He stops getting opportunities as a QB2 because he isn't good at playing QB in the NFL. And he consistently gets outplayed by guys who are...
Fields is a fumble machine though.
It's a lot easier to trade to 10 than to 3. The value of pick 3 is so much higher than pick 10. And while a lot of people rag on Buffalo for...
Sure...more attempts with a healthy Warren and Gainwell + Rodgers would have been better too. But would a Najee-led backfield have been better...
Where did you find this? That's great data. It will never happen, but I wish they would plot the distribution of yards on every carry somewhere....
But you were talking about changing the number of carries in the YPC (the denominator in the mean). I was describing to you how increasing the...
Mason was playing well (outside of the game in the monsoon). It was nice for him to hit a hot streak right before he had a contract to sign. The...
It's very obvious that the number and length of the long runs that skew the mean upward will determine how much they skew the mean by. As will...
I agree that benching Pickett for Mason wasn't about Mason being good. It was about Kenny being bad. Which is something that several teams seem...
Your hypothesis here is testable. It wouldn't be if all we had was YPC. But we have YPC and succ%. If you are correct, YPC would be higher, but...
We didn't use it as much as last year because our defense sucked at getting off the field. It's not the only metric, but our D ranked 26th in...
Thanks Felt. I think it was sorted wrong when I looked at it for 2024...oops. :facepalm: I do think I got the rankings by yards correct for the...
Who knew that "carries" was an "advanced metric"? Also, Scribe still doesn't seem to understand the definition of the word "subjective".
I agree that it's an important position and I really hope that we don't lose him. And it's another example of how it would be so awesome to be a...
I think it's mostly the last part. Just like he really avoiding saying that we benched Pickett when he was sitting on the bench because Rudolph...
Re: You can do this for every player. You are the one that brought up Walker. Even though it runs counter to your argument about paying RBs...
Is it worth pointing out that you were a big advocate of running it back (and giving the RB1 a raise) after a 2024 season where we ranked 25th in...
FWIW, I thought it was reported that Weidl puts the board together, but isn't one of the decision makers on the individual picks (collaboration...
As shown in the previous thread, our RBs were better at running the ball this year than our RBs last year. It's only by a very surface level look...
If we make the SB in your scenario, I await all of your posts pointing out how we did it with Tomlin's players! IMO, Tomlin leaves the team with...
