There’s a lot of teams with failures at HC or OC/DC, and they’re wasting entire seasons of progression keeping them around. Chargers, Jets, Commanders, Panthers, Steelers, probably missing some others.

It’s amazing watching these teams keep doing the same thing every single week for an entire season that doesn’t work.

They look like the abbreviations from the old Tecmo Super Bowl game, so I’m kinda ok with it.

I get it’s talking about the defense, but this headline is written like the 49ers offense has complex schemes designed to throw off their own QB, because it’s redundant to say that at the end, as all QB’s in the league are facing the same defenses.

I enjoy this thread if nothing else cause teams that are doing well somehow get upset that some of that might be due to luck, like their team is somehow winning all those games on skill.

NFL games are so close, and evenly matched a lot of the time, one weird bounce of a fumble, or a WR having a ball go through his hands for a pick 6 can basically decide a game.

There’s more luck that most fans want to admit, hell a good portion of every teams success is based on how lucky they are with injuries.

I was fully expecting that to be the Manning face.

Also, is that saying the Chargers are the luckiest team in the league, but also only 4-5? cause that would completely track with a Chargers stat.

1-1 when tied

13-6 when having the lead. 68% win when leading going into the 4th feels really low.

This post from 5 years ago had teams winning around 87% if they led after 3 quarters.

Small sample size, but still should have won 16-17 of those they led instead of 13.

Too lazy to find any better data, was just curious cause that felt off.

I mean, it’s not happening cause he’s on pace for 28tds and his teams unlikely to win more than 10 games or their division and are currently the 7th seed.

Unless they go 7-1 and he plays far better than he already has it’s not happening. Especially if one of Mahomes/Hurts/Goff/Purdy get their team to 14-15 wins

There hasn’t been an MVP in the last 20+ years that didn’t win 11 games, and that’s when they only played 16.

The last time someone won MVP when their team didn’t even win their division was 2012 Adrian Peterson when he ran for 2100 yards. Herbert doesn’t have a chance unless he throws 30 TDs his last 8 games.

I’ll tell you why we don’t do this and why it is flawed, using my Team. The Chiefs have only gone for 7 4th downs all year I believe, being 3/7. 4 of those were desperation 4th downs in the broncos/lions game when we were down multiple scores, so it doesn’t really give a good representation. Two of them I remember were 4th and 25 or more.

Maybe you could Weight this as there’s a lot more 3rd down attempts than 4th down, or take out desperation 4th downs in the 4th quarter when losing over like 5-10 yards. I dunno.

Also I’m really annoyed how conservative Andy is being this year with the offense. They only have 3 4th down attempts this season that weren’t because they’re losing in the 4th and have to. This is part of why the offense looks worse, is we’ve punted or kicked field goals on about 20 4th and shorts this season, a lot of them inside the 10.

three 4th down attempts in 9 games with the best QB in the NFL, just dumb. (that’s all my complaining, we’re awesome)

Bills had an int that went through a WR’s hands, Allen fumbled a handoff, you had 12 men on the field on a missed field goal that would have won you the game.

I think the worry comes from you guys shooting yourselves in the foot repeatedly, yet still having a chance to win at the end after 4 turnovers, then still fucking up the easiest part of the game, putting 11 or fewer guys on the field.

the Bills averages 3 more yards per play than the broncos. you averages 7 yards per carry. You guys should have won that game by a couple scores.

they have a better record than you, and that game was 6 weeks ago, it’s not that weird.

I’d like to see them put in a rule that if the Division winner doesn’t have a winning record, then the Wild Card team gets to host the game (being the 1st wild card team, I’d assume they’ll always have 11 wins or so).

So winning your division is still important cause you get in the playoffs, but we don’t need a 8-9 team hosting a 13-4 wild card or some shit.

They’ve got as much chance as the other 7 teams fighting for 3 playoff spots. The last couple weeks of the regular season are going to be fantastic if there’s still a ton of teams in contention.

Josh Allen reached the AFCCG in 2020, and in 2021 he put his team ahead of the chiefs with 13 seconds left. He has 19TDs/4int in 8 playoff games and a 100 qb rating, and that’s with his first playoff game having 0 TDs and a 70 rating.

He is the 2nd best QB in the playoffs currently playing, and no one really pays attention to that, or makes fun of “Mr January” cause his defense couldn’t stop the chiefs/bengals.

I think this whole Interception talk is absolutely asinine anyways. I’d rather have my QB taking more chances and scoring more points, even if that means he has 5-6 more Int over the season than average. They’ll probably give MVP to some guy with 10 less TD’s than the leader this year cause he only throws 4-5 interceptions like they did to Brady a couple years ago.

Interceptions are like completion %. It’s not really an issue unless you go out of a certain range. Any completion percentage around 65% or better is fine and someone having 75% doesn’t mean they’re better. Same with INTs, anything under 20 seems fine to me as long as they guy is putting up points. Having an insanely low amount of interceptions doesn’t tell me anything besides the QB probably plays way too cautious.

I enjoy this subreddit much less than years prior due to the number of posts about penalties.

I, along with most others here, still don’t understand how he’s only on the C team at CBS.

The 2nd best team in the AFC West fired their coach 2 weeks ago lol.

This cowboys/giants game just kinda seems mean. I’m not sure I’ve ever felt bad for a football team before at the start of a game.

MVP i’m going with Tua or Allen, whichever one can go on a heater and win the AFC East. Hurts if they both stumble. Lamar might not reach 20 passing TDs, Mahomes being hamstrung by a defense that’s too good.

OPOY: Tyreek

DPOY: Probably whichever big name dude rips off the most sacks in the last half. plenty of good options.

COTY: Campbell if they get to 13-14 wins. If not Pederson/McDaniel maybe, or Sirianni if they win 15/16. Outside shot for Houstons coach if they somehow get to 10 wins as the voters love the shitty team that barely makes the playoffs.

CPOY: Chase Young (only cause I bet on him before the season at like 75:1 odds or some shit).
