Isn't this what Rapaport had reported back in January? Not really anything new from him, seems to just keep suggesting the same thing...

Anyone start watching Legion? I thought the first episode was good, although I think it's following the trend of OA, Stranger Things type shows.

Meh, don't care that much to look into it. Atlantas is way off though, according to PFR, they had 209 drives. With that offense I find it hard to believe they had less drives than the Bills, which football outsiders is saying they had 166.

Yup, exactly.

Hmm some of those #drives is off. Pro football reference has the Bills with 177 drives.

As an aside to this, PPG isn't the end all be all statistic anyways. Team A plays 3 games and their defense allows 40 points on 40 total drives. Team B plays 3 games and their defense allows 50 points on 60 total drives. Team B's defense allowed more PPG, but they also faced 20 more drives against. Is that because their offense kept turning the ball over? Or because the offense couldn't sustain drives? Is Team A really the better defense considering they faced less opportunities against? It's the same with offense. People keep pointing out that the Bills offense finished 7th overall. Sure, in PPG they finished 7th but in terms of the percentage of drives ending in points, they finished 15th.

Jesus how many threads do we need on the QB situation?

Great work Bandit, as usual.

Right and again, you are comparing Julio NOW. Where were your thoughts on him after the 2013 season?

So you just compared Julio, where he is now, to where Watkins is now... exactly the opposite of what I just said. Did you think that about Julio in 2013? And really?

The play call was ridiculous. 3rd and 1.... 9:40 to go, clock running. Bleed the clock. I mean come on.

Of course it is. And like I've said, I don't expect him to put up numbers like Julio, he doesn't have a Qb like Ryan. That doesn't mean Watkins can't be a very good receiver in his own right.

But that's not what's happening. It's about context and comparing Watkins to his peers at their perspective points in their careers.

And if you would have read on, you would have seen that the conversation is about the first 3 years of their respective careers and how similar they are. Injuries AND statistics. No one here is comparing Julio Jones right now to Sammy Watkins right now.

Hilarious that you can't even post the correct stats, try again.

That wasn't the point of your post. Your complaining about Sammy being injured and not on the field. Julio Jones wasn't on the field his first 3 years. In fact Chris Hogans playoff stats are better than Julio Jones, certainly Chris Hogan must be better than Jones. And Jones, at the same point in his career as Sammy, would have had to do the same thing you are suggesting. And Sammy has done all of this without Matt Ryan throwing him the ball. Do I bet Sammy will do what Julio has done? No. But that wasn't really the point I was making. The original post was about Sammy being on the field and Julio wasn't on the field his first 3 years either. And yet Sammy and Julio have very similar numbers.

Soooooo what are your thoughts on Julio Jones?

Deal.

Obviously the Bills should have kept Hogan and release Watkins...

That was ridiculous too. 14 seconds left on the play clock and they are snapping the ball.

I don't want to look or talk about football... I'm ill.

RUN. THE. BALL. Why did Shanahan get cute? They were up 28-9, and they started getting cute.

The Pats** strike again. Head set malfunction.

Stranger Things 2!!

I think it was the harness she was wearing...
