And the thing that happened is the thing that makes you wonder, oh, wait, did it all just come apart because they're trying to beat the Chargers and they can't do anything offensively and they lose at home?

16 to 13 to the chargers and at the end of the game he's getting hurt none of you guys had that either right that we even if they were eliminated we would have think thought of that as anti-climax but we wouldn't have thought oh wait a minute what does this mean until the middle of next year oh wait their defensive coordinator and their coach are super old do they even want to part

of whatever is the problem with how many people they're paying guaranteed money when they can't get out from under what this season was.

What I'm telling you though is that team was not as bad as its record and you seem to object to what I'm saying that winning one score games isn't an ability.

Minnesota had it last year and then they went to the playoffs and they didn't have it anymore.

Last year they were great at one-score games, but this year wasn't.

What happened to the ability?

If it's an ability, what happened to it?

No, they did.

Okay.

They did.

They've got a great quarterback.

Look, what tilts the odds in your favor on one-score games is do you have a great quarterback?

So yeah, if you've got a great quarterback, you're more likely to win one-score games.

But this year, Mahomes is a great quarterback and wasn't able to win them because it's not an ability.

Denver just beat Green Bay, which was a real... Denver's average margin of victory during this winning streak, during the 11 wins, is 7 points.

It's the smallest one ever for this kind of winning.

Okay.

Ever.

They're not dominating people.
