Yeah... last year the Pat's gave Patterson 42 rush attempts last year for 5.7 yards per carry...HurricaneBear wrote:The patriots lined him up at rb occassionally and he did surprisngly well. I think it started due to injury but i could be remembering that wrong. Dont think he could be a full time back but several touches a game absolutely. I love this signing. Price isnt the best but its a short deal and he could be very productive here replacing bellamy/mizzell. And his skill as a kr is undeniableramentaschen wrote:I think Patterson may be the best kick returner since Hester so in that aspect this is a big plus.
The Vikings could never turn him into a legitimate WR though and its curious to me that he would be used as an RB???
I'd say the kid can play in the Bears RB rotation a bit as far as I'm concerned.
I wouldn't minimalize Nagys ability to creatively use his players.

What's the over/under on rush attempts in 2019? 100?
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Given Nagy I'm very hopefully we'll find some good uses for him next year. Around 75% completion percentages for the past three years is nice to have too.
Don't like the contract massively, shocker. At that AAV I would have preferred more team friendly years but I'm quibbling.
