ForJimmy

I keep looking at mock drafts out of habit. It’s mid December and we are very much in the playoff hunt. 7 wins is still a good season all things considered but I want to see how they handle playoff pressure.

I probably prefer Cooley but both would be solid options

I think it's known he is hurt but how hurt is the question. It's a left shoulder injury from week 12.

Maybe or maybe he gets paid more to be a DC here vs there. Plus the defense will be his baby vs Evero's wherever he goes. Definitely not uncommon to promote assistants when DCs or OCs leave. Canales will pretty much give him full control of the defense here like he does Evero.

Idzik would be extremely green for a HC job. He doesn't even call plays aside from a few preseason games. Evero probably deserves his shot and I think we would be a comp pick in return. Jonathan Cooley could take over as DC if needed.

I'd love it. Let the coach scramble begin!

Wouldn't that fall on Morgan and Tillis?

If you actually edited those games out every time you mention his last season stats then more power to you. That's not the norm as most people just pull the stats from major sites like ESPN and NFL.com. Have fun looking at your posts for it. Maybe you will see how fixated you have become on a certain topic.

Exactly. Which means data.... doesn't always tell the whole story! Congrats we are officially fully circle again. Love talking in circles with you. Data without context is pointless. You can also skew it to tell whatever story you want, like looking at just games a player starts, GWDs, PFF etc...

Regardless most lists are not removing data from games players missed part of whether they got hurt or came off the bench. I don't think people are removing the game Bryce came off the bench when they are looking at this totals last year. It's typically cumulative.

What do you think that means?

It's pretty simple as they are very close. When you look at season totals Bryce barely beats him in a few stats. When you look at starts he barely beats Bryce. Most of the major sites have their data listed by season totals but you are looking at starts as it helps your case. That's all. Regardless they are playing close with Bo Nix right there as well.

Wins losses aren't really on him. They are what 1-6, 1-7 in games he didn't play. Again looking at just stats without context is not always the best indicator. He did what was needed to beat the Bucs last week including a final drive to run out the clock, he picked us apart and he played well against Miami. The ATL game was pretty bad but overall he has played well these last 4/5 games. If you are wanting to look at wins they are 2-2 over their last 4 after a 1-8 start.

ESPN has this qualifier. To qualify, a player must have at least 14 attempts per team's games played Statistics are updated nightly NFL.com does not and it has Gunner and Cam Akers with the best rating. Just another reason why pure stats are silly. Funny enough neither of them remove data from games players didn't start or finish. Weird right?

I would. Give Shough another offseason and see if he can keep getting better as they build the roster. Honestly Rattler wasn't horrible and could develop into a nice backup as well.
