Remember Josh Gordon? He only had 2 receptions for 21 yards against Shields.
That guy AJ Green? Kind of a good WR right? 4 catches for 50.

Shields is also 4th in the league since 2010 with 17 INTs.

Oh yeah, that guy Calvin Johnson right there, happens to be the best jump ball WR in the NFL.

Considering I was at the game, I figured I should correct some of this.

First, no one single covered Josh Gordon in that game. They sat their safety on top of him all game. Second, it was rainy, miserable, and Brandon Weeden was the qb.

It was a team effort to take him away, and Brandon Weeden played the 12th man. Worst 200 bucks I have ever spent in my life.

Roberto, these kind of statistics are worthless. There's no context.

Stats are always worthless, or as I usually so eloquently put it, stats mean jack.

Stats used correctly are a very important piece of information gathering. Yeah people make misuse statistics to paint a picture the way they want you to perceive it but Stats mean a LOT when used correctly.

The fact that stats can be manipulated is the reason they mean jack.

Determining that they are used correctly is a subjective exercise.

It is only subjective if you are trying to paint a picture the way you want and want others to see it.
It should be looked at objectively to get correct information out of data.
