No, you forgot. Training camp reps. Remember?

Reps are needed to hit wide open WRs?  Who knew?  Some of his throws yesterday were simply arse. Protection, check.  Route recognition, check.  WR beat his man, check. Baker able to complete the process, nope.  When 90% of the the process to complete the pass is there and just the ability do what any NFL QB should be able to do and hit a wide open WR is not be done, you can't go back 6 weeks ago and complain about splitting reps.

You missed the sarcasm.

Its still early in the season, but at this point, no team looks dominant.  Well other than the Eagles, and I am still not sure about them yet.  

The NFL is set up where parity is king.  Yes, there were some upsets yesterday and more to come. There are a few elites clubs, a few garbage teams and a WHOLE LOT of mediocre teams.  That's why being a basement dweller is so damn frustrating.  We can't even get to mediocre.

My bad, I usually pick up on it, but the sunshine crew in here this morning has my sarcasm radar skewed.

I mean pretty much everyone is taking this win with a grain of salt. There’s a lot left to prove.

but it is also possible to see some good things we did yesterday unless you are just a miserable person

    • Per Adam Schefter: https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/1920523706624823739 Expected, but just want to rub it in here.
    • 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.
    • 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.
