How much do these type of statistics really translate to anything of real value? I’d take a guy that could catch a ball with 2 defenders all over them over one who gets wide open and drops everything. Then again, I’ll admit I don’t know what most of these graphs mean or how they are compiled, or who makes the call on what is considered separation. Analytics are fascinating, but not gospel.

I’m just glad we don’t have to sit thru another year of glorifying the “tank”. Tanking shouldn’t even be a thing, but most certainly shouldn’t be an acceptable strategy. One, it sets a bad tone for the culture (losing is ok of it makes us alot better? NO! Losing sucks regardless) Two, repeated attempts like we have been doing lately SURLEY get the attention of the football gods and have brought us the deserved bad luck of late.

It’s Indiana. We have weird names for ourselves (hoosier?) I’m happy with Colts fan. Simple. To the point.
