Brad Rysz has 10 stats you need to know entering NFL Week 7, with whines.
1. Jason Campbell hasn’t thrown an interception this season. Every other starting quarterback has thrown at least two. That’s a pretty miraculous stat. But six touchdowns? Dude, you got Santana Moss, Chris Cooley and Antwaan Randle El. Get ‘er done.
2. The Indianapolis Colts have given up one passing TD this season. For a secondary without Bob Sanders, this is pretty amazing. Think about that if you are deciding to start Aaron Rodgers this weekend.
3. Darren McFadden is averaging 5.1 yards per carry. What happened the one time McFadden carries over 15 times? He ran for 164 yards and a score. His lack of carries makes me want to strangle whoever is coaching the Raiders. Feed McFadden the rock. Now.
4. Reggie Bush has the second most receptions (41) in the NFL. For those in PPR leagues, Bush is THE best fantasy RB you can have. For those in a PPR league that includes kick return TDs…Bush’s value is bigger than Kim Kardashian’s rump.
5. Jason Witten has 152 more yards than Chris Cooley (who is second in tight end receiving yards). Witten is a stud, plain and simple. And the tight end position this season sucks more than my hangover right now. Honestly, trade one of your top receivers for Witten. He’s worth it.
6. Chris Perry has five fumbles this season. Couple that with a 2.6 yards per carry average and you have one really bad running back. Hello, Cedric Benson? You really couldn’t have two worse options. This is why the Bengals suck, people!
7. Earnest Graham leads the NFL with three runs over 40+ yards. I respect Warrick Dunn and his Heroes-like ability to never age, but come on. Graham is averaging 5.6 yards per carry and has only 72 carries on the season, tied for 22nd in the NFL. I don’t own him, but if I did, I’d be really pissed.
8. Joe Flacco has one touchdown to seven interceptions. No real analysis here. Just wanted to throw out how much Flacco has sucked this season. Shane Falco is obviously the better quarterback who has F,L,A,O,C in their name.
9. Drew Brees is completing 71 percent of his passes. Wow. To put that in perspective: If 10 percent of my pick-up lines worked, I’d be extremely successful. 71 percent? That’s just ridiculous. “Hey baby, are you from Tennessee? Cause you are the only Ten-I-See.” Never works.
10. Greg Jennings has 12 catches of at least 20 yards. The next highest is eight. The dude is a stud like Kristen Bell is hot. Makes me want to kill Donald Driver. But that’s neither here nor there.
