Crazy !

[Mikie2times]

We have been underperforming against DVOA for awhile now. Go figure.

We are third in the Conference (5th in the entire League) in POINTS DIFF at 101 and yet we are 11th on conference standing… i guess it’s something nfl history material. 

 

Its like 3 games that we destroyed other teams propping that stat up.  We lost almost all the close games.  That is why the point diff is so high and our record is .500

Have no fear Padre, we are 11th out of 16th with more likely more losses than wins to come.  Good times at OBD!  Can't wait until year 22 of the Mcbeane era so we can be mediocre or worse and waist Josh Allen's career.  

do NOT bring Josh's waist in to this. He is really trying to stay in shape.

Overperforming your metrics usually means you play smart football, stay focused and have good coaching.

 

Underperforming your metrics means the opposite.

Yes, it would be a shame to waist the prime years of Allen’s career. Thank goodness all his other measurables are off the charts.

Exactly, I don’t think it has never happened before at this level. This is the reason why I entitled the thread Crazy. 

So, if this is a historical season in which a fundamentally excellent team still has a terrible record...

 

Do you think  coaching might have something to do with it?

 

There's a reason you haven't seen this sort of thing before at this level.

 

This is not easy to accomplish!  It takes a particular lack of talent!

It's actually a GREAT example of why statistics/analytics are an important piece of the pie and should be relied on..but not exclusively! 

 

They should be considered one of several pieces of evidence to be weighed and balanced as a whole.

 

Any analytic you can think of is actually an extremely simplified attempt to explain an insanely complex system.

Flaws are inherent.
