Whew!! Lots to chew through and digest!

First: I tell me classes constantly about a misattributed Mark Twain quote: There are three kinds if Lies:

Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics.

That PFF data seems like noise (to be kind).

Love the break downs and the data pools!

France? Bon Temps, young man!!

Good stuff. Enjoy France! One question - do we think Quinnen and others benefit from the rotation policy? I thought the 30/35 snaps thing they said in the Summer was ridiculous but 70-75% of the snaps at close to 100% might be good for them ? Im not a close enough football watcher to know the impact of how all of that works but I can certainly see some benefit. While Q, Lawson, JFM are the best of the bunch, the backups are pretty talented and I can see the rationale for continuing with this policy.

Either way, Q is having a great start to the year. Hope it continues us and him.

Good move on PFF

Our OL and DL were dominant in the second half. The first two quarters were pretty much a wash as neither team could get much going except for the Pack going down the field with a few seconds on the clock and kicking a FG. I was concerned since the Pack had the momentum at half time.

Zach took what the defense gave him and didn't force many passes. It was a very dominant effort on Defense, special teams, and the offense did enough with the stops & turnovers.

It was a fun game to be at. I didn't expect a win but I wasn't surprised. These Jets are playing hard and making plays.

Enjoy France and thanks for the article!

Good stuff, as always.

May I suggest you include penalties (and yards) in the stats? I think helps paint the picture.

That's a very good suggestion. I'll make sure I include those from next week and get a running total for players so we can identify any repeat offenders.
