BTW you know how some people say you can twist stats to say anything? Well here is a classic example I was tempted to use.
"Palmer's career playoff passer rating with the Bengals (66.5) is almost identical to when he was with the Cards (67.1)"
I get all that, and he was truly awful the following week, but you can't erase that one game. Why couldn't he (or anyone else) have that one game with the Bengals?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
