Here we go Cthu

It would be nice to see a win and not have grbitpole look like the second coming of Dan Marino.

I'll just be happy if he doesn't look like Tom Brady. Remember, this team made Bruce Gradkowski look awesome when he played for Oakland.

 

[antdrewjosh]

That's true I'm not counting the Patriots out just because Brady isn't playing. They still have all of our signals on file and months to prepare.

It might be even more meaningful if one were to look at the games in this format..... L L W W when examined in that fashion it might show a trend to start the season unprepared or prepared in a more accurate fashion than the summation listed for those of you that wish to have stats for lots of discussion topics.

 

[antdrewjosh]

It doesn't matter how you look at it because unprepared or prepared cannot be determined by looking at W-L record. Just because you lost doesn't mean you were unprepared. Sometimes you get your *** kicked even when you know exactly what's coming.

Regardless, I think we have enough years to detect a meaningful trend.

Yes that is now trending upward lmao

Yes that is now trending upward lmao

We acknowledge that and embrace that going forward if you will and the arrow is pointing up back at the lab, obviously.
