Viniateri career 62.7 from 50 and Tucker 64.7

Viniateri career 84.6 and Tucker 89.4

Viniateri gets more kicks in domes

Sticking with Tucker...he's the best I've ever seen. Viniateri has made the best kick I've ever seen.
Justin Tucker has 13 career FG attempts in domes/retractable roofs, Vinatieri has 12 this year. Tucker has made 88% of his outdoor kicks, Vinatieri has made 81% of his outdoor kicks. Not sure of his outdoor numbers the last 5 years though.

Edit: since Tucker entered the NFL he's connected on 88.5% of outdoor kicks, over the same time frame Vinatieri has connected on 87% of outdoor kicks.

How you can review that play, see Prosise clearly still on top of defenders and reaching the ball over the goal line, and not overturn the call is absurd.

He probably even broke the damn plane to begin with. You waste tons of time reviewing close plays, and then even after review, the calls seem to be wrong more often than not.

I don't agree with going for 2 there but that is today's theme apparently

What a throw by Brady

This game is delivering. Really good to watch weekend of football.

That was absurd. Carroll doesn't like to beat NE apparently.

Even more absurd was the pick play the Patriots were just allowed to run on 3rd and 10.

Refs blow calls so often I'm almost immune to them...see who can withstand.

But yes I get tore up on probably 20 calls every NFL weekend. PI calls kill me with inconsistencies

They just tried to justify it and then Sherman was clearly more than 1 yard beyond the line of scrimmage when he actually got picked.

NE understands how clock control works...Carroll does his part as well. Kinda refreshing

Yes Chris they did. Brady wasn't sneaking in from the 3

NE is so damn lucky. I hope Brady throws a pick at the goal line.

They aren't any luckier than Sherman and Carroll

When will teams stop going to that play? It is so damn hard.

Liked the no call. Two of the game's best, let them go at it. Wish it wouldn't have resulted in Seattle winning, though.

Carroll deserves a kick in the ass for not kicking the PAT a little bit ago. And for throwing at the goal line in the Super Bowl with Marshawn Lynch in the backfield.

RIGGED.

Thought this was a pretty good day of football. I've basically been watching Red Zone all day.

I started doing a top ten power rankings thread then realized I had no fucking idea outside of Dallas, New England, and Seattle. I think them plus Oakland in the conference finals would be pretty good. I'm liking Seattle less and less but they're talented and fun to watch.

4-10 all interchangeable

4. Raiders
5. Chiefs
6. Broncos
7. Redskins
8. Giants
9. Ravens
10. Eagles
11. Texans
12. Lions
13. Falcons
14. Dolphins
15. Cardinals
16. Bills
17. Steelers
18. Titans
19. Colts
20. Chargers
21. Packers

....forgot Vikings, them in there at #16, Bengals?

7-23 would all be tough games to pick

I'd go
#4. Raiders
#5. Falcons
#6. Chiefs
After that, take your pick. Texans, Lions, Giants, Redskins. I'm not sold on anyone from the AFC north or east (besides New England). The Titans and Buccaneers are gaining momentum. The Steelers could/should be up there but have underperformed so far.

Yeah should probably have Falcons a few spots up...I don't think top 5, but higher than I have them.

And Chiefs with same type record as Raiders beat them 29-10 earlier in year....so BCS wise I give them the nod.
