This is my big issue with the gameplan and I believe it’s because MLF thinks he’s better than he is. Matt seems to think he can single handedly drag this team to wins. But this team is not good enough. Swallow the pride and let Love sling it around. At least you’ll find out what you have instead of protecting him. You’re probably gonna lose either way, might as well make it worthwhile.

Assigning any particular value to one defensive player is incredibly hard. A sack or interception are weighted so heavily because of the impact but assigning them to one guy is not ideal. Coverage sacks == pass rush wins for instance. There’s too many variables and most of them are unknown on any given play.

Oof. Defensive metrics are woefully unreliable.
