If Matt Rhule and company are using analytics then they don't understand how to use analytics

I had replied to another thread from the bot but I'm going to make this its own thread.

McAdoo talked about the team's struggles on 3rd down but showed a stunning lack of awareness as to the root of the issue. He talked as if the offense could basically be fixed by simply addressing our inability to convert on 3rd down, but...

Since we've only played two games it was pretty easy to go through the play by plays to look at our 3rd down situations.

Against the Browns' our average 3rd down distance to go was 9.9 yards.

Against the Giants our average 3rd down distance to go was 10.3 yards. 

That is a recipe for failure and if you look at that and conclude that our issue is 3rd down then you're a fuging moron. Our issue isn't converting on 3rd down. Our issue is consistently putting ourselves in low percentage 3rd and long situations and a lot of it comes down to penalty issues.

These guys talk about analytics but it's just talk. They don't know what they're fuging doing if they're actually utilizing analytics

To drive my point home, our 3rd down conversion rate is 26%. Horrible, right?

But, it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect it to be based on 2017 regular season data on 3rd down conversion success based on yards to go which is the only info on the matter I could find with a quick search.

In short, our offensive issue is absolutely NOT converting 3rd downs. We're actually okay there based on the analytics. Not great. Not awful. But fine. Consistently putting ourselves into 3rd and long situations is our issue on offense.

This may point heavily to Orlovski being right about us tipping our hand on offense. You can't really tip your hand on 3rd and long. It's an obvious passing down. Take away our ability to tip our own hand and we're pretty much the overall average offense mose of us expected us to be. Not great. Not awful. But fine.

Someone should ask Rhule about this, since he says we are rushing for 6+ ypc, how do we keep ending up in 3rd and 9+ yards to go situations? 

The whole group is a bunch of idiots and retread losers. 

And No i Do not want to hear from any of these coaches fanboys that they are not bad coaches, if any of these morons were not bad coaches they would be employed on another team , not with Matt Rhules group of losers.

You’re supposed to be laughing remember… not emotionally invested…

I'm a total numbers geek. I actually enjoy analytics. It's not emotional for me. Numbers are what they are and it's fun to look at it. And it's fun to laugh at our staff when they show such blatant ignorance of it while acting like they're out-analyzing the rest of the league while losing 2.5 games for every 1 that they win. 😂

      The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't.

      I really like David Moore. He's a reliable WR. Smart, doesn't drop the ball and he's where he's supposed to be. Now, he ain't gonna route up a DB. He ain't gonna 50/50 ball a DB. He ain't gonna run by a DB either. But he runs a good enough route and catches the ball - definitely an NFL average WR. Every team could use a David Moore. Now if this receiving group can force Dan and Dave to let him go, then this team has come a long way since 2023. A LONG way. But I will say that Horn's speed is a big deal. They don't really have another guy with speed and quickness to blow the top off the defense and make guys miss in space after the catch, though he is still a rookie and hasn't done it in the NFL. If he and Renfrow push Moore out, then we might actually have something gents. Plus I see Renfrow as Thielen's replacement in 2026. I just don't think Coker is the reliable, move the chains guy like Thielen. Could be wrong.
