Not sure what white was thinking , he's surrounded by 5 defenders just go down and protect the ball vs fight for another yard. In overtime you turn the ball over you lose the game simple as that. Not sure what he was thinking

Worked out well, Butler is a great little running back, always surprises me how easily he can be neutralized and taken out of a game by plugging the gaps.

Butler is great for fantasy this season (so far).  He's not always been that way.

However, I will note that his game-tying TD climb-the-ladder in the EZ was astounding for a short RB.  Most RBs don't make that catch.  I doubt Brady or AH could do it.

Those are Tim White's last three years. Which one is the garbage year?

Hmm, he's been pretty toxic in fantasy the last 2 seasons.  Maybe his production comes in bursts, which is bad for fantasy.  Kind of like WPG RECs, one insane game followed by 3 games of nothing.

Because it was declined or because it was already on the 1 YL?  Declined wouldn't "count" as a penalty, right?

A Q1 holding penalty by Coulter Woodmansey was declined. In the CFL we do include declined penalties in the totals as a penalty of 0 yards.

Let's say a 🇬🇧 based company hires programmers in 🇪🇪 to develop a stats system for 🇺🇸 football. Several years later, they hand that stats system over to programmers in 🇱🇹 to modify the system for 🇨🇦 football.

Guess what? Mistakes happen. Including declined penalties in the penalty totals is low on the to do list.

Then to me HAM had a perfect game with no penalties, because personally I don't think a declined should count in this case.  Or, to look at it another way, they had a 0 penalty yard game, also good enough for me!

How many times does a 0 yard penalties game occur a season?  Basically never?
