SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

Patterson said his receiving totals are nowhere near where he wanted them to be right now. So where exactly are his numbers? Patterson ranks 93rd in the NFL in receiving yards with 332 on 28 receptions. Among those ahead of him on the list are a receiver who was lost for the season in Week 6 (Victor Cruz), a backup running back (Roy Helu), a backup tight end (Niles Paul), an undrafted rookie (Allen Hurns) and literally some guy I had never heard of before today (Taylor Gabriel).
