Let's talk Advanced Stats and eventually make our own so we can sell it to Disney and make a lot of money. Examples of our competition: DVOA DVOA is a method of evaluating teams, units, or players. It takes every single play during the NFL season and compares each one to a league-average baseline based on situation. DVOA measures not just yardage, but yardage towards a first down: Five yards on third-and-4 are worth more than five yards on first-and-10 and much more than five yards on third-and-12. Red zone plays are worth more than other plays. Performance is also adjusted for the quality of the opponent. DVOA is a percentage, so a team with a DVOA of 10.0% is 10 percent better than the average team, and a quarterback with a DVOA of -20.0% is 20 percent worse than the average quarterback. Because DVOA measures scoring, defenses are better when they are negative PRO FOOTBALL FOCUS: I have no idea what their secret sauce is but the good news is after reading this, neither do they https://www.pff.com/grades PFF employs over 600 full or part-time analysts, but less than 10% of analysts are trained to the level that they can grade plays. Only the top two to three percent of analysts are on the team of “senior analysts” in charge of finalizing each grade after review. Our graders have been training for months, and sometimes years, in order to learn, understand and show mastery of our process that includes our 300-page training manual and video playbook. We have analysts from all walks of life, including former players, coaches and scouts. We don’t care if you played. ESPN QBR WTFBBQ ESPN’s Total Quarterback Rating (Total QBR), which was released in 2011, has never claimed to be perfect, but unlike other measures of quarterback performance, it incorporates all of a quarterback’s contributions to winning, including how he impacts the game on passes, rushes, turnovers and penalties. Also, since QBR is built from the play level, it accounts for a team’s level of success or failure on every play to provide the proper context and then allocates credit to the quarterback and his teammate to produce a clearer measure of quarterback efficiency. --‐---- There's some others too but the main point is the market is ready for a Grand Unified Theory of Football: a way to rank QBs based on Defenses, Defenses based on Special Teams, and Special Teams based on the sales of alcohol in the third quarter. We can do this. To do list: - Quantify the Eye Test - Qualify the Gut Check - Put the Science back in Who's Hot and Who's Not - invent the Kirk Cousins Modifier that explains the inverse relationship between Skill and When The Lights Getting Too Bright on a Monday Night sweet thursday fucked around with this message at 16:54 on Nov 30, 2021 |

That's a good point. - Petition the NFL to add more games to the season so we have a bigger sample size.
