I'm just having fun with numbers now. For the newest entry in my Analytics Audible series I deep dive the Contact Balance Index (or Grit Factor, as I call it) to look at some of the more underrated running back performances last #NFL season.

A quick little rant about the new first down technology that the #NFL unveiled last night? It's cool and all, but is it really addressing the issue it's supposed to be addressing?

I delved into the fantasy impact of players on new teams last season (spoiler: Saquon Barkley is featured prominently). #NFL #FantastyFootball

Fantasy Players On New Teams in 2024
I was thinking about players that changed teams in the offseason and it made me think about how some of the most successful fantasy players last season were on new teams. Of course, I wanted to take a...

Literally saw this in a waiting room as I listened to Sean pick her.
