MIA/NE: Notable facts/stats

This stat stood out from reading that (NICE article btw)

The team is currently +2 in turnover ratio.

What stands out to me is that it's been a long time since we kicked someones ass.

Nice work George, thanks.

Seriously! Wasn't Gus our QB the last time we won a game handily? That seems like forever ago.

I can't believe Ricky never had 3 rushing TDs in the same game in 2002 or 2003.

And I don't think that is Sharmon shaw's legal name any more. :shifty:

Also, it is ridiculous that that formation was so successful considering Pennington effectively made it 10 vs 11.

The most important stats for me today.
We won the TOP battle.
Our DL won the battle in the trenches.
We had no turnovers.
We scored TD's instead of settling for FG's

:D

• Brown threw a touchdown pass for the first time "in his life". Not college, not high school, not even Pee Wee football, where he played quarterback.

i found this interesting. Never knew ronnie played QB. Of course i never bothered to check out his peewee career, still interesting. I was wondering that watching the game today, he looked like a natural back there, like a college QB running the option, and that throw to fasano, was very nice for being on the run.

the +2 turnover ratio, is very big for us right now.

Well as a team in the NFL if you can force turnovers and not turn the ball over yourself you will win games. It doesn't matter how much talent the other team has, everyone in the NFL is a pro. Giving yourself more chances to score means you will most likely win more games. As does giving them less chances to score.

I think Woodley had five TDs a couple of times (win over the Rams in '80, loss to the Cowboys in '81).

that is awesome.

Looking back, he sure did in that 1980 game. Good memory!

Interesting stats.

Technically, I'd say it was Joey Harrington. 21-0 The Patriots! Our last win before the Baltimore game last year. Funny enough the patriots' last Regular Season lost ... before this one!
