There were two of them.

He's sixth on the chart according to how often he is used and his
production.
Use your eyes and your brain. Remember your brain, Dave?

You obviously don't watch the game Dave. This is painfully apparent in
any discussion with you. Sam had seven pass attempts come his way and
he caught two for 19 yards. The point is not the ugly QB play of
Cassel and to a lesser degree Flutie, but the fact that he gets open
and involved in the offense. Bethel disappears both on the field and
in the box score. Johnson had all of two catches (2-17) be consistent
with your "logic" Dave, he showed less than anyone. Sam was the
preferred target, and was more involved in the offense.

You failed to answer that adequately. Sorry.
