This thread made me throw up. Then it made me recall an earlier thread about what if i think the people in the webzone are idiots, knowledgeable, loyal etc...this makes me lead towards idiocy.

People like this who just post dumb stuff for attention make me sick. Im sure you can look up somewhere that Joe Montana was a bad quarterback. Are you gonna believe that too?

He's being sarcastic, calm down.

However, where do they come up with their stats? Half of it makes no sense. Stephen Jackson is at the bottom also, WTF?!

Never mind I found it:
Quote:

How do we Grade?

Each grade given is between +2 and -2 with 0.5 increments and an average of 0. A positive intervention in the game rates a positive grading and vice versa. Very (very) little draws a +/-2 rating. In fact the distribution of non-zero grades is like this:
+2.0 0.01%
+1.5 0.3%
+1.0 16%
+0.5 37% (unbalanced because of the way WRs and HBs are rated)
-0.5 24%
-1.0 22%
-1.5 0.5%
-2.0 0.01%

The grading takes into account many things and effectively brings "intelligence" to raw statistics. For example a raw stat might tell you a Tackle conceded a sack. However, how long did he protect the QB for before he gave it up? Additionally when did he give it up? If it was within the last two minutes on a potentially game tying drive it may be rather more important than when his team is running out the clock in a 30 point blow out.

The average grade or what we would typically expect of the average player is therefore defined as zero. In reality, the vast majority of grades on each individual play are zero and what we are grading are the exceptions to this. Rating a LT as anything other than zero for a successfully completed backside seal block on a DRE is going to a level of complexity beyond the scope of this site.

So someone just gives their opinion on a play? How do people take this site seriously? Unless I'm totally missing something.

You think Rock Cartwright is a better RB than Frank Gore?

isn't he usually praised for his ability to pick up the blitz?

You must have not watched any games. Gore is our 3rd best offensive lineman. Dude picks up blitzes like a champ.

Watch games not stats.

You've all severely missed it.

Well, if you tried to be sarcastic, I am sorry, but since this is written communication, we can only guess whether you are serious or not

Besides, this is Ninertalk, the place where ridiculous statements come to multiply

The only good thing is, this is a great example how stats can be very deceiving, because, according to those rankings, Brian Leonard was a better back last season than Adrian Peterson and Frank Gore and Steven Jackson cannot hold a candle to Washingtons dynamic duo of Ladell Betts and Rock Cartwright

Ooooh I see what you did here.

Sarcasm can be a tricky thing in the interwebs. I appreciate the effort.
EPIC FAIL.

Sarcastic or not....

We're slowly but surely understanding the nuances of satire. If a post is so ridiculously as to purport that an established player is the worst in the league, it should most certainly be perceived as satire, regardless of the poster's original intent.

Wow. The internet from 2006 called and it wants it's overplayed phrase back.
even tho you were trying to make fun of the dashon goldson thread, this is retarded considering that thread made good arguments.....it's not like he said goldson sucks balls, he just said goldson isnt as good as people say and backed it up with stats

Sarcasm in the Zone has to be EXTREMELY obvious. I've heard some of the dumbest things in here that were said in all seriousness.
