NFL

The Jets have a bunchload of unprecedented offensive failure stats

• 4th lowest 3rd down conversion rate in the past decade through 9 games (25%)

• Lowest 3rd and short (3rd and 1-3) conversion rate I have ever seen (25%)

• Red Zone conversion rate of 23%, would be the lowest since at least 2000.

But... On any play starting inside the opponents side of the field, redzone or otherwise. The Jets have turned the ball over more than they've scored a TD.

That is a shocking ineptitude I have not seen equaled by any team that I can find records for (PFR only goes back to 1994)

since the day the browns traded three (3) first round picks and gave $230 million to deshaun watson:

deshaun watson: 12 games, 2217 yards, 14 touchdowns, 9 interceptions

cj stroud: 9 games, 2626 yards, 15 touchdowns, 2 interceptions

With the breaking news that Deshaun Watson will have season-ending surgery, it's a good time to examine the Browns return on their $230M investment, along with them giving up three first-round picks, one third-round pick, and two fourth-round picks. 34 games into the 85 total games of the contract have delivered the following results:

• 11 full games at QB
• 7 total wins (when playing the entire game)
• 3 total games with above average play (measured by ANY/A)

Belichick is by all means at his lowest point. Is he going to come back from this?

Was there any HC in the history that reached the peak, got knocked down to the low, and managed to come back?

Andy Reid came to mind, but he switched teams. Anybody else that stayed at the same team and managed to come back?

​

Let us all spend the requisite time getting the goofiest seedings possible 🙌 Godspeed my friends

Hutchinson often dances at Ford Field wearing a Honolulu blue jersey, a silver helmet and eye black on one side of his face that he says prepares him for war. It starts above his eyebrow and reaches a point on his cheek around his mouth.

Not long ago, however, he was dancing at his home stadium wearing a pastel shirt and jorts — a tribute to Taylor Swift’s “Lover” album. Hutchinson was in a private suite for the Eras Tour concert with family and friends, including some little girls.

None of the other Swifties in the suite were more animated than Aidan. “He peaked that night during ‘You Belong With Me’ and ‘Love Story,’” his sister Mia says.

Record by Team:

EDIT: Added 'Record by Team' results.

Bill Belichick has 300 career wins, good for 3rd of all time behind only George Halas (318) and Don Shula (328).

He has six Super Bowl rings - clearly more than any other coach in the SB era, but also tied with Halas and Lambeau for 2nd-most total Championships, behind only Paul Brown (7).

He has 9 Conference Championships, most ever by a wide margin.

He is 0.705 in the playoffs, 2nd-most of any active HC (Zac Taylor leads at 0.714).

He is tied with Shula for most total playoff appearances at 19 (Andy Reid will join them this year as the Pats will not be in this years playoffs and the Chiefs will)

He has coached 44 playoff games, six more than the 2nd-best (Andy Reid).

He has 31 playoff wins, 9 more than the 2nd-best (still Andy Reid).

It's perfectly fine to be frustrated with the path that the Patriots are on. But talk of firing Bill Belichick? That's like firing John Wooden or Nick Saban or Fielding Yost after 2 or 3 bad seasons. Not only is it disrespectful to them and everything they have done, but it's disrespectful to the entire history of the sport.

Get real.

Belichick will probably coach until he hits 329 wins for most ever.

The Commodore64 spit out the following tidbits:

• Showing the power of having good tiebreaker stats, the Bengals at 5-4 with a horrible conference record have roughly the same odds as the Colts at 5-5 who have a much better conference record (and a win over the Texans which obviously the Bengals do not).
• Scenarios in which 7 wins somehow made the playoffs were found for BUF, MIA, NE, NYJ, DEN, LV, LAC, TEN, IND, JAX, HOU. It didn't find any with win totals that low for BAL, CIN, CLE, PIT, KC. As I mentioned in the NFC version, while the C64 searches hard for this intel, there could be a struck by lighting while winning powerball scenario that eluded it.
• It said 12 wins should assure a team of making the playoffs no matter what else happens, although it claims that CIN and PIT need 13. Same caveat on this as above.
• With the above numbers, NE and TEN definitely do not control their own destiny to make the playoffs, but it appears all the other teams still do.
• The number of wins most likely to be good for a wildcard looks like 10.
• Projected number of wins likely to be needed to win each division (i.e. 2nd place +1): North 11-12 heavy on the 12; East 10; West 10-11 favoring 11; South 10-11 also favoring 11.
• There are no division or playoff clinching scenarios and no scenarios that would eliminate anyone from playoff contention for week 11. Patriots don't have much sand left in the hourglass though.
• Contrary to the NFC in which some relative clarity has appeared, the AFC is a quagmire wrapped in a WWE deathmatch, really only the Titans and Patriots are realistically out and nobody is at the point where they could faceplant themselves into enough wins to make it.

The fact that so many Bills' fans want McDermott gone i is B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

Right now the Bills are 8th in pts scored and 5th in pts given up!

W/L RECORD

2023: 5-5* 2022: 13-3 (Won Div) 2021: 11-6 (Won Div) 2020: 13-3 (Won Div) 2019: 10-6

*EVERY LOSS HAS BEEN 6 OR LESS!!

Before Sean McDemott came, the Buffalo Bill's hadn't made the playoffs in 18 years (1999).

They've won the division three years in a row. Before 2020, the Bills hadn't won the division in 25 years (1995).

TLDR: Chicago Bears fan here to say that Bills' fans need to slow their roll about firing McDermott.

Sadly, Brock Purdy is also "Mr. Irrelevant" in this list, since he has no second name.

"First, my wife Brittany got them for me, so I'm not throwin' y'all down, but I have to wear 'em, ya know," Mahomes, 28, told the brothers of his former high-school sweetheart, 28.

"At the same time, I threw 'em on that first season [and] we had a pretty good season that season," he explained of how it all started back in 2017.
