Re: WHERE THEY RANKED? (in the NFL)

Gotcha NKy, it's some great info, and thanks for the effort my man. I think we got the intangibles that'll put us over the top!!!

Re: WHERE THEY RANKED? (in the NFL)

If you really want to look at stats, look at strength of schedule.........

Then adjust the rest of the stats accordingly.

Re: WHERE THEY RANKED? (in the NFL)

What I get from these stats is that the Cardinals special teams suck! I didnt know they were so bad. They have it tough stopping Ben with their middling defense. They certainly have a bad day ahead with our D and now they are hoeing a tough row with our special teams??? They will be losing the battle of field position all day long.

Re: WHERE THEY RANKED? (in the NFL)

We are actually better than them in the Punting category.

Our special teams sucked when Kevin Spencer was here, and their special teams suck when Kevin Spencer went there. But somehow, Sean Morey made the Pro Bowl (because of one blocked punt, I would assume).

That leaped out at me also. I can't believe we rank higher in than anybody in net punting average. Maybe I'll have to go with Tone as my pick for the game MVP. Hmmm ...
