Way late to the party on NFCS quarterbacks but here are some random Matt Ryan facts:

-In the history of the NFL, only two quarterbacks have ever strung together (3) or more consecutive seasons with 4,500+ passing yards, 25+ touchdown passes, while maintaining a completion percentage above 66.0. The first was Peyton Manning, whose streak has continued for (5) consecutive seasons (2009-10, 2012-14). The other is Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan.

-Ryan holds the NFL record for most completions in the first (7) years of a quarterback�s career.

-Ryan also has the second most passing yards in the first (7) seasons of a quarterback�s career.

-Ryan�s 90.5 postseason QBR (2012) is the highest mark in QBR history � dating back to 2006.
In the 2012 NFC Championship game vs. the 49ers 2nd ranked pass-defense (NY/A), Ryan recorded the highest single-game QBR in championship game history � and still lost. Had the Falcons defense not allowed Colin Kaepernick to record the second highest total QBR in championship game history, the Falcons might have advanced to Super Bowl XLVII.

Ryan has had excellent receivers but has had poo poo for an o-line, running game, or any kind of defense to back him him up.

Also the Bucs are going to absolutely waste any chance Winston has of being good.

lmao

Have you ever seen one of the great abstract masterpieces in person and had it do absolutely nothing for you? You're standing there and it looks like nonsense but you know the reptation so you just keep staring at it. You back up, you get up close, you look at it head on and off angle. Nothing. As you stand there bystanders all walk by and clearly get the same thing from it, but to you it's meaningless. You just stand there gaping at it for an hour hoping it'll pop eventually like some sort of extremely high skill magic eye.

That's every time I watch basketball.

Watch NCAA basketball. It's like going to an art exhibition at a local college. The art isn't very good and sometimes it's so bad that you have fits of uncontrollable laughter.

When did Russell Wilson suffer a concussion??

quote:

Russell Wilson - QB - Seahawks
Russell Wilson said he has not closed the door on playing both football and baseball.
There are a lot of holes in this claim. First, Wilson doesn't look like a potential star in baseball. He hit .229 with five homers and 19 steals in 315 at-bats for the Rockies' Class A level in 2010-11. Second, playing quarterback in the NFL is a full-year job -- he can't pop in and out a la Bo Jackson or Deion Sanders. And finally, Wilson is in the middle of contract talks with the Seahawks and will likely emerge with a deal that guarantees him an unprecedented amount of money. The team is sure to include a clause that the face of their franchise can't seriously play baseball.

Don't view this as an invitation to explain, I'll probably look it up during the play-offs if the Hawks get past the first round.

If a team has sustained pressure the other team can't just shoot it the length of the rink for no reason.

If the defensive team ices the puck the face off goes back into their zone and they don't get a line change.

to prevent a defense from just heaving the puck down ice repeatedly without actually going on the attack or forming a breakout

I'm going to explain anyway so eat it. After a team commits its fifth foul in a quarter the other team is in the bonus, meaning they get free throws after every foul for the rest of the quarter
