'Grats, AVG and tell the team thanks for making my buddy from Miami shut up about "one and out"s

Pennington got his butt handed to him quite a few times. Picked off like an orange from the tree. The Ravens force the turn-over and I hope they continue it with the Titans. Next week should be tough. However, the Ravens defense is examplary. Sorry to see the Falcons go and it was an exciting season for them. As a team, I would be very proud of the season they had. They kind of quietly showed up and kicked ass. Next year should be very exciting and fans very excited as well.

Same thing happened on NFL Today on CBS ... It was the sunday morning show the day after the Charger game. Most of the host football experts were in awe that Manning and the Colts could lose a game to a lowly team like the Chargers.

If the Colts had of won in OT they would not have even brought up the subject.

Manning winner of MVP of 2008 season, seven times elected to the pro bowl loses the big one, because of the Chargers winning the coin toss ... BS

They lost period and the running game of the Chargers and the special teams punting the ball behind the ten yard line several times helped a lot.

The Chargers won and may very well go on to win it all, because they are a good team. They've been in a playoff mood for the last four games of the season.

70% of the time the team that wins the coin toss loses the game ... shocked? Me too, but thats what they said on NFL Today sunday morning.

Keep it the way it is ... defense counts not lucky.

Never, EVER, believe what you hear from sportcasters... http://www.maa.org/mathland/mathtrek_11_08_04.html

That 70% statistic is unbelievably incorrect. You sure you heard it right???

[Digital_Trucker]

Perhaps 70% of this year or any one particular year, but looking at one year isn't statistically accurate either.

Well, from 2000 - 2007 60% of the winners of the coin toss in OT won the game. I don't know '08 stats, but just accounting for the games I've personally watched, 70% would be off the charts.

Hey!hey! hey!

No math or statistics allowed in the thread. Some of us have allergies to math!

maybe a little geometry, but no statistics!

Unless the Steelers self destruct, I'd say the Chargers are done. Tenn and Baltimore, your guess is as good as mine. I thin Carolina runs all over AZ. And the Philly game???
