UM QB Patterson suggests fans 'relax a little bit'

Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson understands there was criticism of the offense after the opening season loss at Notre Dame but said fans should be patient.

The Wolverines rebounded from the 24-17 loss with a rout of overmatched Western Michigan and faces Southern Methodist University, which has given up an average 44 points the first two games, on Saturday.

Patterson was asked about the criticism during an appearance Wednesday morning on 97.1 The Ticket’s “Jamie and Stoney” show. Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh typically appears weekly on the show.

“Everybody just needs to relax a little bit,” Patterson said.
