I thought The Golden Calf of Bristol was 2 for 8 for 69 Yards. Which scares me because how can we throw for 212 yards and lose and Denver throw 2 complete passes all day and win. The Golden Calf of Bristol is averaging 10 completions a game, and 6 completions a game when they win. Is our team that bad?

One day people will figure out why the best offenses are ranked by efficiency not yards or attempts. The Golden Calf of Bristol was the most efficient QB in the NFL today 2 completed passes = win. ;)

But to answer your question. Yes we really are that bad. Offenses are best ranked by total scoring efficiency and we are ranked 25th: http://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/yards-per-point

One of the worst offenses in the NFL. We get a lot of yards but we don't score enough points. Our defense is now ranked 20th, so it's now officially quite a bit better than our offense.

An average offense travels 14.2 yards to get 1 point. 100 yards/ 7 points

We have to travel almost 19 yards for the same point, and this doesn't even count turnovers. So when you factor that in, we're no better than a team like Indianapolis. Deceiving when you watch them on the field, but very true, and very real. They are incredibly inefficient.

Think of it as an average offense plays on a 100 yard long football field.

But then when our offense gets on, their field is 133 yards long on each drive. So the extra yards we get means nothing to make us better. We need them just to be average at scoring points.

So if a game has 4 scoring TD drives from each team, our offense needs an additional(133) yards to keep up with just an average offense and also score 4 touchdowns.

A very efficient offense like Green Bay or San Francisco they only travel 12 yards for the same point.

So their field is usually only 84 yards long. Imagine what happens then when we face one of these guys.

      I love T-mac but where is the impact from this year's draft?

      Jalon Walker not looking like a bust? That can't be right.

      To be fair. Our GM is the assistent of the worst GM in NFL history.  We pay trillions of dollars on the Oline and cant pass protect or run.  We pay trllions of dollars on the D-dine and cant pass rush.  We cant draft. We are a bad team. With a bad owner and really bad management.

      Stud: WR Tetairoa McMillan In the midst of all the incompetence and mediocrity, there's one shining hope for the future of this franchise. Rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan led the team with six catches and 100 receiving yards. He also had an extremely impressive one-handed catch wiped out becaue he couldn't quite stay in-bounds. McMillan is a bit slower, but there are flashes of some Julio Jones in his game. His route running and YAC ability are both far better than they were advertised coming out of the draft.   Or, you know, exactly what anyone who watched enough of his tape would have known.   Honestly, our Arizona board could never understand this knock on him in the pre-draft process, because we all knew it wasn't true.  And sure, we're fans who watched all his games, but you'd think the experts who supposedly watch all the snaps of these type of prospects would have been seeing it too, it was glaringly obvious to us. Seriously, how many times did I say here that he could run every route needed?  How many times did I talk about his surprisingly good run after catch ability for someone his size?  How he wasn't a burner, but he was amazingly smooth for a 6'5" WR? As I've said, only 2 players from Arizona, both football and basketball, have I ever felt they were 1 million percent can't miss stars in the pros.  T-Mac and Gronkowski, that's it.  One is the greatest TE in NFL history, the other is about to take Smitty's mantle as the Panthers WR GOAT when all is said and done.
