bmags Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Man the bears injury reports have been ridiculous this year. Wasn't McLellin supposedly gonna come back with the broken hand because he's a linebacker that will never intercept a ball anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 The George comparison has been around for a while and it really is pretty spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 you know what i found interesting, B&B read off the Pro Football Reference list of players most similar to Cutler, and George wasnt one of them. I see the comparison as well, which is why i found it interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the comparison as well, which is why i found it interesting Because I think the comparison is based mostly on intangibles, not quantifiable stats (i.e., they're both whiny d-bags with million dollar arms and 10 cent heads).

witesoxfan Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Not that quarterback rating is the best way to judge QBs, but does football have a different variation of it that regresses it to league average, ala OPS+, ERA+, wRC+, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. There is like Pro Football Focus, but I don't think the bases anything league average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 10, 2014 -> 03:51 PM) I don't think so. There is like Pro Football Focus, but I don't think the bases anything league average. The +/- goes around league average in 2009 when they started. This would make it possible to make some judgments about league trends since they started grading, but their intention isn't really to make league/year/context-based adjustments. In some ways, it embraces the contingent nature of the grades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thxfrthmmrs Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I've been picking the QB going against the Bears 3 of the last 4 weeks in my Fanduel survivor tournament, so I will be happy regardless of the outcome. Yes, I have Matt Ryan as my QB this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
