ESPN: Week 10 Numbers Crunching
Here's another trip around the matchups of the week featuring FO's advanced stats. Among the things you will learn this week: Pittsburgh should throw more passes to its running backs, the Jets' pass defense is an all-around strength, the Minnesota defense gets tired at the end of games, and the most penalized player in the NFL is Buffalo tackle Demetrius Bell.

Eli Manning and Tom Brady were nearly equal in value in the Super Bowl. One of them had to lose. What effect will that have on their legacies? Plus, the best players of Super Bowl XLVI and the game's DVOA ratings.

Zero comments here, zero comments on the ESPN article -- and it's been up for a day. Not sure what to make of this, other than maybe the fact that there used to be more interesting discussions around here when less of the content was behind other people's paywalls.

Probably true.
Re: ESPN: Week 10 Numbers Crunching
There's more free content available on FO each week than ever in this site's existence.
Re: ESPN: Week 10 Numbers Crunching
See, now, that shouldn't be good enough for an FO response. I'd expect to see something like "Insider-Adjusted Content", with some analysis behind why the quantity of free content doesn't fall under the analogous "garbage yards" category.
Don't get me wrong -- FO is a great site that built its rep by offering *unique* analytical insight into the week-to-week happenings of the NFL. These unusual angles (e.g. your college columnist seems to be inventing some new stats lately) got a lot of readers adding their own ideas, like a good brainstorm. The content that has gone behind the walls has really dried up the chatter that helped make the site so interesting.
Re: ESPN: Week 10 Numbers Crunching
does the article crunch the numbers to see how likely it is now that Chicago goes to the Super Bowl?
