Football Outsiders Final Stats

There are some neat statistics by the mathematicians at footballoutsiders.com. For those that don't really know what they mean, they measure the value a player brings to his team per play over the average player. Other than that I don't know how to explain this stuff.

Deangelo finishes as the best/most valuable RB and Stewart is top 15.

Steve is the fourth most valuable WR

Rhys Lloyd is extremely valuable. We finish as the best kickoff coverage overall and it isn't even close. Sadly the punt coverage is one of the worst.

The big uglies had the #1 power success. This is awesome after such dismal performance last year.

This stuff is interesting for those of us that like numbers. Congrats Panthers, you had a good season. Now let's continue this through the postseason.

and Peterson isnt top 10? i dont know about these "exclusive stats"

Yeah I remember reading some discussion about that. But, remember these stats are value per play. Peterson mixes getting stuffed for a couple plays then breaking a 20+ yard run. Partly because defenses key on him and partly because he looks for the homerun most of the time.

    • I wouldn't argue he's handled things well in Cleveland since his draft tumble. I give him credit for that. Draft eval really only matters if they got it right. And with Shedeur, I think time will beat out that they did. Like others, he'll leave behind some cool highligh reels, but something less than a great career. 
    • I don't put Bryce any higher than that, but I don't put Murray up there either.  And we've touched on the reason: an unfortunate tendency to choke. You can have all the best stats in any game you play in, but if you choke at a crucial point and lose the game, guess how much those stats count for? And I will at least admit this when it comes to Bryce: his game performances of late definitely don't reflect choking. Just the opposite, in fact.
    • It's a matter of perspective. Hell, TB12 was skipped over 198 times for example. I mean, Montana, Wilson, Dak and a few others were skipped many times before they were drafted. Warner and Romo went undrafted for Pete's sake. Don't get me started on misses (and not just QBs).  His attitude didn't help, but it was reported just as much that scouts/execs didn't necessarily believe he was a day one or two guy. Like I suggested, we'll never know the whole story. Moreover, you can't get around the fact that he's handled his situation in Cleveland with flying colors. That's been widely reported as well.
