Interception King

Mark Stafford, still out with his injured shoulder, looks like he may not be able to keep pace with Jay Cutler for the Interception King trophy. Cutler leads the league with 22, but Stafford is only 2 back at 20. With three games to go, he could do it, but he's gonna have to get in the game and start slinging!! However, the RATIO of TDs to Interceptions is much better (worse) for Stafford- 20 picks and 13 TDs to Cutler's 22 and 19.

Somehow, Cutler is playing for a team with a winning record. That's sort of amazing.

You know what's really annoying? All these stat sites will list the LEADERS for categories, like sacks, and then stop at #20. Dude, I wanna know who #29 is!!!! You really have to do some digging if you wanna be in the basement.

SACK KING

Aaron Rodgers has the most sacks, at 48 sacks, but Jamarcus Russell, who is being passed over for the 3rd-string QB Charlie Frye this week, gets sacked most often, once for every 8 attempts. Have ANOTHER donut, Mr. Russell. This guy is just a bust.

Peyton Manning has a brick wall in front of him. He gets sacked once for every 51 attempts.


Touchdown Vacuum

Well, guess who wins here, too? Jamarcus Russell clocks in with .......drum roll please.....TWO TOUCHDOWN passes for the whole damn season. Drew Brees has 32. That's just beyond comprehension. 2 TD passes for 11 games (he did play the 2nd half last week, so I'm counting it.) Gradkowski, withe the same team, got SIX in 2 1/2 games.

The only reason Jamarcus doesn't have the Interception lead is because his throws are SO FAR OFF that nobody but nobody is anywhere near them. Plus, he never gets any first downs, so he just doesn't get the reps!

I rest my case.

  1. No kidding about Jamarcus throwing into the Twilight Zone. I watched a game earlier this year and saw his passes bouncing on the turf like a line drive up the gap. I mean, nobody was within 15 yards of the ball.

    Ground rule doubles.

    Raiders goin' down this weekend!

  2. Charlie Frye is the QB for the Raydurz. Wild Card. The glimmer of hope that was Gradkowski (Mr. Cellar) WAS too good to be true for the Silver and Blacked Out.
