The flip side is the more you put out there, the more stuff your opponent has to prepare against in a limited time. It can create a paralysis by over analysis situation.

I heard someone on The Ticket mention this possibility a few days ago. I thought it was a completely preposterous idea 10 games into the season but what the hell do I know. We will find out in 2 weeks.

They are taking off 2 of the tarps they normally use to cover seats.

Congrats Del. A great day for the Scuderia. Should’ve happened long ago.

I don’t post on Twitter but it’s become my main aggregator of sports news and it’s real time.

Important to know what PFF grades account for and what they don’t. It’s grown on me quite a bit over the years but I don’t feel it’s ideal to use on its own to judge how someone played. PFF grades by using a 2 to -2 score for each player on each play. They add them up and then use a formula to put them into a 1-100 scale for comparison purposes. It is a cumulative total where the very best play still only counts for 2 points. It’s very possible for a player to make 2 terrible plays that lose the game and still have a high score. The opposite is also true and a player can make 2 massive plays to win the game but still score low. Overall impact on the final score of the game may not end up being as important as how their average was throughout the entire game. I like that it does account for what a player is expected to do in a situation. If a player drops a wide open pass, the QB still gets a good grade. He’s also downgraded if a WR makes a miraculous catch on a poorly thrown ball. It also has a formula that does take some account for game situation and will give a boost for making plays in crucial times. It does not account for who a particular player is going against. A WR going against Amani Oruwariye will be judged the same as a WR going against Jalen Ramsey. This is a pretty big flaw. One common complaint is they don’t know the play call so they can’t 100% account for what each player is supposed to do on every play. The reality is they watch enough football to have a pretty good idea what the assignment should be on 95%+. It’s not as super complex as we may think it may be once they break it down. This isn’t really an issue for me anymore.

Lots of crazy happening in this sport.

Personally, I like Penix Jr, DTR, and KJ Jefferson. I think one of these 3 could be the next Dak Prescott prospect, a guy who gets labeled with accuracy issues in college and sheds that as a pro and becomes a stud.

In a normal year this would be pretty accurate. This is a crazy year in the NFC and somehow 1-7 doesn’t put them completely out of playoff contention. 8-9 may or may not be good enough to qualify but it will definitely keep them in the hunt all the way to the last week. There are lots of winnable games left on the docket. The focus needs to be on wins and not draft picks.

The records mean nothing. They are they exact opposite schedule wise with the Giants playing one of the easiest and the Lions one of the hardest. These are probably two evenly matched teams. Two weeks in a row the Lions have made plays to win games at the very end. That’s a good sign that maybe things are coming together. 3 in a row heading into Thanksgiving would really be something.

Posted in the wrong thread. Edited to say: Fuck The Packers

Ragnow left the stadium in a walking boot. It appears to be the same foot that has given him problems for 2 years. Fingers crossed it’s not a major injury.

Wow. Checco is right to be pissed especially after what he did for him last year in Abu Dhabi but that comment needs to stay behind closed doors. The reality is Max is Red Bull Racing and Perez is a replaceable 2nd driver.

Hopefully a turning point for the franchise. Let’s start winning more of these close ones

Great win! Playoffs here we come!!

Fields is going to turn it over! Cmon defense

Unbelievable!

Swift and ASB need to see the ball a lot this drive.

They are going to run the ball and use clock. Everyone knows this. We need to stop it.

Now we have a close game. Let’s see who shows up the rest of the way. Helps we are playing another dogshit team.

Okudah!

That was all Mitchell! Great blocking

Their #33 is pulling an Amani. Love it
