Worst legs ever

2016 - Tore ACL after 4 games
2017 - Destroyed knee, 1 game
2018 - Tore achilles, first day of training camp
2019 - Ankle injury, 1 game
2020 -
2021 - Tore ACL, 1 game
2022 - Tore achilles, in practice

Kinda healthy for 2 seasons (2015, 2020) since he also missed most of his rookie year with various injuries .

I hope this dude is capable of moving around under his own power as he gets older. Holy poo poo.

Is drops a good stat or a bad stat? Like if the pass is awful but the WR gets his hand on it for a second is it a drop?

As I can tell drops are more or less fine as a stat. They don't charge you with a drop if you get your hand on a ball. Its more like if it's in the breadbasket or if you clearly have two hands on it and try to turn and run before you get a hold on the ball and you muck it up. Like I don't think a pass thrown two feet behind the receiver that he got his hands on and maybe could have come up with is usually counted as a drop.

This is not necessarily how it is announced, or how people talk about it, but I think that's mostly how the actual stat works.

He's not even 32 yet, he definitely needs to be thinking about not being in a wheelchair long-term by 35 more than still playing past that year if he hasn't already started by now

That's the point. If OBJ very publicly said "convert all my salary to Meta stock" then absolutely people would be talking about how much money he lost too. The point is that you don't see so many public figured shilling for specific stocks, but when they shill for a virtual currency it's clear they have been convinced their involvement will result in artificial inflation in value.

Crypto is insanely stupid but the thing with OBJ was probably advertising deal with CashApp and I’m sure he got paid for it. Look at this and tell me this isn’t just Guerilla marketing

I wonder if this is one of those old school 'memo them to death' things Hoover used to do. Like, just send absolutely everything in a wave and hope in a few years no one will notice whatever you find. Or you get fired in the meantime.

e: AG should crowdsource this for tips. I'll read 10 pages of random NFL emails and texts or whatever for free and let them know if I see anything weird. (I know this is probably not legal but it'd be fun)

Trying to eliminate luck from the equation so you can better evaluate players is a perfectly good thing to try to do

Yeah, I mean it's completely true that when an opponent drops an int, or their receiver drops a pass, you didn't do anything, they just hosed up. Field goals are... iffier, your rush can pressure them, stadium absolutely matters, etc, and fumble recoveries are trickier. Some fumbles are way more likely to be recovered by the O / D then others, so you do need to measure where it is and the situation. (A fumble on a shotgun snap 5 yards behind the LOS will almost always be recovered by the offense, a fumble 5 yards behind the LOS on a blown up draw or screen pass, far less often for example)

Nah not interns, the kids fresh out of law school who have to log 6,000 hours in their first year of employment. The law firm will probably bill them all out at $200/hr.

Has Josh even practiced? IMO, this reeks of lame gamesmanship and I would be shocked if Case Keenum wasn't under center Sunday.

But ooof, I'm not looking forward to what Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen are going to do to our lovely depth safeties.
