You guys have high standards. I’d nail all of them.

That is typically what you do with planks.

I think Acrobat was talking about screws.

Money can buy good looks. Money buys stylists who get clothes to fit your features. Money buys hair consultants to give you a good haircut. Money buys good quality food, supplements, beds for good sleep, creams for skin and assistants to make life less stressful when you're not working.

Money buys good trainers that can let you lose weight.

If you want to be good looking and you have money....you will probably get to a 7 at least no matter how ugly you actually are.

Did money get Brady a head shrinking? Because that's what it appears he got somewhere between 2002 and 2019.

Aaron's did too. Both are about the no dairy, no sugar etc. diet. They both have thinned out tremendously. Which impacted their face and head.

Pretty crazy. Like looking at Barry Bonds in reverse.

This whole conversation has gotten very strange.

Ah, the duldrums of the NFL offseason have arrived.

Nice improvement; do we know the context of those numbers? What's a good rate?

from Warren Sharp

"Only 7 times in NFL history has a quarterback thrown 500+ attempts with 5 or fewer interceptions
Aaron Rodgers is the only quarterback to do it more than once...
and he owns 4 of those 7 seasons!

Even more insane?
He’s done it THREE YEARS IN A ROW: 2018, 2019 & 2020"

shows improvement, I suppose a good rate would be a few % points higher, the best tend to be high teens, I imagine good would be considered low to mid teens.

this is 4 years old, but the high that year was 18%

Would be great for KeKe to take another leap, our pass rush really dropped down last year compared to 019, and Preston should have to earn every snap we give him over Gary.

15. GREEN BAY PACKERS
The Packers’ pass rush didn’t have quite the same bite in 2020 as it did following the addition of several edge defenders in 2019, but they still finish the season as a slightly above average pass-rushing unit on this list.

Za’Darius Smith followed up a 2019 season in which he led the NFL in pressures with another strong showing this season, which included an 86.0 pass-rushing grade. On the other hand, Preston Smith saw a significant dip in his pass-rushing production. He was one of just five edge rushers in the league to post a pass-rush win rate below 10.0% on 300 or more pass-rushing snaps.

this article caught my eye when I noticed how poorly Preston played, but also that Pitts had the best pass pressure per snap of any team in 14 years, Watts as usual was great, but what really made the difference was the DT's

1. PITTSBURGH STEELERS
The Steelers are coming off one of the best pass-rushing seasons we’ve seen since 2006, generating pressure on a whopping 45.1% of their pass-rushing snaps over the regular season.

It was a well-rounded effort, with Defensive Player of the Year hopeful T.J. Watt leading the way with 73 total pressures (third in the NFL) and both Stephon Tuitt (71 pressures) and Cameron Heyward (62 pressures) not far behind that mark. Having three of the top 10 pressure producers on the same defense is a remarkable feat, particularly considering Pittsburgh lost starting edge defender Bud Dupree midway through the season.

What about for DTs that aren't named Aaron Donald?

[TheSkeptic]

That is fine, but he is a major liability in the run game. What are the stats for the opposing offense when he is on the field? How many yards per carry when he is on the sidelines and how many when he is on the field? How many yards gained when he tackles the RB?

What can he do that Gary can't do better?

[Drj820]

I hope TJ can plug a hole in the run game starting this year...if not we will have another year where we left a season with a weakness, and entered a new season with the same weakness.
