Why do players underperform some of their expected statistics? Well, that’s sort of an impossible question to answer without access to every single resource possible. However, it is an important question to consider for people such as managers, analysts, and more. A player could have a bunch of wonderful peripherals year in year out, but their on field performance just simply does not measure up to the statistical expectations. How and where do you draw the line at accepting reality is correct?
Of course, you might be wondering why in the world I am saying all of this theoretical nonsense.
