Well there has always been a lot given to stats in anticipation for a game like this...........

But I wonder if there stat is obainable as it is relevent in its impact for both the Cats and the Gmen..........

That is this......

Has any NFL division leading team ever beated a team during the regular season in December.......... and then beat them again during the post season playoffs that followed?

I'd like to try to find that one out...........:wink:

Yes I am sure this has happened many tiimes. Just off the top of my head I can think of one. In 2003 the Colts lost to Denver in December and later on beat them in the playoffs. They also won the division that year. This is sort of a pointless stat because many clinched teams rest players in December.

I'm not sure thats what he was asking. He wanted to know IF the divison leading team has beaten the team in question. Then beat them again in the playoffs.

i.e. NY beats Car in reg season. Then in post season beat car again.

I don't know i'll try and look it up to see if its happened. I like Carolina in NY in the regular season or the Post season. We've had there number lately.

No surprise there but that is not what I'm asking.......in my example using yours above, I was wondering if the Colts would have beaten Denver in Dec and then faced Denver again in say the conference championship game and beaten them once again.................(and knowing that Denver was a division leader at the time they played them in December)...

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
