    Danny Dimes benched

    As much as I like piling on Drew Lock, DeVito is a fan favorite and went .500 last year. The fans deserve him for a few week. I'm sure Lock will start at some point this season.

    “Here we gooooooo…”

    You forgot the cringiest part, Dak's cadence starts with "YEAH." It's like he's leading a peewee football team: YEAH... HERE-WE-GOOoooo. I heard "Omaha," meant Peyton Manning had changed to the alternate play. Maybe it is something like that.

    Geno Smith the headcase

    I didn't take it personally. If I said, "My wife is not quite Heidi Klum, but she's beautiful and charming," and you interpret that as, "My wife is slightly below Heidi Klum in beauty and charm," It's a goofy stretch and misrepresentation. But by all means, tease away—lower the hoop so you can...

    Then quote it. You've read them. Surely you can quote them.

    Geno Smith the headcase

    Nope. You lied and you haven't provided evidence to support your claim because no evidence exists. So now you are attacking my credibility. Did I say those things? No. Look, I would have blocked you months ago if I could, but I can't because you are a moderator. This the perfect example of...

    Geno Smith the headcase

    Where did I say this? Oh, that's right. I said nothing of that sort. I never once made a comment about "people around the league," or "taking you seriously." I talked about the football world, in general, mentioning specifically the analytics community—I even named them explicitly. So what...

    Charbonet

    His biggest issue is the offensive line. Walker is consistently creating something out of nothing. Charbs is not that guy. When he has holes, he looks explosive, but when he doesn't, he looks lost. That said, I mostly agree with Sonic. I don't think he's replacement level, but the value really...

    Geno Smith the headcase

    That's right. He's not quite Josh Allen. Again, you are either struggling with reading comprehension or you are intentionally misrepresenting my points. I mean, I suppose you actually think all GM opinions are created equal, so you are willing to gloss over Sando's point about his own tier...

    Geno Smith the headcase

    Oh dear... How is his 2023 year more accurate than 2022? Do explain that logic, as that's a claim that requires evidence, especially considering Geno suffered a significant injury in 2023. No. I didn't twist anyone's words, Kid. I paraphrased Mike Sando, a point he made about the problem with...

    Psst JSN is WR1

    For sure. Lucas is slow, but immovable once he gets his hands on guys. Cross is more athletic and less prone to getting beat around the edge, but he gets blown up quite a bit.

    Geno Smith the headcase

    First, I didn't argue that Geno was top 10 anywhere in my comment. Second, you clearly aren't as invested in analytics since you are mixing up metrics and using useless stats like QB Elo. Third, listen to that podcast, Sando made the point that some GMs were higher on Geno than others...

    Geno Smith the headcase

    Nope. You are just looking at the wrong stat. Geno's ranked 9th in EPA, and 16th in EPA/Play (EPA divided by the # of plays). The difference is a product of Seattle's failed 4th downs and redzone turnovers. Overall, though, Geno's one of the best QBs in the league in points added. The vast...

    Geno Smith the headcase

    You are mixing up metrics. He was 16th in EPA/Play. He's 9th in EPA. And he's 7th when low-leverage plays are down-weighted. Meaning, Geno has the 7th best EPA in the league when you account for game situations.

    Geno Smith the headcase

    The issue for people using metrics is that they treat them as rankings. Passer rating, Elo, QBR, etc., are not qualitative QB rankings. No sane person looks at Passer rating and assumes Derrick Carr is 6th best QB in the league. These metrics measure a specific thing, so you have to consider...

    Russ Earned My Respect Back

    He's certainly been a game manager with the Steelers. But I think people are missing the mark on their evaluation. His numbers place him among the worst starting QBs in the league, sandwiched between Levis and Richardson in down-to-down efficiency. You nailed the importance of context. Here, I...

    Geno finally put it together

    Oh, I thought you wanted to focus on facts. My mistake.

    Geno finally put it together

    Okay. Interesting response. This was a statistically below-average performance for Geno on the season. He had a bad interception and another potential turnover early in the game. What facts should we focus on, or, perhaps, more importantly, what is my narrative?

    Geno finally put it together

    That's an interesting take. How did Geno grow up today? He looked like the same guy he's been for 3 years to me.

    Dont be that guy...

    Do you mean touchdowns? Because they clearly had two scoring drives before Bosa left the game.

    Thats our QB!

    For xCMP%? It's a standardized metric based on historical data, using variables like down, distance, receiver separation, ball placement, time remaining, whether they are outside or in a dome, etc., to determine the probability of a completion. I suppose you could say there is mathematical...
