Knockin' on Valhalla's Door

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson set a new career record on Sunday with his ninth kick return for a touchdown, breaking a tie with Josh Cribbs and Leon Washington.

The do-it-all weapon's record-breaking play came on a 103-yarder against the Bears. It was an electric return in which Patterson split Chicago's coverage, racing through the middle of the field for a score that more than made up for his fumble earlier in the game.

Patterson's touchdown was his seventh score of 100-plus yards, per NFL Research. No one else in league history has scored more than three.

If only Patterson could PR too. He might've beat Hester's return records.

He's a one-trick pony, but he's pretty good at that one trick.  Hester himself should have stayed at DB...he probably would have been a good all-around player then.  His biggest mistake was moving to WR.

If Laquan Treadwell was a cat, he'd be on life 7 or 8 by now.  Seems as if he's been called up by the Seahawks off the practice squad, with a good chance to see action this week.  Is Seattle where his career lives up to his draft pick status?

Pete Carroll: “Anxious to see what Treadwell does when he gets a chance. He hasn’t had a shot to do much, but we’ll see how he fits in. He seems to be very well-equipped, he seems like a pro. He runs his routes really crisply. He’s really attentive about doing a number of things. He can play different positions for us. He’s big catching the football. He looks like one of our guys and fits in very well.”

I hope he carves out a role somewhere. Treadwell always seemed like a good guy. Lots of guys fail to live up to their draft status but still make nice careers for themselves.

The Broncos designated running back Mike Boone to return from injured reserve, the team announced Wednesday. Boone now is eligible to practice with the team, opening a 21-day window for his return to the active roster.

The Broncos placed Boone on injured reserve Oct. 24 after he injured an ankle in the game against the Jets.

Boone has 15 carries for 82 yards and six catches for 61 yards in seven appearances this season.

Zim will be incredible as a college DC if he can dial back the yelling and old-school approach. That will not connect with those college kids at all.

Didn’t his defense regularly get gashed by RPO and mobile QBs, isn’t that basically what college is. Haven’t followed college football in years so I could be making an incorrect judgement here.
