Was 17th in rushing DVOA last season, and that doesn't include his pitiful pass blocking and receiving. Walsh gets all the blame for the playoff loss but nobody remembers AP having 23 carries for 45 yards and a fumble...

Hahaha raiders and Seahawks, enjoy losing and being overrated. Disgusting teams (outside of their respective QBs), coaches, and fans

Wentz is a god.

Well I know what my new kickoff strategy will be in Madden 17... New England have worked this out brilliantly!

Helps it when your opponent fumbles it twice

Houston are f'ed. Freaking asshats get shut out and concede 27 points to a 3rd string QB.

Haha yeah and it being the same guy twice. First one he shouldn't have even tried to run it out.

Few ripper early kick-off games this weekend

Lions-Packers - Stafford vs Rodgers, enough said. Also, Jordy. Also, Clay+Ryan+Martinez+Peppers/Perry.
Vikings-Panthers - now that the vikes actually have a good QB, can they take it up to the Panthers? Would be better if it Minnesota, but still. Best LB in the league in one team and the best DB in the league on the other team - and no, they're not Greenway and Boston...plus, no AP = better Vikings.
and Broncos-Bengals - Bengals' great offense vs the Broncos great defense, and the Broncos solid offense vs the Bengals solid defense.

Couple good other games too in Jets-Chiefs and Falcons-Saints (which could end up about 51-48), plus the Cardinals will absolute obliterate the bills which is great.

Vikings will need to do it without running the football. So can Bradford throw reliably enough? We will see.

Bradford is terrible

Does anyone else think that's a bit harsh for a DUI?

The DUI was the final straw, he was probably lucky to make the 53 to start the year.

(etc)

For 2015 he was 17th in rushing DVOA, and then factor in his horrible receiver skills and pass blocking. Only reason he puts up big numbers was because he gets 25 carries a game. Had 45 yards on 23 carries in that playoff game against the hawks, plus a late fumble. You can't build your offense mostly around your RB in this day and age, hence why the vikings haven't done anything with him (1 playoff win in 8 years) and will succeed in 2016 with a competent QB and a non-RB-reliant system.
