You're right, I should know by now that DT would overreact to such things.

Everyone would. Look at Lathum's reaction to the Giants injury troubles.

Too bad the Dolphins didn't make that Orton trade.

dola- and given the Giants have 6-7 starters out, many for the season, I don't think I over reacted at all.

I don't really want to split hairs over who gets emotional, but DT you can't say everyone.
Peyton Manning is likely out for the season and you don't see me and ColtsCrazy going nuts over it. |

2011 NFL Player Passing Stats - National Football League - ESPN Actually 4th, if I'm reading this right. Or is this not the ESPN one? How in the world does Ryan Fitzpatrick's get the nod as best for the week? In any system? Lots of TDs but so did Brady. He also had low yards, only the 8th best completion percentage, and it's not like his average was high or anything. SI

Brady threw an INT that resulted in a TD. That gets factored into ESPN's number. |

Ok, am I crazy or didn't Matt Bryant on the Bucs kick a 63 or 64 yarder a couple years ago?

Heh. They penalize Brady for an offensive player blocking a defender into his intended target as the ball arrives, causing the ball to pop into the air, where a D-Lineman happens to be in position to catch it and rumble to the 10. I get penalizing for the TD, but if you're going to be subjective you're really going to penalize Brady for a TD on a perfectly thrown ball?

Without knowing the background on their stat, my guess is that efficiency is king and he amassed the most "good" outcomes (ie. TD passes) in the least number of attempts and did so with minimal "bad" outcomes (1 sack, no lost fumbles, and no picks). |

I thought the point of ESPN's "look at every play" system was to be able to assign or remove blame on every QB play. |

That's what I thought. I didn't think the interception was Brady's fault at all.

Seeing the current Peter King photo on CNNSI (Luke McCown, Ryan Fitzpatrick show the right stuff under center - Peter King - SI.com) where the guy has a Cardinals' jersey in the Patriots' (or I guess maybe Texans') colors reminds me that someone should tell Tony Sparano that he coaches Miami, not the Patriots. I swear his shirt / sweater was the same blue color Belichick had on...

I didn't read any of this thread, just wanted to mention that I went to the Cardinals/Panthers game this past Sunday and Cam Newton looked incredible. Granted the Cards secondary looked liked a bunch of confused JV players, but Newton's decision making was top-notch and he made all the throws. I am still not a fan, but it will be interesting to see how he progresses this season.
Kevin Kolb, on the other hand, often looked bewildered and several times just threw the ball up for grabs when he was under pressure. His receivers didn't help him out much either aside from Heap, but that offensive line is awful. Fortunately for Kolb, as the weather cools they will open the roof and he can see more of that blue Arizona sky every time he is knocked on his ass. Oh, and that stadium is immense, reminds me of the old Pontiac Silverdome. Just ridiculously large.

well well the NFL has ruled that the roughing the passer penalty on Arizona's Marshall should not have been called, which meant it should have been an INT for the Cards. NFL admits Marshall’s hit on Newton was legal | ProFootballTalk |
