Everyone I saw comment said they were never fed. One team said they got a generic box lunch at a random DC office (not the WH). Plus college kids like this type of food, no? Is the visit really about the food? I’m lost. But also don’t care. Unfortunately it’s all over every radio and tv show.
That's kind of my point college kids can eat fast food anytime but given the opportunity to eat at the most powerful person in the U.S.'s house you might think you get to eat food made by a pretty talented chef. The visit isn't about the food there are a lot of things that should be great about it the visit the food is just one thing but it's still a thing. Like with a lot of things both the media and President are at fault for us having to see this stuff everywhere. The media for fixating on stupid ***** and the President for parading it around.

I don’t really follow politics closely at all but I assume college kids like fast food and football players eat a lot so i have no idea why that was such a controversy. Several players who visited the WH in previous years and administrations said they got no food. If they felt like they didn’t want the offerings they could simply decline, right? What am I missing with this.
I don't know the history of teams being fed or not when they visit the White House but I will say if given the opportunity to eat at the White House I might be a little disappointed if the food was something you could get pretty much anywhere in the U.S.

Or distract us from the Dems keeping the government closed because they won’t fund a wall they all wanted before Trump became president.
This clearly isn't the place for this but I'm sure setting the precedent that the President can hold the government hostage until he gets what he wants is a great idea.

No. The dot in the red is more precise, not more accurate. That's where you're confusing the two; it's shown right in the label of the diagram.
The OP talked about catchable balls. Let's take a WR numbers as the bulls eye. If the QB throws a ball that is "catchable", which I think could be be interpreted as within the catch radius, then it's accurate. But not precise. The OP should weigh in on what he considered accurate.
When you say hitting a guy in the numbers consistently, that requires not just accuracy, but precision. When folks talk about fitting a ball into a tight window that's not just an accurate throw it's a precise throw. Allen can stand to be more precise for sure.
as for completion percentage by the way, if he throws 30 passes the difference between 52 and 60% is about 2 passes a game. Or two drops or throwaways.
So are you saying that Allen is the bottom left target where the red dot is a perfect in stride pass right where it needs to be and the first white circle is still catchable but not perfect?

Nope.. I want a extra 2 this year or a 1 next year on top of both those 1’s
Gruden can afford it
If you can get it sure not sure I'd say no to the other if you can't.

You have the diagram right but the interpretation wrong. I've posted the same one. When you hit a guy in the legs vs. chest it is the lower left hand diagram, high accuracy but low precision. Allen and others need to be more precise, less so accurate.
Hitting the bulls eye every time is high accuracy but importantly high precision.
I think you might be arguing over what you consider accurate not precision. A single pass is more accurate the closer it is to where it needs to be(if that's where you're aiming). Whether you consider a throw accurate depends on where you draw the line as you get farther from that.

You're totally gonna get that automated response thing about misleading titles.
Could just add a "?" to the end of it.
Chiefs, Rams, and Saints pretty good passing offenses so maybe they're looking at them.

When was the last top 10 qb who was a 56% passer from a sub power 5 conference? It’s not a made up narrative.
Really this is the first time I've heard of this issue with his college stats and the school he went to.?

Eric Wood was interviewed today and mentioned Zo, Micah Hyde and Josh as the main leaders from his perspective. Need more on offense! I know shady is a captain but his role seems fluid right now.
He has had at least two incidents this year that weren't very captain like. His avoidance of the media for a bit and what he said about the Alabama O-Line. Guys that really need to step up into a leadership role would be what Dawkins and Zay?

Well that adds some pressure to this season.

I hope all the people who wanted daily progress reports of the hiring process have calmed down now. They didn’t forget!!!
I wonder if we'll hear about the WR coach soon since it kind of feels like they're getting everything done/announced at once.

It would depend how big the target is. If you're throwing a football say from 20 yards and your target is a foot wide, you hit it every time you are both accurate and precise. If the target is 5 feet wide and you hit it 10 times but all over the target you're accurate (although not as accurate as the first scenario) but you're not precise.
Your last statement is dead on. Your miss it ten times and miss in the exact same spot you're precise but you have terrible accuracy.
Right I think we see it the same way I was just confused with your wording before. The part about the target is where it kind of gets relative what your specifically measuring and to what level.

I would disagree.
Okay lets say I tell you to hit a target and you hit it that would be accurate. Then lets say I tell you to do it 10 times and you hit it 10 times that's accurate and precise. On the other hand if you miss all 10 times but hit the same spot that's still precise just not accurate.

The classic way to explain it is the dartboard. Say you're throwing darts and want to hit the bulls eye. If you don't hit the bulls eye with ten throws but they closely surround the bulls eye, you're accurate. But you're not precise because your throws aren't hitting the same spot consistently. Now let's say your ten darts all hit the exact same spot, but that spot is three inches away from the bulls eye. Now you're very precise, but your accuracy is bad.
What the OPs data suggests is that Allen is accurate, but that he could stand to be more precise. Really good QBs are both. They put the ball not only in the receiver's catch radius (accurate) but put in on a specific spot within that catch radius where the receiver can make a play (precision). When one talks about fitting a ball into a tight window, that's a throw that is both accurate AND precise. Allen needs to be more precise so his receivers get the ball in stride and make YAC, as an example.
I don't know I think accuracy is making that throw and precision is making it consistently or I suppose missing in the same way.

That is the difference between accuracy and precision. If the throw is within the catch radius it is accurate, but may not be precise. Really good throws are both.
Isn't precision hitting close to the same spot every time?

Seems like an alright hire to me but what do I know.
Maybe they just hired him thinking of all the jokes people will make when he leaves.

If he was seriously a candidate for the OL coach in Indy, with all that talent...why come here? Either he wasn’t getting that job, he loves a serious challenge, or we opened the checkbook. Just my guess....
Maybe this is also the first NFL team he got a job with.

They better hope he works out as a HC because I sure as hell wouldn't want to be the one that fires the Zodiac killer.

They interviewed this guy for the HC job in Oakland?

I mean having no qualifications to judge this doesn't seem like a terrible hire. I mean ideally you want someone that you know for certain will be good but anyone like that either still has their job or is trying to get promoted.

I still remember the sensation of my stomach contents rising. He got better about sliding or running OB, but there were several instances where he got bent backward awkwardly in the second half of the season. I was thrilled to see him get up each time......but all it takes is once.
To put it simply he did slide more in the back half of the season in the front half he jumped over a guy.

Ok, as someone who defended the hire, I’m out after that press conference. What was that? ?
Don't panic but I think the eyes are following you.
