The highlight of my day; a fellow huddler's personal injury update on Jonathan Stewart!

So... Yesterday after work me and my buddy go into the Cracker Barrel here in my college town to get some pancakes, and the place is completely empty except one table. At the one table sits JStew and his mother! Once they started having coffee I went up to him and introduced myself and told him how big of a fan I was. I told him I thought he is the most underrated back in the game and that he became one of my favorite players when he laid that deadly stiff arm on Ronde Barber on MNF. I asked him how his leg was feeling and he said he was feeling good and has already started doing things full speed. He must have been telling the truth because him and his mom were on their way to a ski vacation on one of our slopes up here.

 

Talking with Jonathan Stewart was an awesome experience. It's so nice to see that some athletes are humble and really appreciate their fans. Not to mention his mother was one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met. I could tell she was very proud when she said I'm his mother. And she also was more than happy to take our picture. I'm so glad he took a few minutes to speak with us because I will never forget it for the rest of my life.

 

 

Happy Friday Huddlers!

Stewie is one of those truely nice guys in the NFL.  Everything you hear about him, you never hear anything bad about his personality.

 

I hope that he can make a full recovery, come back next year and be a productive member of the team.  He's been one of our best players when he's been on the field.  Alas for recurrent injuries.  Hopefully he earns his pay check this year, and we're all thrilled t to have him on our team.

Very cool.  My buddy lives in the same building as J Stew downtown so I ran into him and Kenny Moore in the elevator one night and like you said he is a really nice guy.  He was very personable and spoke to my wife and I.  Hope he can stay healthy next year.

98.7% chance you didn't just stumble upon him that early at Cracker Barrel. You saw where he tweeted he was going there and you stalked him down, didn't you?

      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.
