Week 17 Gameday Discussion

It is time for the Panthers to end the reign of Tom Brady 

Saints/Eagles, Jets/Seahawks, Vikings/Packers, Steelers/Ravens, and Panthers/Bucs look like the key games today. 49ers need to win to keep hopes alive for #1 seed, but they need the Eagles to lose. Giants could clinch today against the Colts and Lions need to win to still have a chance for wildcard.

Is there any evidence of the idea of interception rates for QBs being affected by their defense? One big talking point I’ve heard my whole life is that a QB throws many picks because he has a bad defense so he forces balls into coverage to “make something happen” but I don’t really think that’s true.

I think it can be true.If you have a bad defense,you have to force thing more often on 3rd down.Same thing when you are behind in the fourth quarter

For the Colts, the argument isn’t because of a bad defense it’s because the defense is so much better then the offense and the offense is not keeping drives alive so the QB is trying to make things happen but throwing picks instead. The Colts other problems are dropped passes and red zone fumbles.
