CFZ The Cowboys record with and without Tyron Smith

[charron]

Does anyone know the boys record the same season once tyron comes back from injury? It ses he is always rushed back and always seems to struggle.

That really isn't an apples to apples comparison. If you extrapolate the .531 without over 144 games, we would have won only 5 less without TS than with him. That comes out to 1 additional win every other season over a 9 year span. That truly is insignificant. There are a lot of variables that go into wins and losses but if you're trying to say TS was a big difference maker on the won/loss columns, the stats don't bear it out.

That is not to say that TS is not a HOFer.

valid point for sure….but wouldn’t all the other players on the team as well as the strength of opposing teams have to be exactly the same as the games with Smith as those without him?

with so many variable (as you stated) the eye test may be the only real indicator…..except we all see through different eyes, lol

yes and like all stats, is flawed. It depends greatly on what defense they play each game with and who is the LT battling ?
Also is offense run heavy, pass heavy or balanced>? those things make a difference.

Stats aren’t flawed. It’s how they’re interpreted and how they’re used is where the flaws start

they are flawed in the way they are accumulated and totaled.

It’s how they’re interpreted and how they’re used is where the flaws start-I agree there
