Metrics on best 4th quater/OT QB play this season
section122 replied to SaviorPeterman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah my post was directly related to Winston and Eli. Narrowing down the context would make it more meaningful imo. Maybe down 7 points or less or something to that effect. -
Got tickets to see him this Thursday. Can't wait!

Metrics on best 4th quater/OT QB play this season
section122 replied to SaviorPeterman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The dreaded garbage time? Where teams are playing soft which allows qb to complete a lot of passes for a lot of yards? This is a stat that needs a lot of context to mean anything imo. -
Players taking a liking to Benjamin

Oh yeah not a good look for sure just wanted to clarify it a bit. Reminiscent of finding out Stevie Johnson didn't work out in the offseason. As good as I look on Cam I look terrible on my Wentz bet. You might even say I'm being pantsed on that one! -

Good to see you biscuit! FWIW he didn't show up to camp overweight he ballooned and showed up to minicamp in May over weight. No reports that I could find of him reporting to camp heavy. -
Ravens are the biggest rival for wild card imo
section122 replied to JinxedBill1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think it is because of Flacco. He is hot garbage and that is disrespectful to hot garbage. Can't argue that! -

NFL Primetime was a fantastic show and must see tv at the end of a Sunday. I'm not much for pregame shows as I'm usually pregaming myself but yeah Berman is and was a national f*cking treasure! -
The same thing that happens with most super teams. They have to find their way. I am intrigued to watch 3 ball dominant guys co-exist though.

Also predicting a tough year for Cuse. Every year we list all of the games up for sale. The games we want to go to we list at crazy prices. Yesterday 3 games sold!. Cornell, Virginia, and BC?! Glad they sold now because I have a feeling it's going to get ugly this year. Apparently the start of the season hype has some people eager. Should be an easy win tonight though for Cuse (hopefully).

wrong bennett brother -
I gave you credit you made 3 throws over 259 seem like a huge difference. It was great word play. It is indeed factual but misleading none the less. Do we say the Bills have 5 times as many wins as the Giants or do we say they have 4 more wins than the Giants. Both are factually correct 1 is just really misleading. Again though I give you credit for your use of the language to make your point seem much more valid than it is. You are correct though on the statistics and maths so I apologize 4.3% better odds was wrong on my part. Like I said I'm celebrating a long week that has one more week to go. Cheers!

I like how you used the English language there. Very impressive. By saying double, quadruple, etc.. you make it seem like a huge difference. Instead of saying 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, or even at most 14 more throws you used the multiplier which makes the difference seem much greater than it is. Then you picked the most extreme example of 4.8 to .5 nicely ignoring that 3 of the guys are within 1.5% and even your extreme outlier is only 4.3% more. Then you pull 1/20 or 1/200. 4.3% better odds would be the difference between 1/20 or 1.86/20. I'll put it to you another way. Your "vast difference" between .5% and 4.8% means that Taylor would need to have attempted 12 total throws to be at 5%. So 11 more throws over his 236 attempts would make him the leader in the category. As Transplant pointed out though it isn't a throw qbs make often as 11 total throws would be more than everyone on your list save for Brady. The likely GOAT QB throwing to the likely GOAT TE. Shocker that they throw that more than anyone else in the league... btw his 236 attempts are 23-73 less throws than the other guys, is that also a vast difference? That is anywhere from 9% and 23% more throws. *started celebrating being out of work already, numbers subject to me being slightly under the influence

