8-0 at home
really not too shabby in actuality
What else is new...Now see here, my good man, we’re winning the super bowl in some kind of crazy game.
These are scoring numbers and wins and losses not sure what other context you are looking for?Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, exhibit one on why stats without context are as useless as tits on a bull.
These aren't passing stats it's scoring.No run defense stats, don’t be misleading. If we can dictate an opponents offense by playing with a lead we are okay but if they are able to rip time away from TB we are in trouble.

Yes. To admit that this isn’t the 4th best offense and the 7th best defense would be to admit an inconvenient truth. It doesn’t surprise me that you want to hold on to that belief. Every season, we have this conversation. Stats without context are absolutely misleading. You learn that in Intro to Stats. It’s literally one of the first things any professor will tell you. Case and point from a recent example - how did the 5th best defense do in the Super Bowl last year? Furthermore, tell me what they did, from a schematic standpoint, to sure up the run defense? Please be specific.These are scoring numbers and wins and losses not sure what other context you are looking for?
I would say yards could be misleading without scoring contexts. Or other similar things but scoring and holding the other team from scoring is the name of the game.
Which has nothing to do with the fact that this is a fantastic example of stats without context.Wins and losses... wins and losses

For starters they activated more beef on the game day roster in Shelton and Kamalu the past 2 games and they were better.Yes.

Wait so now your calling wins and losses a misleading stat?Which has nothing to do with the fact that this is a fantastic example of stats without context.
I feel like the defensive stats are misleading (though not as much as in 2011, more like 2016). It's a decent defense overall, but certainly not great. The offense isn't as strong as in years past to bail it out. And yet somehow, this will probably be the year we finally get our first Super Bowl blowout win.
