If anyone thinks that - along with Hollywood breaking on the first play of preseason - didn't have a huge impact on our offensive numbers, please send me the name of your dispensary because you must be smoking/vaping/edible-ing some good stuff.

We scored 27 against a Ravens defense that was playing terrible early in the year.
We scored 26 against a Bengals defense that could not stop shit.
Then we scored 22 against the crappy Falcons on a nationally televised game.
In Rice's final game as a Chief where he was injured we had only scored 10 points against the Chargers until late in the 4th.
Sure, Rice was getting the volume and the fantasy football points.
But it wasn't translating into a powerhouse offense.
