Pete says that if you take your completed passes and combine them with your rushing attempts and its over 50 than your going to win about 87% of the time

If you take skittles, load them into a freshly opened pepsi bottle and then shake it up...



Interesting stat, but I'm not sure what that does for us, in terms of strategizing though. :229031_confused2:

The funny thing is once you get to 60 then the winning percentage drops to 50. You can get really deep into this hole.

Like

1. Teams having a 100-yard rusher win 75 percent of games;
2. Teams winning the time of possession battles win 67 percent of games;
3. Having a 300-yard passer has no advantage, as those teams only win 46 percent of games.

Teams that have a first-half advantage of 25 or more passing yards win 71.1% of their games, yet, if the team has a passing advantage of 100 yards for the whole game they only win 33% of their games.

And last but not least, teams with the higher score at the end of regulation have won 100% of their games.

Bassaclity don't try to win a game by scoring 12 points at home to a team that was 4-7 with a backup QB.

We like meaningless , complicated , stat laden scenarios around here . It's too confusing when it's simplified to just wins vs losses . :D

I think Pete really likes and misunderstands stat 2 in the list above and tries to artificially achieve it to the detriment of the team.

If you score higher than your opponent you will win 100% of the time....

Stats out of context do not help.

Very curious if these stats bear out against playoff teams though.

This sounds like your classic correlation does not equal causation scenario

Unless I’m mistaken we are 2-5 the last 5 years in the playoffs for a winning percentage of 28.5%. That’s also a Pete stat.

Edit: my bad we are 3-4 having missed the playoffs one year. I forgot our victory over the Lions.

I'm totally not a stat guy... if your read my post you will see I see stats as a tool to see where adjustments need to be made not to suggest how good a team or a player is for the season...

I think the Giant game is a perfect example of that... yeah the giants are 4-7 but this is a team playing better than their record...so its reasonable to think that stats are misleading ....

I posted this stat because it's something Carroll picked up off Lombardi And I thought it would be fun to see if it is accurate... I'm unsure if Carroll uses this stat as I think he talks in generalities to avoid giving usefull information to other teams...


But it is a cool fun stat to play with

I bet if we count how many sticks of gum Pete chews there's a correlation to win %.

> 3 sticks = win 35 % of games
< 3 sticks = win 65 % of games
0 sticks = no statistics available

I think you are way off base dude... If Carroll chews 3 sticks of gum he is just cruising... if he pops a 4th things get dicey and I ain't even gonna comment on what happens if he changes the brand of gum he chews... come on man get with it !!! LMAO!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

My mistake, let me fix that

Chews > 3 sticks = win 35% or tie
Chews <= 3 sticks = win 65%
