Another useless stat to track and leverage for someone's agenda. 

It's far from the most important, but I don't think it's useless. I think it's further proof that we're close. We have been competitive with a lame duck coach, no QB, and the worst luck in the NFL. We probably jump 5 spots in the rankings for each one of those three that get reversed.

I mean just this season, the difference between being 6-6 (and first in the division) and 4-8 are the result of 3 kicks: Cade York's 58 yard GW FG vs the Browns and Pinero's missed 48 yard GW XP and 33 yard GW FG in OT at Atlanta.

We have gone 0-3 in 1 score games (Ls to Browns, at NYG, at ATL). I don't count the Saints game as a 1 score game because that game was pretty much decided, but even if you do, it's 1-3.

How is it working out for the Steelers and Denver then? Steelers being the luckiest team in the NFL yet are a losing team and the bottom of the AFC North.

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
