Solid Breakdown of Bryce's Poor Performance/PFF Stuff

Recommended Posts

All of you who keep posting up these PFF numbers, this is why I don't pay much attention if any to all that stuff.  Give me the real stats!  Give me the real performance of a player.  Stop all this moneyball stuff.  The A's never won anything on that stuff.  If I 'm not mistaken, we probably got former PFF employees in our scouting department.  And the results of that seem to be showing.

we have a bunch of PFF people at Carolina now in the analytics department.  A bunch of old articles about how valuable those folks have been to Dan Morgan in shaping the team the past 2 years. 

Analytics certainly has it's place.   But I think it can also be taken to hogwash levels in sports.

So more people to fire when this crew gets the boot is what I am hearing. It makes the PFF grades more understandable too.

It's strange that folks are still caught up on BTTs when the methodology has been shared and we have the game film to back it.

This isn't to say PFF is without fault. Their are definitely instances where a grade is questionable, but I've found that more often than not that the film backs the grade.

I'm hoping to get through the all-22 for the defense today so I can see what they saw that I didn't in regards to Moehrig. I'm still in denial over his grade, but I've seen a couple of clips as well where he was out of position (and another where a Jags player put him on his ass with a chip).

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
