Interesting question? I would have assumed most higher passing yard totals were losses, as team are trailing pass and teams winning try to run out the clock.Originally Posted by redietz
But internet search shows a mixed bag. One source says there have been 27, 500 yard games with teams losing 12. Another has the numbers at 25 games with 11 losses. Tonight's game won't be added to the mix, as Winston officially had 497 yards.
I had the over, but ONLY because Druff was so late with posting his pick. Joe Fortenbaugh (espn) had over as his best bet and I like to tag along with him, but I waited to see if Druff or Daly at PFA was going to go under, in which case I would have not wagered. 5 minutes before kickoff with no Druff or Daly pick, I went with Fortenbaugh's over. So I guess I owe credit to Druff for posting his picks 3 minutes before kickoff. I am not sure why he does that, but I am sure it is intentional.
I wouldn't want Winston as my QB, even as a back up. He is good when he is good, but the interceptions, just too much. 30 last year in 17 games. Come on. No team can overcome THAT. same with tonight. Good for 90% of the game. But 3 int's, 2 for TDs more than offsets that. It would have taken a 600 yard game to overcome those ints.
