Not that I really care about the interview but why did he continue questioning the Pats & Seahawk fans on Falcon history after they stated they weren't Falcon fans? Seemed like a troll job. Lol. 

 

It tripped me out that the lady from SC was a dang Seahawks fan. I was sitting here thinking to myself "How...?"

Proof or it didn't happen.

Oh my goodness, the fact was in CA and there multiple reports about the noticeable absence of Panthers fans at the events by ESPN and NFL network  if you watched any of the pregame experience you would have heard it too  

denver had a huge following in CA.

Well, duh , of course there would be a lack of Panthers fans in Cali considering its all the way across the country. Also, Denver having more fans at the Superbowl than Panthers fans is also not surprising considering how much closer Colorado was. This video was actually done IN Atlanta, so completely different circumstances.

That's a really old video, and not even from the 2016 season. In fact, I don't even believe that it was made during football season in 2015. The fact that ESPN would take time to pile on the Atlanta fanbase using this video, shows just how petty and sensationalistic they are. Are people suppose to walk around in their fan gear during the middle of the week? Who wears their jersey on 90 degree days in downtown anywhere? I'm not saying the Falcon fanbase is great, and I won't defend them, because I too think the fanbase as a whole could be better. However, this video is ridiculous. You could go to many other NFL cities and this would be the same story there too. I've been to games in Tampa and Jacksonville and they are far worse in showing their support. I saw many empty seats at Steelers games this season. My brother-in-law is a diehard Giants fan and season ticket holder, and he said that you'd be amazed at how many empty seats they have at their games.

      I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
