Ok, I’m a little annoyed with this silly argument about who has better receivers or a better passing game, with the only distinction that their players are named White and Jones and the fact they had more targets.
Since we are a rushing team (TOT: 404 Pass/att, 536 Run/att) as opposed to ATL (TOT: 615 Pass, 378 Run/att) it’s natural the totals are going to be skewed. But let’s look at our receiving core and see how they match up:
[tdo=11]SEA-ATL WR#1[/tdo]
[tdo=11]SEA-ATL WR#2[/tdo]
[tdo=11]SEA-ATL WR#3[/tdo]
[tdo=11]SEA-ATL TE#1[/tdo]
[tdo=11]SEA-ATL RB#1[/tdo]
The point being we have just as an effective receiving core as Atlanta does when you take away statistics that are skewed by how often the two teams Pass/Run.
