye on him!!!!

hes not done yet.He has to beat Jerry rices best season. :ramlogo:

Ok Zig hold me to a young player:Kevin Curtis is my pick.Hey is that the only time 3 wide-outs have gotten 1000 yrds apiece?last year in Indy?

Two words- BIG BEAR

The big breakout year this year is going to be Jimmy Kennedy. Sure Steven Jackson should have a big year and i guess that counts as a breakout, but jackson was fantastic last year when he played. I view his situation differently because his enhanced productivity this year will be a function of being the Main Man.

Big Bear on the other hand is going to be a huge key in improving our run defense. Watch how much better pickett looks when he has big bear dominating next to him.

ramming speed to all

general counsel

I think it will be a combination of Kennedy and Claiborne. Kennedy healthy for the first time and Claiborne finally playing his natural position. Add Pickett to that mix and our interior front 7 is greatly changed from just two years ago. Size matters all of a sudden and a pair of 320 lb DTs and a 260 lb ILB should be more solid than the featherweights we've thrown out there recently. I'm excited to see Kennedy and Claiborne have their chance to excel.

I agree wholeheartedly with GC on this one. Of all the aforementioned players so far, I believe that Kennedy can make the biggest impact should he have a breakout year. If Kennedy can become disruptive enough to consistently draw doubleteams, there is no question that the entire defense would be "kicked up" a few more notches. Three and outs could become something we expect as opposed to the novelty status of last year.
