Then, readjust your stance.

Patten had about the same stats as Simpson while only starting in 14 games. Patten had multiple seasons where he had over 800 yards and 5 TDs (7 TDs was his career high). Simpson is a career backup who has only 8 total TDs and 2000 yards in his 7 year career (4 TDs was his career high). Simpson has only had 2 seasons where he has had 700 or more yards (out of 7 seasons).

Oh and isn't your stance that WR's had a much easier time back then? Or at least that's what you like to say when people like to compare Dalton to Manning and Marino.
