Guessing the Chargers issues weren't helped that the years when they had their best teams (with LT in his prime, etc) was also the same time when the AFC was all Brady's Pats vs. Manning's Colts, along with AFC North juggernauts Pittsburgh and Baltimore. AFC was stacked during that time...

I remember a few years ago after Stafford's like 40+ TD season there were people talking about how the rise of the passing game to ridiculous levels and Stafford having 50 attempts a game was going to end up with him in the top 10 passing yards all time.

Going to hold off on elite status seeing as how he piled up a decent portion of his stats in 2 games where they were down 40.

I feel like I can't even blame Holtby, Carlson/Orpik pairing was a dumpster fire all over the ice...and it wasn't even mainly Orpik. Odd man rushes left and right. Still, you'd want Holtby to have another of those shots or two.

One thing Ovechkin has always defied everyone's predictions on is his durability. Everyone was convinced with his physical style of play that he'd miss a ton of time in his career. He's never missed more than 4 games in a season save for '09-'10 where he missed 10 (although 4 were due to...

Well, when you go into the 2nd period down 2-1, out shoot them 14-2 in the 2nd period, and enter the 3rd down 4-2...some dumb shit went on.

Hope Holtby and Carlson/Orpik forget all about this game. I guess Holtby ended up with 16 saves, but when Rags went up 5-2 he had allowed 5 on 17 shots. Woof.

Indy just needs to make Luck believe they're down 3 scores the entire game.

I'm sure scoring will come down as the season goes on, but when I checked earlier there was 6 or 7 guys that had played about 10 games already that would be on pace to top 100 points this year. Nice to see the Orpik/Carlson pairing being terrible against the Rags. Pretty nice play by...

Right, this was my read on it. If you're making this deal now for a guy at his age (still elite now, but this isn't a 24 year old who's going to the Pro Bowl for the next 10 years cornerstone LT) while giving up your 1st and 2nd this coming year? It would be an all in knowing this is the only...

Should be noted that 5 of those TD passes came after being down 41-0 to Miami and 42-0 to Atlanta. Not that he hasn't done some good things this year, but if that doesn't qualify as garbage time I don't know what does.

I think that door has already been taken off the hinges for awhile at this point.

We've hit a bare patch, come on J49 we need some more good stuff.

Are you predicting that Cousins will use the rest of the season to blossom into a starter in the league? Or just stating that is the "hope" for him and pointing out that Gabbert isn't in the same place at all (true)?

Grimm, I wasn't saying it was based off the first 12 games this year, I know PP chances are way down since right after the 2004 lockout. I was stating that through 12 games this year, a lot more players are averaging over a point a game than guys did through last season. As you note, only 3...

Made it about 10 times harder than it needed to be

Gano can totally choke this

It was a matter of time. Welcome back shitty Luck.

If Ginn wasn't terrible, this could have been him.

The goalie numbers are a big part of it, as is the PP chances, but I do think 3v3 OT will increase scoring some (I mean, really, how could it not?). Also again, there are a much higher number of players averaging over a point a game right now than there were through last season. Whether that...

Somehow Luck stopped being absolutely terrible to only mildly so. Feel like they've been chucking it up every other play. Could have 6 picks in this game. Of course if they had a true #1 WR they might have won as well. Carolina trying to give it away.

No, they waited until the 7th round in 2012 to take another QB. Skins were smart and grabbed Cousins in the 4th.

And...kickers still suck

Luck should just shut it down for the year. That wasn't even close.

We'll have to see, scoring on the whole seems a little up at the start of this year. Minus guys who have played less than 7 games, there are 31 other skaters averaging over a point a game at the moment. Obviously, small sample size being only about an eighth into the season, but the additional...

Pagano so dumb.

I mean, he's on the ground so as soon as he is contacted to knock the ball loose isn't he being touched down?

At least I can see a little more what the bitch would be on that goal. Letestu does kind of push into Ramo, although it's EXTREMELY light contact. I also don't see how it prevents him from making the save/doing his job. But at least in this case you have a guy skating right into the blue...

Doubting it happens. Freeman certainly is ruining fantasy football all by himself currently, but if Matt Ryan continues to get worse as the season progresses, teams will be able to focus more and more on stopping Freeman.

I just have to point out that they can still go 15-1, and this is coming from the guy who claimed this was the best Cowboys team ever, then after everyone points out that may be...an exaggeration...says everyone knew he meant best team they've had around Romo.

Pats create more match up issues in coverage than GB does in my opinion. They get by on Rodgers and the platoon of decent wideouts who normally get so much time to get open with Rodgers buying time in and out of the pocket. Gronk will account for more yards by himself than Rodgers had all...

Jets need a QB? I know one they could have for a 3rd or 4th round pick. RG3 to the courtesy phone please.

We're going to need 3 threads. The non-spoiler thread, the spoiler thread, and the thread where everyone knows this is just J49 playing the long game with his epic troll.

Well hell, refs finally got one right on a challenge. Montoya initiates contact with Williams on a Beagle goal, and they allow it just fine. Kuznetsov...so hot right now.

Maybe Deena will have better deals.

While I think the outcome could be a lot different with everyone healthy for Pitt, Pats were up by 2 scores for the majority of that game. Yeah a couple of field goals got missed (not abnormal this year), but only reason it ended up a 7 point game was a TD in garbage time with 2 seconds left.

I'm just looking ahead to the playoffs...the precedent they're setting with some of these (and not consistently) will cause a tremendous uproar if it ends up deciding a big playoff game.

More goalie interference shananigans. Lupul brushing Lundqvist in the paint was enough to uphold a disallowed goal. Caps of course get the short end of the stick on a call when contact was made with Holtby but goal was allowed because Wilson was close to the guy so clearly it was his fault or...

Cousinsmania. Jordan Reed outperforms Gronk. Cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria.

I'm sure someone here with the skills and time could do a couple mock ups for our amusement.
