It seems like in the world of football, we have a battle between film and analytics. On one hand you have the die-hard film watchers that think analytics just simply isn’t that valuable. On the other hand, you have the analytics hive mind that will tout stats above all else. As you know from watching my videos, I like to use advanced stats to supplement the film, but at times it feels like one or the other doesn’t tell the full story. Looking at Abraham Lucas, the Seahawks new offensive tackle out of Washington State, this is where I feel this disparity the most.
