Except why is there even a tread telling people that we don't have to worry any more then? If EVERYBODY knows it.

With a link to an article saying yards don't matter.

Why would it be difficult so sleep Saturday night if EVERBODY already knew that?

I never said I was the only one saying it. I was only speaking only for myself.

I will leave speaking for EVERYONE to you.

In fact if you want to speak for everyone, why do you need anyone else to post? You can write every post for your damn self.

In fact, you can finish this one. Eat...

That was fun, more fun than the fricking Patriots Broncos gam...err slaughter.

While it is certainly true that points are what matter most, yards matter some. There is an obscure government funded study that surprisingly correlates yards to points. They state that teams most frequently scored said points after, believe it or not, actually accumulating yards during the game!

The study is quick to state that it doesn't happen every time but it happens often enough to bear watching. (Some in the study like to watch bare but that is a whole nuther issue.) The study concluded that teams who gain a lot of yards score a lot of points. A team that scores a lot of points tends to win games unless their defense is sucky (term actually used in the study doc.) and gives up a lot of points as well.

One of the caveats of the paper is that teams who get turnovers will offset the yards they have allowed during said game. They then point out that reckless and unsuccessful attempts by players to gain a turnover will frequently allow their opponent large chunks of yardage.

I guess we still have Finley to argue about. Even the Favre vs Aaron thread started but people walked in and walked out without saying anything.

You're just not going to get much new stuff to debate. It's not gonna happen. Enjoy people's contributions here. I happen to think Dexter is one of the better posters on this forum.
