NFL just has too many numbers with no predictive ability behind them, DVOA does not tell you who is more likely to win playoff matchups.

I absolutely love advanced analytics. We have access to more information than ever and it's great.

That being said, the sheer volume of it has kind of made us forget that there are intangibles that numbers can't measure, like heart, will, and momentum.
