That wording on that one is a little misleading. :confused:

Wait... how could Brian Quick lead the team with 47 receiving yards if Givens caught a 75 yard TD catch?

Am I missing something?

Sorry, I'm a mathy type...

Givens and Britt both had more yards. Quick did have the most receptions.

Well, I'm dyslexic (truly), mildly, but truly, so when I see something like that I tend to ask because sometimes I'm seeing it wrong and sometimes I catch an error.

the play by Givens is what the rams need from tavon austin. the ability to make a 10 yard pass play into a 75 yard touchdown. still surprised by the lack of anything for austin during the game. the rest of the passing game seems to be way ahead of the running game.
