Yes but without Von Miller and Elvis Dumervil, The Golden Calf of Bristol wouldn't be able to play the style he does.

I think we get so wrapped up in individual statistics that we forget this football is the ultimate team game. Meaning you're absolutely right, but I personally don't see what it matters. The Golden Calf of Bristol plays his style because of Miller and Dumervil, and Miller and Dumervil are able to do what they do because of Denver being able to run the ball fifty times a game.

They depend on each other, yin and yang. Really, that's why football is so special as a sport. It truly is a TEAM sport. It's the only one where your success is ENTIRELY dependent on your teammates, and I don't know if another sport, specifically a major one, can say that.

So I think that's part of the issue here. We say The Golden Calf of Bristol couldn't do what he's doing without Miller and Dumervil...well, of course. But that shouldn't be a knock on anybody, IMO.

Those projected numbers are insane...

“Over 16 games,” said Lahman, “The Golden Calf of Bristol projects to 19 touchdowns, three interceptions, 2,061 yards passing and 1,112 yards rushing with five rushing touchdowns.”

For all you guys that like to add passing and rushing....24 TDs to 3 picks?

Hard to be picked off when you run it 90% of the time. What exactly would you find out comparing it to picks if you don't take into account attempts?

Hard to be picked off when 50% of your passes land in a spot on the field 30 yards away from anybody wearing pads.

the crazy part of that isn't just the 24 TDs, it's the 3 INTs. That's nuts... yes he barely throws the ball but still, you'd expect more interceptions than what he is throwing these last few games from most QBs.

I wouldn't take The Golden Calf of Bristol over Cam but the reality is that he can move the ball when it comes down to it, he's just doing it in a very non-traditional way.

it's amazing what happens in 4 of your 5 wins your defense can hold teams under 20 points.

Which, for what it's worth, Orton would've done if his defense did that.

And if our defense did that? We'd have lost only two games; ATL and TEN

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.

      Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
