The new bosses tried the same blueprint for the oline as the old bosses and got similar results 🤷‍♂️

The new bosses have tried to put out the dumpster fire left by the old bosses.

Unfortunately they couldn't fix everything in two offseasons.

Sack, hits, and hurrys  can be a bit misleading because some teams have more or less pass attempts then others.  


That same table has a pressure % number that accounts for that.

We are actually 8th worst in the entire league based on that.

 

If you actually look at the table you would see that I added the number of attempts and completions just for you. 

Pressure % is useful but HIDES important data.    Pressure % adds sacks, hits and hurries together, as if they are the same thing.  They are not.

You have to factor in number of attempts also or just the individual numbers lose contect.  Lets put it in practice.

Lets look at your way:

Saints 7-12-9 (sacks, hits, hurries)

Falcons 8-20-11 (sacks, hits, hurries)

You could make the argument the Saints are better at pass protection.

Factor in the number of attempts, pressure percentage.

Atlanta 22.7% which is 14th in the league.

Saints 26.4%, which is 23rd in the league.

Saints are way worse.

Stats without context are useless and often misleading.

LOL You Ignore all the other stats and just look at pressure% and then talk about context... that leads you to the conclusion that the Falcons have a better line the Saints.  Unfortunately the Falcons have a much shorter pocket time and the Saints just have a QB with a very high TT.

You honestly believe the Falcon's line is better than the Saint's OL?

Read.  The. Chart.  I included attempts.

Your desperate search for ONE number like PFF, or in this case pressure% to evaluate causes you to reach bizarre conclusions.

I put the the number of attempts, completions AND YARDS on the chart so you CAN see it in CONTEXT. 

I know in your mind pressure % includes ALL context.  It doesn't.

         Sacks <> Hurries

        Pressure% does not include pocket time.

         Attempts <> Yards

I'm not saying pressure % isn't useful....its better than pff, another single number you worship.

Yes but we are just getting started. The blueprint is out now dude. Hopefully Brown and maybe Christensen. 

 

You keep saying we are an 8 win team. So you have to use anything you can distort, to make yourself feel better.

 

It's one thing for the "Blueprint" to be out there. It's quite another to be able to actually execute said blueprint.

If you have already decided the Saints OL is better than the Falcons why are you even looking at stats?

The Falcons might not have the better perceived OL, or better OL over the past few years, but based on the stats you listed, they have played better during a small 4 game sample.

I'm not looking for a magical single stat, I just said on the chart that you listed the single best metric is pressure %.

Do you not agree with that?  If you don't agree with that which single stat do you think is better?

This is patently false.  These stats include pocket time.

The ironic thing was that we did establish the run.  For most of the first half, we were getting 5-10 yards per attempt.  

Agreed, but with our OL, we need to stay out of obvious passing downs as much as possible.

    • Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself. 
    • Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.
    • That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
