Saw an interesting stat today. We're the 5th best D (317yds/gm) and the 5th worst O (303yd/gm).

Hahahahahahaha. At some point, it's going to take more then two TD's in a game. But we can enjoy it for what it's worth. I loved sticking the sword in the back of the Browns and ending any playoff hopes they had.

Those are just numbers right...

Last week, I was very critical of our young skilled positon players ( Washington, Snell, Duck, Cain, Whytt) saying it was just the Bungles. But two weeks in a row they arrived and balled. Those baby steps are starting to get motion into a full sprint. I hoenstly believe if our offense keeps progressing like this, it will compliment this championship calliber D.

Not to make this a Mason vs Ducke thread, but the ball thrown by the Duck seems to be placed where his WR can make the play, and not like like how Mason delivers his passes that seems to set up his Wr to be killed reaching for the ball.

i bet we win more games this year than we did last... without our stud HOF QB...and without AB.

I think that speaks volumes

That's some interesting perspective. I bet people will take notice of this once we make the playoffs.

There are lots of things to like about this team, and some things that you’d really like to see improved. Stats are stats, but only measure so much. Although I always feel that we’re right on the edge of being not a good team, 4 of our 5 losses come against teams that are a combined 40-8. Think about that stat.
