lol wow. I said from the start to look at his body of work and not use a 3 game (2 of which were against bad offenses) sample size to say "well maybe he isnt bad". WTF are you talking about? Take your own advise. Big picture. Not the small sample size

Type in all caps all you want. YOU still were making a knee jerk reaction by pointing to a 3 game sample while claiming it wasn't a knee jerk reaction to do so

So you reposted the exact post that I quoted from you. So I'm once again not sure what exactly point you think your making How exactly is is the idea of keeping the possibility of retaining him open based on a 3 game sample after seeing a complete body of work from him not a knee jerk reaction...

I'm not sure what point your making. Yes Barry called a good game against a good offense. 1 game Let's just brush over his entire tenure as a D coordinator cause well that one game he had the D play great. Seriously that's all it takes? Yeah totally not a knee jerk reaction

Big ole disagree on that. In fact quite the opposite. Barry isn't some 1st year D coordinator. There's a pretty large body of work that you can look at that says he shouldn't have the job and useing a 3 game sample size with one of those games being against a 3rd string QB and another on against...

I am enjoying it. Doesn't mean people need to or should gloss over a very prominent issue with the kicker

Everyone but Carlson you meant

I'm confused on how showing that having offenses that don't turn the ball over with defenses that force turnovers is a recipe for success makes "complementary football" a myth? Seems like complementary football to me.

What I said was points allowed per possession is a much more important stat then gross points allowed. That is a hill I'll die on since simply useing the later to decide whether a defense performed is just lazy analysis and doesn't give any real insight into how well a defense actually played...

Sure but it's not believing in a concept to point out that the offensive possessions also increased by 50% in that hypothetical

When it takes a 50% increase in possessions for it to happen yes. That team now also increased their offensive possessions by 50% all because a defense got better.

That defense that gave up 600 in 150 possessions is a **** ton better then the one that gave up 500 in 100. Seriously though. Why does every post here need an "lol"?

And there's your issue you are showing an inability to comprehend. The defense IS allowing points at a higher rate. Our Defense is more likely to allow points on each and every drive during a game. You seem to be taking the stance that since it's taking the opponent longer to score that must...

I'm sure you think you made some kind of rebuttal there (you didn't) But by all means continue to "lol" as if you think your just owning everyone and not showing a complete lack of understanding

That was a very long winded way of saying you don't understand that points per drive is a way more important stat for a defence then points per game. Like WAY more important
