Cordarrelle Patterson

Teddy Bridgewater, Cordarrelle Patterson work on connecting

Poor timing, miscommunication and imprecision are preventing Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater and wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson from forging a more productive pitch-and-catch relationship.

Coach Mike Zimmer did not reveal trade secrets Monday when asked about Patterson being targeted seven times but only hauling in one catch in Minnesota's 29-26 victory over Washington.

The dude clearly is not on the same page.

"Yes. I'll leave it at that," Zimmer said.

Bridgewater zipped a short pass high through Patterson's hands on the first drive, then overthrew him the next series on a deep ball that would have resulted in an easy touchdown had they been in sync.

"It's nothing between the two; it's they're not precise enough," Zimmer added. "We'd love for (Patterson) to be involved but ... guys have to make sure that they're in the right places more."

Fantasy Impact: 

It's been a frustrating season for Patterson owners who likely spent a pretty nice draft pick on Patterson back in summer. Patterson and Bridgewater have a chance to become a formidable duo, but there's still a bit of a question as to when that will be. Patterson has begun to hit the waiver wire and while he showed some signs of life Week 7 and 8, in Week 9 vs. Washington he had just one catch for nine yards.

Kyle Rudolph eyes Week 11 return

Kyle Rudolph is ramping up his rehabilitation from hernia surgery and targeting the team's next game, Nov. 16 at Chicago, for his return.

"That's my goal," Rudolph said after Sunday's 29-26 victory over Washington. "I've got to get myself in football shape. In my mind, I have two weeks to get ready so I'm going to do everything I can to get out there then."

Regaining the former Pro Bowler can only help Minnesota's offense and rookie quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.

Fantasy Impact: 

Surgeons on Sept. 25 re-attached Rudolph's abdominal muscles to his pelvic bone after he aggravated a nagging core injury in a Week 3 loss at New Orleans, the story said. The injury started bothering him the first week of training camp in early August. Rudolph and the training staff tried managing the initial tear to avoid surgery. Rudolph was drafted as a low-end TE1 but never really took off likely due to the injury. It will remain to be seen if he can get back to that value.

Cordarrelle Patterson: 'I don't feel like I'm 100 percent'

Vikings wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson said he wasn’t feeling 100 percent, dealing with a lingering left hip injury in the 17-3 loss against the Lions on Sunday.

Patterson rotated with wide receiver Charles Johnson on drives to remain fresh. It didn’t appear that Patterson needed to be attended to on the sideline with the injury, but he didn’t remain on the field throughout the game.

“I don’t feel like I’m 100 percent,” Patterson said. “I should be next week. Just keep getting treatment and keep grinding in treatment and do what it takes.”

Patterson initially injured the hip last week against the Packers, missing most of the second half in the 42-10 loss.

Patterson waived off Johnson midway through the fourth quarter on the Vikings only scoring drive – a 40-yard field goal from kicker Blair Walsh. On the 11-play, 45 yard drive, Patterson had first catch in the game and wanted to stay in with the adrenaline flowing. He finished with two catches for 15 yards on eight targets and one carry, a halfback toss, for two yards.

“I’m going to be out there,” Patterson said. “I don’t feel like I need to let my teammates down. Thursday, I sat out the whole second half. I can’t let that happen again.”

Fantasy Impact: 

It's been a struggle for Patterson owners this year who feel like they need to keep putting him in their lineups after likely spending a pretty nice pick on him in drafts. In his defense, it was a tough matchup against a very good Lions defense that was putting the pressure on rookie QB Teddy Bridgewater. The good news is things get a little easier for Bridgewater, Patterson and the rest of the Vikes with three friendly matchups right up to the Week 10 bye.

Bridgewater: Team will 'find different ways' to get Cordarrelle Patterson the ball

Vikings beat writer Ben Goessling: Cordarrelle Patterson is continuing to develop as a receiver, coach Mike Zimmer said, even though he had only two catches last week and has seen his numbers lag as defenses pay more attention to him. But the Vikings could look to get Patterson involved again in the running game after giving him just one carry since Week 1. Patterson ran for a 50-yard touchdown when the Vikings last saw the Lions in December, and quarterback Teddy Bridgewater said the Vikings are "going to find different ways to get [Patterson] touches."

Fantasy Impact: 

The easiest way to get Patterson the ball is to hand it to him, which is something that the Vikings have (curiously) moved away from after Adrian Peterson left the team. We may see the Vikings revisit their Patterson strategy in Week 6, but we're in we'll-believe-it-when-we-see-it mode.
