incognito_man Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 While we were facing Jacobs I said I was glad he's not fast. He's a beast otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
childofpudding Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 In the last five seasons, for any RB who has at least 3 rushing TDs in a single game, three of the four lowest in yards/rush have been on the Patriots: http://pfref.com/tiny/ENGlP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills have no deep threats + deep ball is highly variable year to year. Tells me he's been very consistent and accurate in the short game, which I'm pretty sure he wasn't last year and definitely wasn't at Wyoming, so progress is being made. Ok, maybe not a good sign, you don't want to be dead last in anything, but let's just say I would much rather be #1 in short passing and last in deep than vice versa. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboys, Texans, Chiefs w/ Mahomes. They're definitely on a historic pace, no matter who they've played. Just figured context was important.

I am not entirely sure, but I think the Patriots D has scored more or almost as many points as it has allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not entirely sure, but I think the Patriots D has scored more or almost as many points as it has allowed. The Bucs lost in OT against the Saints week one on a pick six. Typical. The Bucs gave up a pick six week four against the Bengals in a 35-7 win. So only 13 points the defense didn't give up through seven weeks. Baltimore gave up a pick six in a week eight 14-6 loss against the Titans. The Titans scored another pick six against the Ravens week 11. So that's 14 points the defense didn't give up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season he was hitting Robert Foster in deep balls pretty regularly. If he can start hitting one deep ball a game the offense is going to explode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilflamingo Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Just saw this stat, which is kind of interesting with regards to the MVP discussions floating around. When attempting 36+ passes (i.e. above the league average), Russell Wilson hasn't won a game since October 2017, going 0-6 in such games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's one of those metrics that's hard to be positive in. Not seen the 36+ one, but the 50+ attempts stat - it's VERY hard to win. edit; found it; Patriots’ record when Brady throws 50 or more passes is 19-9. Drew Brees is second in NFL history, throwing 50 or more passes in 19 games. His teams’ record in those games is 4-15. Peyton Manning is third in NFL history, with 50 or more passes in 17 games. His teams’ record in those games is 4-13. Dan Marino is fourth in NFL history with 16 games of 50 passes or more. His teams’ record in those games was 5-11. So, guess it's similar even with a lower bracket 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
