Why do people at NFLN take Cynthia Frelund seriously?


D521646

Recommended Posts

On NFL network today she predicted the Bills at 6-10 for 2019.  Pats @ 12 wins, Jets @ 8 and Phins @ 4.  So it appears the Bills have not improved at all.  Hard take to understand.

 

Others of note:

SF:  9 wins

Browns:  10 wins

 

Not all division in the segment I saw.

Cynthia saying it makes sense for the Bills to trade up for 2 to get Quinnen Williams..

 

I dont agree.. keep next years first...

 

The 49ers might not agree... not enough compensation...

The Bills go after my highest-rated prospect

 

Buffalo Bills receive:
-- 2019 first-round pick (No. 2 overall)
-- 2019 sixth-round pick (No. 176)

San Francisco 49ers receive:
-- 2019 first-round pick (No. 9)
-- 2019 fifth-round pick (No. 147)
-- 2019 sixth-round pick (No. 181)
-- 2020 first-round pick (valued at approximately pick No. 12)

Oh come on now, all of us!

 

Mock drafts and speculation/prognostication are all just so much pre-draft fun for all of us.

 

As soon as the first player gets picked on Thursday nite, everything changes and it gets real.

 

Can’t wait for Thursday.

 

 

 (And leave Cynthia Frelund alone!!! ? )

I ask because I've been watching her now for a good 3 years, and NOTHING she predicts, says, or even comments on is accurate.  1st off, anyone who plays fantasy stay the hell away from any "analytics" advise Frelund gives you, and that's both season fantasy and especially daily fantasy football.  She's total garbage, and her mocks exercises are not even worth the frequency bandwidth of hot air.  Just recently she gives a mock for this years first round of not where she thinks players will go, but which players will have an immediate impact, taking into account what she believes those teams records will be for 2019.  Um.. what?  Why even bother, it's pointless, and zero football knowledge can be gleaned from any of that nonsense, and to watch the guys criticize her without actually criticizing her is laughable, makes me want to puke.  Brooks just literally said that he agreed with Frelund that Haskins could be picked by the Pats at 32 and that (get this) Haskins is Tom Brady 2.0....  Yes he literally just said that!

 

My point, if not made abundantly clear, is, why is this women on TV talking about football like she's some sage of wisdom every week?  Has anyone ever heard her say anything intelligent when it comes to football fantasy or predictive analytics?  Anything?

 

 

Tim-

 

I need to know why you been watching her for 3 years?

6 wins isn't that far off. So she's not a Bills homer. I think 7 or 8 wins is more likely, but 6 is definitely possible if the injury bug bites. (Knock on wood)

They don't care about stats, but they know people read a lot into advanced metrics so they hired the best looking analyst they could find - that's about it.

I think you are confusing serious with set dressing.

 

Or gender quota.

Why single out Frelund?    IMO, they're all full of $hitt...

 

I watched that mock, it was silly all of them giving their stupid overhyped intro's.

Yeah, Tim, I read every word of all your posts in this thread.

 

Maybe you could distill your verbosity a bit, like one sentence...

 

”I don’t like Cynthia Frelund.”

Brevity is the soul of wit. She's distinctly average. :P

not a clue, for 20 years I've PVRed most sporting events and fast forward right to the live action all game long

 

haven't heard a peep from someone saying nothing on a panel, haven't watched a commercial voluntarily, haven't bothered with a replay review (they do whatever they want no matter how obvious it is)

 

the lack of stress from avoiding nonsense like this has been wonderful

and i can watch the live action of 3 games in the span people sit there watching a game in real time on TV

Tim-

 

Thank you, I couldn't believe that I could be the only one that noticed her 'analytics' are far from even believable. The algorithms that produce these results are either written by a 5-year-old or perhaps herself, considering her mentality level is roughly equal to that judging by her ineptitude at speaking. I have yet to see any of her analyses be accurate (except maybe the Patriots) in which practically every legitimate  NFL fan could give the Pats a predicted record between 11-5 and 12-4 the past 10+ years and be correct most of the time. I am so tired of people getting jobs in positions solely based on their looks. Can't remember the network, but they hired an ex-porn actress as a fantasy football analyst...I mean come on, seriously...regarding Cynthia - Yes she's pretty, yeah she has a good body, but so what? She's quite possibly one of the dumbest human beings in a position of reporting the News or Entertainment I have ever, unfortunately, listened to. NFLN need to drop her and find more women like Kay Adams if they need to up their gender diversity.

 

Flame away interwebs, I could care less about your opinions.

Congrats on setting a new record, troll - you just joined 10 minutes ago and are already on my ‘Ignore’ list.

Because she is a female.. in this PC world. , this what you get.. cred be damned.. must be :"fair" .

 

Oh, Horsefeathers.  If we're talking cred, how much cred can one give to 80% of the male announcers out there?  If we're throwing out announcers who lack valuable, accurate takes that's a nice deep pile.

 

It's entertainment.

 

Even guys who have their own show like Cowherd, openly admit it's their job to be "a mile wide and an inch deep" and to get attention by being contrarian.

 

The name of the game is entertainment.

Strong post. Solid. Tight. 

 

What’s a “mentality level?” Stick to one or two syllable words kiddo.

Sorry to disappoint, Senator, but I slammed it on his azz in route to the garbage dumpster.
