Week 9 Score Update

Well, how do you like that?  Both prime-time weekend games get within a touchdown, with the Sunday nighter with a tying field goal at the gun!!

NINE of the 13 games played this week did that.  That's a total of 67 out of 132 - more than half of all the games (and this is with two teams headed for 0-16, one may well heading to 16-0, and Seattle and Denver) within one score.

Nothing further on the Cliffhanger Index (though I should count reasoned attempts at the gun which fail), so 4 for a total of 30.  A little less than usual on that end.

As for the score itself...

Average total for the week:  FIFTY-ONE POINT THREE.  (51.31)

Highest scoring ANY WEEK since Week 7 2010.

9 Week total average per game:  46.84 (almost a point and a quarter OVER last year).

I've talked to some people about it, and it's two factors:

1) The Rule Changes

2) Pieces of Shit on the Field Who Don't Know How To Play Football
