I miss John Madden. Even at his most senile, he is still better than 60% of the guys in the booths.

I thought this information/statistics about Tyreek Hill seemed pretty significant...

Make of this what you will as far as Tyreek goes...
Tyreek Hill has played 2 seasons. I did a check on current and somewhat-recently retired WR's, who had a significant role during their first 2 seasons. How often in their first 2 seasons did the WR either A.) score a touchdown or B.) tally 100 yards receiving? A game in which a player had a TD and 100 yards only counts once (no double-counting). Here are the results...


1. Odell Beckham: in 20 of first 27 games did he score a TD or gain 100 yards (74.1%)

2. AJ Green: in 22 of first 32 games did he score a TD or gain 100 yards (68.8%)

So for these 40 WR's, who had significant roles in their first 2 NFL seasons, Tyreek Hill is one of just 3 to finish in the Top 10 across both catch percentage and touchdown/100 yard game percentage (the other two in the Top 10 for both categories are Odell Beckham and Marques Colston).

AJ Green finished 2017 a gutless 2 for 21 on passes of 20+ DoT. The previous two years he had 10 of 21 & 10 of 22 at that depth.

Interesting post, floz00

[IBall2]

Warren Sharp said this on a recent rotounderworld podcast that I thought was interesting.

The Colts trailed at halftime in only 6 games in 2017, only 2 teams trailed in less games at halftime and they played in the superbowl.

The Colts held the lead at halftime in 9 games last year, yet they went 2-7 in these games. The 2017 Colts were the ONLY team in the last 27 years to lose at least 7 games which they led at halftime. They are also the only team in the last 20 years to hold a lead entering the 4th quarter in at least 9 games, but win no more than 4 of them.
