Alright I hate to do this but I think I'm going to retire PPYA halfway into the season. I've been trying to make up reasons why the quirks in it happen but this is the week that officially broke...

Another crazy week in the NFL, with some really unexpected upsets. That put PPYA at 7-6 last week. Not so hot but really, who predicted Houston over Jax, TB over Philly or KC over San Diego?...

Not such a good showing for predictions in week 6, going 6-7. That puts PPYA at 43-28 for weeks 2-6 (no week one since there were no stats for rankings yet). That's .606, or 14th on the King...

PPYA Rankings went 10-4 for Week 5 games, an improvement over last week's 9-5 and the previous week's 8-6. 37-21 for weeks 2-4 (no week 1 as there was no stats to rank on before then). That's .638,...

New this week: A new #1 and a flaw exposed in the system.The same: Oakland still sucks. Big time.PPYA Rankings went 9-5 for week 4 and 27-17 for weeks 2-4 (no week 1 as there was no stats to rank...

I know this will be tragic news for Colts fans and NFL fans alike, but Jason Whitlock is no longer employed by ESPN. Cincy Jungle has more on this.I'll just say that I'll miss his pining for Jeff...

On time this week! :) PPYA went 8-6 in Week 3 with Week 2 rankings. Not so hot, but it was a wierd week - the home teams went only 4-10 for the week. Let's see how this weeks games changed the...

Sorry for the lateness. There was a tiny change in the NFL stats page code that broke my script and I wasn't able to get it fixed until late last night. But we're all ready now. Read this diary to...

So week 1 is in the books. Time to crunch the numbers and see how the Points Per Yard Look. For a brief intro to what this is read this.No big surprises in this. Hoep you enjoy. And no using this...

Alright so I've been putting this off during the preseason, but a couple years ago I decided I wanted to look at Defensive and Offensive stats in a different way. Most commentators and talk about...

What stats, above all others, bug you when NFL pundits use them to rank teams? if you're like me it's the Total Yards and Total Yards Allowed stats.Before the 2004-2005 playoffs, I decided to look...

Do you listen to the Colts Podcast? It's a weekly podcast. Pretty interesting and hosted by Bob Lamey.http://www.colts.com/sub.cfm?page=broadcast_dynamic&id=132Last week's had Matt Giordano and...

According to Colts.com, the team has signed reserve QB Shaun King to a deal. No info on contract length or value.

Len Pasquarelli did an excellent profile and update of Joseph Addai's progress at Colts' mini-camp over on ESPN.com. Does nothing but make me feel even better about the pick.
