This entire season has felt like the playoffs for the Sun. Mostly due to my own team's sucking though haha. At least the team should have a long time to reflect on the season this year.

GG Hornets... defense definitely picked us up this game, while our kicking game let us down once again. Good luck the rest of the way...

Good game Orlando, tough defense you have. Glad to win but it was costly, losing 3 OL to injury.
Thx. Next steps will be building a decent offense.
With 5 weeks remaining in the 1994 season, I take a detailed look at 2 quarterbacks tied together since being drafted in 1983 and both chasing history.
QB Jon Snow QB Tony Dean
Both were drafted in the 1st round of the 1983 draft.
Snow 1.6 Dean 1.32
Snow started from day 1 while Dean had to wait a season before getting the keys to the car.
Starts Snow 176 Dean 166
attempts Snow 7,302 (+1,017) Dean 6,285
completions Snow 4,622 (+381) Dean 4,241
Passing yards Snow 54,645 (4th Alltime) Needs for 3rd 531 yards Needs for 2nd 5638 yards Needs for 1st 9587 yards
Dean 54,068 (5th Alltime) -577 Needs for 3rd 1,108 yards Needs for 2nd 6,215 yards Needs for 1st 10,164 yards
Completion percentage Snow 63.3% (9th Alltime among top 40) -4.2% Dean 67.5% (1st Alltime among top 40)
Yards per attempt Snow 7.48 (12th Alltime among top 40) -1.12 Dean 8.60 (2nd Alltime among top 40)
Sacks/yards lost Snow 112 (6th least among top 40) Snow 1149 (8th least among top 40) + 39 Dean 73 (3rd least among top 40) Dean 745 (3rd least among top 40)
Net yardage (passing yards-sack lose yardage) Snow 53,496 (3rd Alltime among top 40) +173 Dean 53,323 (4th Alltime among top 40)
Interceptions thrown Snow 245 (8th most Alltime) +92 Dean 153 (32nd most Alltime)
TD/INT NET balance (TDs-INT) Snow 243 (2nd Alltime) Dean 324 (1st Alltime) +81
QB rating (QBR) Snow 94.31 (6th Alltime among top 40) -15.00 Dean 109.31 (1st Alltime among top 40)
It's now just all a question of how long does each quarterback continue to play? Snow is signed through 1996 and Dean through 1997 but it all depends on each quarterbacks desire to continue.
Jon Snow won an MVP in 1992, the Allpro in 1992 and went to 3 World Bowls where he went 0-3 including a 1988 lose head to head with Dean. He may wish to extend his career in search of that elusive ring.
Tony Dean has won 3 MVPs (85,86,91), 5 Allpros (85,86,89,90,91) and went to 3 World Bowls where he went 3-0 including a 1988 win versus Snow. Dean has plenty of individual and team hardware and safely makes the Hall of Fame if he retired after this season with little lacking on his resume.
As it stands now, Snow maintains a lead in the raw numbers especially the big two (passing yards/TD passes) while Dean leads the other measurables (yards per attempt/interceptions/QBR) but both are clearly gonna end their careers tied together....in the Hall of Fame.