I guess this is as good a place as any to put this as I have been opining about it... Here is how I would help viewership for the NFL. 1. Thursday games are reserved solely for teams coming off of byes and I would schedule 2 games each week to help have a matchup that people are interested in. I know this has been discussed but I think the league could do it by 2. Adding a second bye. This would stretch the season out a bit and give players more rest while giving the NFL more Sundays to put programming on. 3. Staggered start times. Think about the first few days of the NCAA tournament. There are games running all day Thursday and Friday and seemingly games ending one right after another. This is a great design. Instead of all games being a 1 or 4/4:25 start, Have games start at 1, 1:30, 2:00, 2:30 and then again at 4, 4:30, 5. This would keep eyeballs on the league longer as their would be games that were close to the end from 4-5:30 and then again from 7-8 which would lead right into SNF. This would allow fans to see more teams and dominate Sunday. 4. MNF would be similar to Thursday in that I would have 2 games. East coast game starts at 7 West Coast game starts at 9:30. 5. Limit the amount of prime time games teams can have. How many times were the Giants on primetime to start the season? 6. Start flexing games earlier in the season. I think giving upstart teams primetime games would help with fatigue from watching the same teams over and over. What do you guys think?

Your brother plays on Saints, who do you root for?
section122 replied to Kelly the Dog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This season? Bills win and brother plays well Out of the playoffs? root for Saints Playoffs yet to be determined? Bills Not quite the same but I'm a SU Basketball season ticket holder. Many in my family are Bonaventure alums including my dad, sister, aunts, uncles. My mom and her family are from Olean. 1 game a year I root against Cuse. I don't feel at all bad about it and last year they almost pulled it off! However a 30 game season is much different than 16 and the fact that Bonas is always the underdog probably plays into it. -
I bolded it and think it was enough to show tbh I'm not really sure what row_33's point was in comparison to what I wrote.

3:27 seconds people should spend watching this. Thanks for it! There won't be, it will just be ignored. A season and a half ago someone said "we made him a qb" and they are stuck on it. Not realizing that he has become a better qb than ever as this stat illustrates. He also has been playing well from the pocket which flies in the face of force him to stay in the pocket. I was replying to this line: so I guess if his perfect world gets turned upside down, he earns a right to pout in the corner versus showing leadership to overcome those adversities...seems overcoming those would be the initial inclination of a franchise QB in the making, but what do I know............... He isn't pouting in a corner as this poster supposed. He has led a team that many (almost all) had low expectations for to a 5-3 record. Hardly pouting, in fact he is overcoming them which would seem then that he perhaps is a franchise qb in the making as those were the guidelines set forth by the poster.

Did the defense quit on Coach Thursday?
section122 replied to Foreigner's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think Thursday had a lot to do with an older team lacking depth. By the time the fourth quarter rolled around the defense was exhausted. I would be surprised to see that type of game with an extended break before Sunday's tilt with the Saints. -
My 2017 Midseason QB Rankings
section122 replied to BuffaloHokie13's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I saw an interesting stat Sunday about the AFC North this year. Against the Jaguars; the Ravens suffered their worst loss ever, Big Ben threw the most picks in one game in his career, and the Bengals ran the fewest offensive plays in their history. Good year to finally not have them on the schedule As for Big Ben I agree that the one game is really skewing him down but 10 tds and 4 ints are still worse than Taylor's numbers. I'd still take him for one game over a lot of guys in the NFL but I agree his days of being in the cream of the crop may be over. -
I would be lying if I said that I wasn't nervous about the rest of the season but that is my bbfs creeping in. I think we gave the recipe to defeat Denver to the league. Tampa Bay is led by an immature guy and I think they quit on the season after losing to the Bills. I'm in wait and see with Oakland - I think last year was fluky with the amount of close wins they had and Carr coming back down to earth. Atlanta was doing really well against the rest of the league until playing the AFC East so I don't know what to make of it. So they aren't less impressive to me as a win is a win in the NFL. I think on the flip side I think the only loss that looks really bad right now is the Bengals game.

My 2017 Midseason QB Rankings
section122 replied to BuffaloHokie13's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nice work Hokie! I was wondering what the updated listing looked like. I'm surprised to see Dak at #1 with everything that Wentz has done so far. I'm also surprised to see Rivers and Carr as high as they are. However they aren't too far off from where I thought they would be. Cam on the other hand is way higher than I thought. He has had so many bad games this year and really only 2 great ones imo. I don't really see anyone I think you have too low though so I guess I can't argue the guys above too much. Again thanks for doing this as I know it is your own creation. Are there any qbs that you are surprised where they ended up?
