Yes.

According to the statistics ran by Nate Silver, a very respected member of sports media, Tom Brady's teams with a REPLACEMENT LEVEL QB would have gone 12.6 - 13.4 in his 26 completed postseason starts. Peyton Manning's with that same REPLACEMENT LEVEL QB would have gone 8 - 16.

Thus, the idea that Tom Brady doesn't have enough weapons is criminally stupid.

Thanks for playing.

It's still not "proof". Just like WAR in baseball isn't "proof". It is a prediction based on a mathematical equation.

Ok, fair.

So the same people, like Prison Bitch (and me), who put a high emphasis on WAR, it's fair to say that this is a pretty revealing article and it kind of dispels a few myths about Tom Brady, correct?

Or are we just going to pretend WAR is no longer a good metric whatsoever because I brought it up and it kind of painted a picture I've been trying to paint for like 10 years now?

Approaching blackbob levels.

You're looking at the first chart, where the second one, down the page, is where he runs the numbers with a replacement-level QB, which is what the text you quoted is talking about.

In this chart, Brady ranks 6th, behind Eli, Montana, Warner, Flacco, and Elway.

so are you saying hootie read the wrong mathematical analysis "proof"?

I think the only thing he got wrong is the thread title, it should say 6th, not 43rd.

No, not at all.

Brady's teams 12.6 - 13.4 with replacement level QB
Manning's teams 8 - 16

and if you don't want to agree with that, fine

but baseball geeks think of WAR as gospel, and none of this was math done by me

It was research done by someone who has more credentials than anyone on this board.

Any analysis that suggests Trent Dilfer, Mark Sanchez and Tony Eason are better quarterbacks than Tom Brady is the spastic rambling of a reerun.

See below for a mathematical proof that Hootie is an idiot:



Don't blame me if you don't understand it. The math proves it. Hootie is an idiot.

Yeah, I know. The thread title was for trolling purposes only.

So far, it has worked.

Can you provide one reason why you shouldn't receive a time out for this? You do remember that you allowed back on a short leash, yes?

I was never allowed back on a short leash and I'm pretty sure I'm allowed to talk about football on this board.

You suck a lot of dick, and it grosses me out.

You were graciously allowed back. And I'm pretty sure that it was conditional on you behaving yourself (i.e., a short Hootie leash). I would say that you are pulling on that leash pretty hard.

Maybe you could throttle it back a little? Thanks in advance.

I see that Flacco is #3.
