THREAD: I recently finished tweaking a data science project with a goal of identifying the ideal metric to evaluate an RB's rushing performance, isolating individual play as much as possible.
Here’s the final formula:
RBIS = (MTF/Attempt * 10) + YAC/ATT - (YBC/Attempt/2)
Bleacher report ranks the #Vikings as the 8th best defense in the NFL heading into the 2026 season. The teams ahead of them:
1) Texans
2) Rams
3) Broncos
4) Seahawks
5) Eagles
6) Patriots
7) Chargers
ESPN sources: Green Bay WR Christian Watson and the Packers reached agreement today on a four-year, $110.5 million contract extension that includes a $31 million signing bonus.
@POLPITLAC It’s now not close again as it always was before an unsustainable explosion and you were sending wild memes suggesting to move him for Tet AND a first
@POLPITLAC Tet was consensus drafted well over him. Fantasy is a stock game. Refusing to sell an obvious sell high for a significantly more talented player and hating on a post recommending the smart play was ridiculous at the time and still is now. Just doing an accountability check.
Love Dybansta and Boozer too, but their concerns are not noise. Dybansta's shot translation and defense are real questions (That can be solved) and Boozer's defensive limitations are real. Peterson has the highest upside and least amount of risk of the group.
The number one prospect in the NBA draft is pretty clearly Darryn Peterson. All of his concerns are noise. Yes he had a problem with taking too much creatine that gave him weird spasms. That's solved. Noise. Elite build and advantage creation ability. Two way upside. Modern fit.
@juan98854268@PJStarlissimo Because they have immense higher levels of talent. It’s tough to make it with an average arm and slow processor in the NFL. When you have Caleb and Ward’s tools not only is the upside higher but it’s easier to see the high end coming together. More room for error.
@hammytakes_ That’s the silly part tho is it’s so easy to decipher this, and even easier on film, yet draft analysts and teams alike docked him for this.
