Well at this point he would look pretty foolish to argue otherwise, stating the obvious really, but at least he admitted it.

 

Having been a fan of Olsen before the trade (wanted to draft him), I knew it was a mistake by the Bears as soon as I heard the news, but their loss was our gain. Greg is one the best TE's in the game, and a great person, arguably the best trade the Panthers have ever made.

Thor is a big part of our offense along with Superman and Optimus Prime.

Sure, he's not 6'7" and doesn't get a ton of yards after contact or run a 4.3 or 4.4, but Olsen is Cam's security blanket and makes some outstanding plays at times.

He's 6'6" and ran a 4.51, so I guess you're technically right.

      They use stats to create the basis of their grading system but the stats based on the outcome of the plays (that aggregate into what we football fans call "stats") are not incorporated into the grade. That's the best I can do in terms of explaining this to you. I've tried, every link from PFF has tried, yet you just keep on keeping on. LOL

      PFF uses the term "context normalized-scoring," which is based upon statistics. Hell, any serious metric or analytic systems are based upon stats and expectations, and looks at what players do against those expectations, but If you don't think that stats play any part in a players grades, be wrong. At the end of the day, it's heady anyway, so everyone is not going to understand everything. I'm done with this conversation for now. But just know, it's OK to be wrong.

      It's hilarious watching you crash out while being completely wrong. Every link you posted regarding player grades specifically told you that they aren't incorporating stats into these grades, that it's based on their evaluation individual plays. That sent you scouring the internet where you came back with soccer grades as some type of gotcha before you shifted to pass protection grades where you misunderstood that they were using stats to create the basis of their grading system but not in the actual actual creation of the player grades. Pointing that out sent you back to the internet to dig some more where you came back with their "Advanced Coverage Grade" metric which is separate from their player grade.
