In 2020 so far:
Kyler Murray: 2,673 total yards, 24 total TDs
Lamar Jackson:2,450 total yards, 17 total TDs

That's crazy to me. Lamar is having a good season too, even if it isn't as good as last season. I'm not saying Murray is better, but this does at least show he's exploded onto the scene. I need to stop doubting these mobile quarterbacks.

Ooh, also, AJ Brown (Titans) has caught a touchdown in five straight games now.

Now that AJ Klein is Russel Wilsons father, we now must find out which Bill is Kylers dad. But first lets do game picks:
Colts over Titans
Browns over Texans
Football Team over Lions
Panthers over Buccaneers
Giants over Eagles
Packers over Jaguars
Bills over Cardinals (Im more scared for this one than Seattle ngl)
Chargers over Dolphins (Miami has to slow down, right?)
Raiders over Broncos
Seahawks over Rams
Bengals over Steelers
Saints over 49ers
Ravens over Patriots
Vikings over Bears
well, that sucked

These special teams have to get fixed. A blocked punt for a TD(and a shank before that)? Another miss from Ghost? They both need to be cut immediately. This is ridiculous. And Isaiah frikkin Simmons. Our first round tackle. He needs to get his shit together and quick. We went from 5-0 to 6-3 real quick.

He’s doing face of the franchise, which is a little different. You go through the whole draft process.

Titans are in trouble. Notably, we’re 1-3 without Taylor Lewan. Now, that certainly isn’t all because we’re missing him, but I think it’s at least telling that a tackle can have that much impact on a team’s success.

You’re 100% right. He’s fiery and has a nasty streak. I think he’s a bit underrated as a player, but I’m obviously biased.

It looks like Big Ben should be able to play for the Steelers on Sunday. But if he doesn't, that's gonna be the end of the Steelers undefeated streak, I'd almost guarantee it.

Good looking out. Cause playing in Tampa with your starter career mode guy is not working. I can't even make the actual team. Doesn't help that if the opposing defense so much as brushes by the air next to my crappy receivers, they drop the ball.

Joe Burrow has improved a good bit since the start of the season, yeah. Here's a few stats to show how much.

Week 1-3:
Passing Yards: 821
Attempts per game: 47
Passing yp/a: 5.82
TD/INT: 5/1
TD%/INT%: 3.5/.7


Weeks 4-6:
Passing Yards: 786
Attempts per game: 35
Passing yp/a: 7.58
TD/INT: 1/3
TD%/INT%: .9/2.8


Weeks 7-8:
Passing Yards: 655
Attempts per game: 42
Passing yp/a: 7.8
TD/INT: 5/1
TD%/INT%: 5.9/1.1

Ran's shoddy analysis: Burrow's yards per attempt is up almost 2 yards since the start of the season, he's producing more yardage as a result, and he's been really good at not turning the ball over outside a stretch of weeks 4-6. Now, where he's been the last 2 weeks he's tied for 11th in the yards per attempt category. I think that's a pretty important one, personally, and he's 9th in the league in passing, partially because Zac Taylor's been forcing the pass, especially early on (see: 47 passes per game over the first 3 weeks). I think that's sped along Burrow's development, personally. Either way, he's only 8 games into his rookie year, but the Steelers could really use Ben, yeah.
