Two worrisome stats that stand out:

The last 4 15-1 teams to play have lost.

The Cards are 35-0 when leading in the 4th quarter.

We're playing football. Analytics don't mean anything.

But, but ....we're 16 and 1.

Encouraging to me. That is one trend that won't continue much longer.

I'm not sure if I have the right but it looks the money 60 / 40 for the Panthers to cover..

does capitalism Trump analytics ?

 

I know, I did something there

How many trends have we bucked this season?

Vegas has wanted Pats and Cats before playoffs. Odds for the payouts favor Vegas.

We are 16-1 not 15-1.

That first point isn't analytics it's a coincidence.

As for the second. This season we are undefeated when leasing in the 4th. This is the only relevant season.

Those type of stats are useless. Things like 60% of 3rd down passes go to Floyd is useful from a game planning standpoint. Pollard is paid by a lot of teams to provide that type of info broken down in much greater detail.

But the Panthers are 16-1. They are undefeated at home. Carson isn't mobile. The Panthers strike quick. But we'll go with what they say.
