Because the total number of tackles doesn’t mean jack ****. Do you know who led mlb in rbi last year? No...because no one gives a ****. They’re outdated stats that dont really tell you much about player performance.
Sorry to be an awesome person but if I hear one more idiot talk about how badass Jaylon was and refer to his tackles, I’m gonna lose my ****.
this is why the PFF guys created their system. A pass rusher with 10 sacks didn’t necessarily have a better head than a pass rusher with 7 sacks. A corner with 5 ints didn’t necessarily have a better year than one with 2 ints. Same with tackles.
I understand.
But you have to not let it bug you.
You may not like Jaylon which is your right.
No prob.
Back in college I was a psyche major..
had to take several statistic courses.
We used it to analyze empirical data to predict behavior.
What I learned was you could interpreted data in different ways to support findings.
So regardless how you see it, someone may see it differently.
So absolute answers from stats is open ended and invite other measures to help figure something out.
So..
Be open minded how people see it.
Especially when it comes to data.
Oh..yes I like Jaylon. He's demonstrative, energetic and his teammates obviously like him.
Not really sure why people rag on him.
