Bad, very bad!
I do think there's a possibility some of these guys say that just to avoid pushback from...well, the people who would push back on saying you got the vaccine.

I don't think it's most of them unfortunately. Tyrod almost died by letting a Chargers team doctor pierce his chest with a needle in order to try to play a game. Not getting a normal rear end shot or two in order to help keep everyone safe would be (probably is) very disappointing.

Cam said the same thing and it’s because he’s not vaxxed. Dak probably isn’t, either, because there is so much anti-vax bullshit out there on social media that they follow/use. Tiktok and instagram are loving lousy with covid vaccine lies.

How are the Rams the only team favored against TB? Like even betting wise, I don’t get why that would be the game people would bet against the previous champs.

There's a rumor that the NFLPA is now telling players to use the "personal decision" line no matter what as to not offend those idiot anti-vaxxer fans, which is pure :psyberger:.

Because the Rams are going to be very good and it's a cross country road trip. If it was on a neutral field, the Bucs would be favored by 2.

But being favored in 17 games isn’t the same as being predicted to win 17 games total.

You could convert these odds into implied winning percentages and multiply through to get how many games each team is projected to win if you really wanted to, in fact, and yes it would be well below 17.

Yes.

Everything they've said has been leading towards Dalton starting week one.

He was probably promised at least that when they got Fields

It’s made even dumber by the fact that Dion Dawkins practically just had a bad case of COVID! Beasley’s the worst of the bunch though, because he actively spreads misinformation rather than just consuming it.

CPOE is pretty simple - across the league, passes to certain depths have an average completion percentage. (5 yards deep would be 85% or something, 15 yards would be like 55%, etc.)

So if a QB completes passes at a higher percentage than league average, they have a positive CPOE.

Its a way of identifying QBs who have high completion % as a result of a bunch of dump offs, and giving greater weight to QBs who regularly complete more difficult passes.

Math shows that CPOE is a greater indicator of QB skill and future performance as opposed to raw completion percentage.

Same, but for some reason Drew Lock is in top right and the top left at the same time. When I look at one spot he moves to the other, I don't get it.
