Daaaaaang! How fitting that the first post I see the new bling bling is a post defending our franchise qb vs an opponent!

Funny how the Seahawks fan doesn't acknowledge that we beat basically the same Seahawks team last year with Rex Grossman--in Seattle.
Sure they added Russell Wilson. But, we added RGIII & Alfred Morris. They will come back down to earth soon enough. |

You're right, were only 4-11 against the redskins all time.... except every time we've met in the playoffs the Seahawks have won.
A starting quarterback, a starting middle linebacker, a new starter at linebacker, 2 new starters on our offensive line, and about 2 less injuries are the difference between our team last year and our team this year. On top of all the experience gained being the youngest team in the nfl last year, and the 2nd youngest this year. That game just plain isn't worth bringing up because they were effectively 2 different teams than the ones playing this year. Feel free to gloat about beating us last year though, I'll be plenty content in keeping our playoff win-streak against the Skins going.  |

Aren't those things the same? How are you making the case for them being different? |
Maybe, maybe not. They could be different, depends on the base. |
Huh? A ratio is a proportion. It is one number compared proportionately to another number. As Opie Taylor said, "Poor Horatio, only half a boy." |
I can see a way out for Bru but it's got nothing to do with a base. We are not talking about exponential functions. I'll leave it to Bru if he wants to explain/wiggle.
Regardless, Griff is about as accurate as anyone right now. He is often "throwing guys open" and he does it so often it is clearly not luck. |

You can thank me later, Bru!  |

I bring it up for the same reasons why you reference the 2 playoff victories. Those were 2 different teams too. 2005 & 2007 was a long time ago.
We have a revamped WR corps this year to go along with a new QB and new RB. Our offensive line was musical chairs all last year. This year, they started 15 games as a unit--then rushed for 268 yards with a replacement at LG last week. |

I was saying that if RGIII took more shots down the field, I'd expect to see a higher ratio of INTs to TDs.
. . . And that it is "hard to think" he could keep the same ratio of INTs to TDs if he was throwing downfield more.
Two sides of the same coin. I guess I was only saying one thing, whether it's a "proportion" or "ratio": more attempts would equal more INTs to TDs.
I dunno. Made sense to me when I wrote it and still makes sense to me now. But maybe I am confused and beyond help.  |
