This offense has to have some all time record in futility in some odd category. The fg's are out of control

Some silly crap made up by someone from pff means little to actual NFL statistics, imo.

35-18 td to int ratio and led a terrible team that relied on him to being a top O in the league, Bridge was 14- 9 td to int ratio and took a good team who didnt rely on him, to being the worst O in the league, in spite of having AD.

When we were 5-0 we were scoring TDs than FGs in the redzone. I haven't looked but I'd assume we've scored more FGs than TDs ever since.

We were missing the FG's early on, too.

Crappy team = lots of passing in the 2nd half and garbage TDs. Good team = lots of running the clock down in the 2nd half. I'm not an expert and I know this. Look at the Jags v Titans game this year for proof of Bortles empty stats from being on a crappy team.

Haha good point! RIP Walsh. Viva la Kai!

What a play by Bradford, picking up the fumble and making a play! NICE!

I can't wait to see it, my stream sucks!

Im aware of the concept, and I agree that may have played a part, im not convinced it was anything more then a small part of it. I dont think the vast discrepancy between their two seasons last year can be pinned on such a convenient excuse.

That was sweet! Great catch by Diggs too on next play! Now if they can finish this drive.

TOUCHDOWN... ball was on the line.

It's unreal that we can't run a half yard anymore

We have to go for it. Just get an INCH.

Why the F do you throw a bubble screen to RUDOLPH? That guy is horrible at YAC. He goes into "Moose on ice" mode and can't even use his size to run through guys. Put Patterson there and that's a TD.

Line Asiata up under center and punch that ball in.
