Cowboys hire Shane Hauck and Piper Hampsch as Strategic Football Fellows

[Gambit]

The Data Bowl is an "annual sports analytics contest from NFL Football Operations challenges members of the analytics community – from college students to professionals – to contribute to the NFL’s continuing evolution of the use of advanced analytics. The crowd-sourced competition uses data and technology to spur innovation that results in creating new insights, making the game more exciting for fans and protecting players from unnecessary risk."

Basically a sports and Data Nerds Olympics lol.

The Finalist we hired Shane Hauck's teams entry was in setting the edge on Zone Run Plays, the overall theme of competition was on better tackling.

If you're a fellow Data Nerd you can see their submission on Kaggle.

The Cowboys will do anything they can to win a championship except improve the roster with proven veteran talent in free agency.

They can have all the analytics they want. But if they can't do good old fashion coaching and playing, it all means nothing.

Why don’t they just hire @Risen Star ..

I'm thinking they need to hire the self proclaiming GMs in this board, for one season.

Let them run the show.

Would be comedy gold.

0-17, just like what some fans want.

Setting the Edge-I dont think either Quinn or our DEs cared for that.I am glad they atleast recognise it was a problem.

Lmao it’s true.

Jerry : “I would do anything for another Super Bowl”

Attack free agency aggressively?

Jerry : “No I won’t do that”

They make things more complicated than they need. How many analytics folk do we need to line up and win? This is pure folley.

Like Zimmer is going to listen to someone named Piper.

This is why Kneeland was drafted

I spose to fans who aren't into analytics it could seem that way.

Others see them adding some of the top talent possible to continue to grow that department.

And some just appreciate a fellow Data Nerd landing a job in a top organization and favorite team.

Wonder how long it will take before the new hires come to the realization their understanding of professional football exceeds that of their employer?

 

[Risen Star]

Needle mover.

Yeah we couldn't possibly do as well as what they've done over the last 30 years.

I'm clearly not qualified. I'm not related.

No chance he works for this circus of a franchise

Who names their kid Piper?

100%. I can't picture season ending post mortem. Ok guys, we need to address the obvious issues. No not the run D, no not the run game or scheme, no not Dak's faltering in big spots, no Not the teams habbit of disappearing vs good road teams... its the analytics! And we need more hard disk space on our servers! ALL IN!

 

[Gambit]

Who names their kid Piper?

Mr. And Mrs. Hamsch?

Just a guess in this case though.

 

[shabazz]

Who names their kid Piper?

A plumber or a porn star
