The reason they're throwing at Rogers is because
1) HE is not a number 1 corner...
2) He's guarding their best receiver.
It makes total sense why they aren't throwing to their lesser receivers, because they can throw to their best one... duh..

Actually I'll follow your advice and argue with the numbers. Those numbers don't mean anything. The league changes every year... teams get better... teams get worse. I'm positive a team has been ranked high, improved, and the following year was ranked lower. The line of reasoning is flawed. Those numbers should be used as a guideline, and not a rule. Especially when your talking about 5 or 6 places.
