  • Does Addition of Joe Flacco Make the Broncos a Playoff Team? by Ryan O’Halloran & Mark Kiszla Denver Post Feb
    Kiszla vs. O’Halloran: Does addition of Joe Flacco make the Broncos a playoff team? By Ryan O’Halloran & Mark Kiszla Denver Post Feb. 19, 2019 Kiz: Life is weird sometimes. Looking for respite from an arctic blast of winter in Wyoming last week, I sipped on a rye in Joe’s, which is proud to be the smallest bar in Rock Springs. And I was rocked by the news the Broncos had agreed to a trade for Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco. At first, I thought it must be a joke. Still do. Does football operations chief John Elway seriously think Flacco can be the key to a playoff run in 2019? O’Halloran: I was also surprised since it seems like the Broncos were bidding against themselves for Flacco instead of waiting for him to get released. I highly doubt Elway believes Flacco is the key for the Broncos to be 2019 contenders. And Elway shouldn’t believe Flacco represents even a big piece toward returning to respectability. Over the last four years, Flacco is 24-27 as a starter with 64 touchdowns and 46 interceptions. He is a long way removed from his lights-out postseason in 2012 in which he led the Ravens to the Super Bowl. The Broncos need to add many more players to be playoff-good. Kiz: OK, I get it. The Broncos have had better luck during the past 20 years with quarterbacks plucked from the recycle bin than QBs they selected in the NFL Draft. But Flacco isn’t Peyton Manning. Despite his Super Bowl ring, Flacco isn’t even Jake Plummer.

  • Titans-Saints Supplemental Notes
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 19, 2019 TITANS-SAINTS SUPPLEMENTAL NOTES TITANS-SAINTS FEATURES NFL’S TOP TWO PASSERS: This Sunday’s contest between the Titans and Saints features the NFL’s top- ranked passers in 2019. Saints quarterback Drew Brees leads the league with a passer rating of 115.3, while Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill is second with a 114.6 passer rating. Since the NFL went to a 16-game schedule in 1978, this is the first Week 16 or Week 17 matchup featuring two starting quarterbacks with a passer rating of 114.0 or greater. Previously, the latest week into the season it happened was Week 15 of 2018, when Kansas City Chiefs signal caller Patrick Mahomes (115.2) went up against the Los Angeles Chargers and Philip Rivers (114.5). Brees and Tannehill are putting together two of the best passer ratings in NFL history for a single season. If they ended the year with their current numbers, Brees’ 115.3 passer rating would finish seventh all-time, while Tannehill’s 114.6 would be ninth. Brees (75.8) and Tannehill (71.5) are also ranked first and second, respectively, in completion percentage in 2019. In yards per attempt, Tannehill’s 9.5-yard average leads the league, while Brees’ 7.9-yard average is tied for 10th place. NFL’s leading passers in 2019 (passer rating): Player Comp Att Pct Yards Yards/Att TD Int Rating 1. Drew Brees 235 310 75.8 2,447 7.9 21 4 115.3 2. Ryan Tannehill 171 239 71.5 2,272 9.5 17 6 114.6 3.

  • Nfl on Thrilling Pace with 100Th Game on Tap
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 10/15/19 http://twitter.com/nfl345 NFL ON THRILLING PACE WITH 100TH GAME ON TAP To help celebrate the NFL’s 100th season, each week will feature an NFL 100 Game of the Week. Each game is a nod to a momentous game played, a fierce rivalry that spans decades, a matchup of original teams and/or a game in which history was made. The NFL has designated Sunday’s Raiders-Packers matchup as the NFL100 Game of the Week because the contest involves teams that made indelible memories in three previous meetings. Most memorable was Super Bowl II, Jan. 14, 1968, at the Orange Bowl in Miami, Fla., the final game of VINCE LOMBARDI’s Green Bay coaching career. The Packers, fresh off their Ice Bowl win over the Cowboys, held off the AFL champion Raiders, 33-14. … Nearly 25 years later, late in a frigid game against the L.A. Raiders on Dec. 26, 1993, LeROY BUTLER forced a Raiders fumble recovered by Pro Football Hall of Famer REGGIE WHITE. After rumbling 10 yards, White lateraled to Butler, who covered the remaining 25 yards into the end zone and invented the Lambeau Leap as Green Bay clinched a playoff berth … Then, on Dec. 22, 2003, in Oakland, Pro Football Hall of Famer BRETT FAVRE, only a day after his father’s death, threw for 399 yards and four touchdowns before a Monday Night Football television audience, leading Green Bay to a pivotal win that catapulted the Packers to the playoffs. … Incidentally, following the Raiders’ loss to Lombardi’s Packers in Super Bowl II, the Raiders won the next five meetings with Green Bay, and wouldn’t lose to the Packers again for 23 years, capturing three Super Bowls in that span.

The affable, lovable Patrick Mahomes—League MVP, Super Bowl champ—is standing right in front of you, waving his arms: Don’t take a quarterback in the first round! This is the bedrock assumption of nearly everything you’ll read in this publication so I’ll just get it out of the way right now: last year’s stats are not guarantees for this year’s stats. In 2019, I received dozens of questions about why, if I’m picking toward the end of the first round, shouldn’t I eschew all the uncertainty at RB and WR and lock in another 50-TD season from Mahomes? Despite Kansas City’s long-awaited return to Halastown, you saw why. Everything has to go perfect for a QB to throw 50 TDs. It’s happened three times in league history and in their follow-up campaigns, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Mahomes threw 39, 0 and 26. That doesn’t mean they’re bad. Hell, there are only 11 40-TD seasons in NFL history, and in not a single case did the QB even match his total the next year.
