Smartest article I have read on this whole sitation.

Yall should listen to the ringer nfl podcast with mays they didn't spend long talking about tepper but they made me feel immensely better about the whole thing

Basically with the leaving of JR and tepper buying the team we went from the least innovative most outdated conservative franchise to the one that's probably got the most cutting edge guy leading the charge. Teams will model themselves after the panthers once tepper is done. Bet.

The trick with analytics is looking at data and statistical analysis objectively instead of viewing data and statistical analysis in a way to reinforce a bias. That’s the downfall of analytics. Like you can’t say 100% of 1920’s German art students that failed out of class turned into war criminal dictators, therefore let’s stay away from art school dropouts. You need a solid team of people to interpret data from an objective point of view, and use that objective view of statistical data to find an exploitable flaw in the system. That’s where modern analytics can help your team. 

I feel like Rivera WANTED the analytics to fail, and then when he went for it on 4th and 2 and failed he’d say see analytics is garbage. As an organization they need to get passed that mindset IMO, which I hope the new staff does. 

too bad we had the mother fuging god in Cam Newton who could make every 4 down succeed lol

That's because it has gotten soft. 

I don't think, when you honestly look around the league, the rules changes, the shift to flag football in the way things are officiated, I don't think it is fair to criticize one coaching staff.

The entire league is soft any more. It is much less fun to watch.

The 'skin that was ejected for the hit on Olsen, that type of thing happened on a very large number of plays in the good old days. Separated the receiver from the ball.

All these guys flagged for touching the QB, they used to be allowed to assault them. Regularly.

We all joke about keeping Hurney just to make FIRST round picks and nothing else, Tapper might be smart enough to consider that lol
