Last year, half the teams on Thanksgiving Day scored more than 30 points.  Today, no one has yet, although MN/NE may.  I don't have any stats to back it up, but it seems that scoring is down some this year.

Scoring peaked in '21 with teams averaging 24.8 points per game. It dropped to 23 last year. It's at 21.8 so far this year. So year, scoring is trending down. I fully expect the NFL to further tweak the rules this off-season on an effort to reverse that trend.

But all three games have been good and entertaining.

They need to give the defense more leeway. Scoring is too easy already.

I did. Passer rating is within half a point completion percentage is almost identical. Passing yards are within 150 of each other.

Pretty much identical. 

Perhaps you could show me where my comprehension is off?

 

Lamar is at

63.4% 1977yds 16td 7int and 91.7 rating

Daniel is at

65.1 % 1937yds 9td 4int 89.8 rating

 

Lol one player has almost double TDs than the other. Glad you are looking at rating too. Jones has a better rating than Stafford. Time for the Rams to draft a QB too??

In what world is nearly 50% more yards "pretty similar"?

You can keep making this argument if you want but there's nothing to support it. Lamar is an NFL MVP. Daniel Jones is a guy who sucks so bad that the Giants didn't even pick up his 5th year rookie contract option.

 

He gets blinded by QBs than can run. For some reason it triggers him and he can’t make a fair assessment of them.

Yeah I guess Lamar averaging close to 23 passing td's a year to Jones at about 10 a year is somehow negatively affected by Lamar averaging 5 rushing TDs a year to Jone's 2.5, because running is bad

I hope not, the game needs balance

Never understood why Kirk Cousins was never considered a franchise QB. Clearly he can play 

Lack of postseason success. That's a big factor in how you're perceived. 

Unless of course you just look cool. Lots of guys get extra points for looking cool.

Kinda like the Pontiac Fiero and DeLorean from the 80's

      The Carolina Huddle

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Been here since middle school right when it started around 2003 after the charlotte.com one. Living outside of Carolina it was tough to find good Panthers content, news or analysis. And no one to talk to about it. This place gave me a lot though I don’t often post. In the later days, I particularly Loved PhillyB’s write ups. They were fire. Too bad I go let it go. I appreciate the hell out of @MHS831 @TheSpecialJuan @Jackie Lee and others who have been posting great content and keeping this place worth coming back to. Particularly during the offseason. Appreciate y’all!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By kass · Posted

      Nice explanation, but I was just messing with you. Thought that would be obvious. I dont have the energy to keep on trolling. Last season I compared our situation with Bryce as a potential Alex Smith, but what we should be looking for is our version of Mahomes. Some people will read that as one sentence, to me that single sentence is equivalent to a half A4 explanationf of the teams pathway forward.

      I dont know how much of his salary would come across and how much a trade would cost but I feel Kmet would be the sort of TE Canales and Morgan would like
