Official Gameday Thread: Bucs @ Panthers


The Other Colbert

Recommended Posts

Cam Newton is just 18 yards shy of Peyton Manning’s rookie passing record, but while his passing and rushing skills have surpassed expectations, he still has not mastered the emotional repression required to succeed in the N.F.L. Luckily, the veteran linemen Jordan Gross and Ryan Kalil are giving him lessons in personality suppression. “I have a bad tendency of showing my emotions on my face,” Newton said Wednesday. “I have to change it, and I’m trying to change it. At the quarterback position, you need to stay even-keeled.” Soon, all elements of Newton’s humanity will be airbrushed away, and he will become like the other quarterbots, unwilling and incapable of expressing disappointment or doubt, and only feeling pleasure and pride during the few seconds he is hoisting the Lombardi Trophy. Do not worry, Cam: the assimilation is mostly painless, and your personality grows back about a decade after retirement. Pick: Panthers

R.J. Stanford will start at CB in place of Captain Munnerlyn who was placed on IR Friday.

Meh at Stanford.

Bucs will be missing both starting DTs -- Haynesworth and Price are inactive. Roy Miller and Frank Okam will start.

    • Difference between you and I here on this convo….is you only acknowledge PFF.   It’s hyper fixation from folks that get creative  and blinders to the rest.  Put that one website to the side, and all the other aspects we use to declare what top 10 looks like wouldn’t put Bryce in that type talk.     
    • What it tries to do is grade each player individually IMO. If XL drops a nice pass it tries to make it not hurt the player than threw the pass and if on a similar pass a WR like DK makes a leaping one handed catch it tries to even out how much credit the QB gets vs the WR. Yeah it has grey areas because some of it can fall under opinion despite them using specific measurements and charts to justify their definitions. Like it or not PFF isn’t going anywhere. Analytics are trending up right now. 
    • I’m getting 2 of 7 off his passing chart that day for balls that traveled at least 20 yards in the air.   And 20 yards in the air is largely the consensus of a deep ball.   that’s why I keep saying people are just running with a headline.  Because his best in the week deep declaration is based off a 2 of 7 day.  PFF is declaring him best off the day and using plays like a 50/50 jump ball to AT that went incomplete to build it.  That week was full of guys that factually were better deep…..everywhere but PFFs website.  Lamar, Stafford, Nix and on and on were all better in reality that week.  Hell, Mahomes in that same game.   PFF basically does a what if alternate reality on those deep throws.  So the volume of just throwing up a jump ball aids the PFF stat pending it’s a good 50/50 ball.
