Around the NFL - 2013

Not shocking...he's done.

His hip is too bad to be effective. In a game earlier in the year a TE beat him down the sideline and right then I knew he's done

[MDS]

i dont even want to look at the emb right now

[ice grillin you]

i dont know what qbr is and i hate that espn arbitrarily made it up but this still gotta be a crazy number

Colin Kaepernick: 81.7 Total QBR with Vernon Davis on field this season; 13.1 with Davis off field

[SD]

QBR = Quarterback Rating?

[ice grillin you]

yeah but its not the quarterback rating weve known our whole lives....its a new formula espn started up themslves a few years ago because they are self important douchebags

[General_Failure]

That, and they also needed more meaningless, cheap filler and a way to say Tony Romo is better than or worse than people think he is. I forget which way they went with that.

[BigEd76]

Yeah it's not the passer rating thing that goes up to 158.3.  It's some ESPN formula that supposedly is top secret and involves thousands of factors, including GRIT

Scoring: 0-100, from low to high. An average QB would be at 50.

Win Probability: All QB plays are scored based on how much they contribute to a win. By determining expected point totals for almost any situation, Total QBR is able to apply points to a quarterback based on every type of play he would be involved in.

Dividing Credit: Total QBR factors in such things as overthrows, underthrows, yards after the catch and more to accurately determine how much a QB contributes to each play.

Clutch Index: How critical a certain play is based on when it happens in a game is factored into the score.

[QB Eagles]

The league is creating a new weekly system of cross flexing, in which it can take an early game on FOX and flex it into the late-afternoon slot on CBS so more of the country can see it, or vice versa with FOX or CBS getting a late-afternoon game that had been scheduled for an early start in return.

[MDS]

i thought they already did that

[QB Eagles]

They move 1pm games to 4pm, but I'm pretty sure I haven't seen them move CBS AFC games to FOX and FOX NFC games to CBS...

[MDS]

they did it a few years ago for a tebow game and said it was going to be common thing....i guess now its a common thing?

[phattymatty]

weird.

Here's an unusual quirk of the NFL: If the Jaguars beat the Texans, Jaguars move to 3rd in AFC South but retain the #1 pick in draft.

So what you're saying is the Texans are so bad they can't even suck right?

[hbionic]

That's pretty bad.

[ice grillin you]

the six current nfc playoff teams have a combined 27-5 home record

the eagles themselves have four home losses
