Thought I was hallucinating when I first read this. Two firsts is interesting though. There's no one else on defense we would've gotten remotely...
Am I misunderstanding something here? Sellers had 4 passing attempts his freshman year. I don't think that qualifies as starting and disqualifies...
Is his age a concern at all? Will be 24 by draft time. Generally not a great sign if a guy takes that long to really play well in college. Seems...
I think we're probably going to take one just by virtue of the fact that a young QB usually buys a coach/GM a couple years. These guys are...
I agree that a minimum level of athleticism is desirable (Darnold and Dak for example). I just think athleticism beyond that is overrated for QBs...
Adding Jackson to the list doesn't change the overall point at all. Most of the guys, by far, are still not "dual threat" QBs. Dual threat and...
I didn't advocate for drafting statues, I just said that athleticism beyond a certain minimum threshold is highly overrated. Mahomes isn't a dual...
Yeah I don't really have strong thoughts on Mendoza or any of the other QB prospects yet. Was more speaking generally about why it scares me when...
Yeah I just totally disagree with this framing. The best QBs of all time have been, with rare exception, this exact "process and distribute"...
Raw talent is almost always used in a way that describes physical gifts, but mental talent is absolutely a thing as well and it's by far the most...
This is such an indictment on our QB play. Arian Smith leads all WRs in separation vs. man but is also lowest in the league in yards per route run...
Agree with 90% of this. The only thing, and it's admittedly nit-picky, is that I'd say JD was our most damaging GM as opposed to worst. Mac was a...
Was this inspired by the recent Bill Simmons podcast? He was talking about how the best baseball teams do a good job of memorializing their past...
I was rooting for us to win until it became clear Glenn is not a good coach and Justin Fields is still Justin Fields.
This looks at instances where teams decided to go for it on 4th down. I'm talking about all 4th downs where the decision to go or not is...
I agree that applying analytics to football is more difficult than say basketball or baseball which involve a lot of set pieces/fixed scenarios...
Detroit plays quickly because they always know what the right thing to do is and thus don't have to spend any time thinking about it. They make...
I don't recall how often the Lions go for it on 4th relative to the analytics saying they should, but as of a week or two ago they led the league...
There shouldn't be any indecision. He should have a guy in the booth telling him immediately whether he should go for it or not. That he doesn't...
He came from the organization that popularized going for it on 4th down a lot more often. It's honestly shocking that he doesn't have this stuff...
