Their career YPC averages are equal at 4.3ypc and Reggie is definetely a slightly better receiver.

Wouldn't surprise me if they did just that to decoy the Lions' defense for a series or two before they figure out he's just running routes.

Payton be tricky.

Kind of like on Josh Hills long touchdown pass; Graham ran the out and cleared the safety and corner, Hill hit the seam for the easy touchdown...
