With parity make the edge finer and finer, the distinctions become sharper and sharper.

Back in Priest's day, no way the Ravens were actually as shit-tastic as he made them look. But he sure as shit made them look that way, and with our O-Line then would probably make them look that shit-tastic 8-10 times.

Last year's Giants aren't but a couple of key pieces away from SB champion Giants, but IDing and fixing those pieces are a multi-M$$ job no one is up to at present.

On paper, no way the Texans are as bad as they were last year, but that bad and worse they were.

Heck, heading into the end of a 2-14 season, I still had an aura around them as a team to be contended with, . . . 2-14!!!!!!

Seriously though, the entire league figured out their offensive 'tells' on a scale not seen since Rick Mirer.
