The rest of the season is nothing more than homework.
Speaking of which - I’ve done my weekly assignment.
You sad NFL stats for Week 6.

First and foremost, the refs for not calling a blatant pass interferance on that final play.
I guess there’s more than one New York quarterback who refuses to take some shots.
By the way, a little inside pool on the graph above.

I didn’t manually make the Giants bar red.
So of course they were going to be the team to end Ridder’s cute little home win streak.
Thanks for the shoutout for that one on Pardon My Take PFT!

We’re back Giants fans.
Well, it turns out they were being REALLY nice.
The Giants are an abject failure in prime time.

This is almost intentful.
But wait a minute.
Notice something else about this table?

The only team the Giants were able to beat here were the streak enders themselves - the Washington Commanders.
These guys just don’t miss (except in Week 2, 2021 I guess).
I’ll keep tabs on what team the Commanders face next who have any sort of a notable streak.

The Commanders will take it down.
Thus, continuing their streak of ending streaks.
I’m pretty sure that logic checks out.
The rivalry started off the Chiefs way before sorta evening out.
Look at that staircase at the bottom.
16 evenly laid out steps to take control of the worst active head-to-head losing streak in the NFL.
John Elway should be furious at the guy who ruined the franchise’s dominance over KC.
Someone give him a hot dog costume so he could go find the guy who did this.
The onsides punt is the sad sasquatch of football plays.
That is the ONLY situation this play occurs.
Strangely the next three attempts all occured in back-to-back weeks in 2014.
Green Bay in Week 15, Minnesota in Week 16, and Tampa Bay in Week 17.
Converting the onside punt might very well have never happened for all I know.
This has to be the unicorn of football plays.
I think you automatically win a wild card spot if it’s possible for you to convert it.
Make it happen Roger!
That’s the only way some of our teams have a chance at this point.
That’s it for Week 6.
