He was all about sharing statistics until I proved them wrong. Now he says, "Watch the tape against a top 10 worst defense. We torched 'em!"
Actually, when you decide to stop hyperventilating, you will see that I specifically stated that the tape will verify the statistics.

You are welcome to point out where the tape does not show that Montana actually won the game handily, and that UND did not defend vigorously against the long ball throws, and that Makena did not throw accurately and that the receivers did not in every case "make the play that Makena gave them," as roughly stated by ... Coach Stitt.

The problem is, you can't, and so you won't. :mrgreen:
"He (Simis) gave our guys a chance and every single time they made plays," said Stitt of Simis' performance. "That's what I was most proud of him for, he got us into good protection, and then he put the ball where we had a chance to make a play."
Take it up with the Coach. It's not my opinion. It's his. Confirmed by the "stats."

[ So if you take out the NDSU game as well as the Montana game(as you so stated in your other post) you will get the same number (269 passing yards allowed/game) which is again good enough for 10th worst in FCS.
You're obsessing. Get a life.

If you take a below average game out of the dataset, it doesn't lower the average, it raises it.

Have you even done any of the math I've stated? Or you just spewing nonsense?

If you take a below average game(as far as yards allowed/game) which means MORE YARDS ALLOWED out. That means you LOWER your average yards allowed per game...

Math...I know it's hard. I know you are too ignorant to just look the data up yourself but I promise...my numbers are correct. I would bet any amount of money you want.

I'm waiting for your counter from a stats standpoint. Because if you want to play the eye test, you are in the vast minority of thinking simis is good at running our offense.
And therein lies the problem: your penchant for fabrication. I didn't say that. I did say that on key metrics, Brady was deteriorating, and on one important key metric, was in bad shape consistently.

I also said that Makena was also deteriorating on key metrics, but started at a higher level on all of them, and that on that one key metric, Makena's worst performance was equal to Brady's best performance (33%).

And that's simply true.

I also pointed out that there was a consistency in the deterioration of both QBs with each subsequent game that they each played. I also corrected the misnomer that Makena was playing "slowed down" versions of the Stitt offense at PSU and ISU, when in fact, Stitt was demanding something closer to HIS preferred offense from Makena in both games and getting poorer results compared to the "actual" slowed down game against UND.

The illuminating part of that was that some observers really did believe what they wrote, whereas the "stats" said the exact opposite.

And of course, at the bottom of the heap, is the question, if Brady "understands" the playbook better, why did Makena get such better results in at least one game, and arguably better results on several metrics in others? If the "Playbook" isn't concerned with the poor rate of third down conversions, then someone needs to offer a reason why.

Hypeventilating notwithstanding, no one has done so. I am curious, what "stat" actually shows Brady not overthrowing and miscommunicating?

You obviously think highly of yourself.

It is misplaced.

Keep your money. You will need it.

You were talking about UND, not NDSU. Makena did not play in the NDSU game.

75...you are one SPECIAL dude...good luck with that...
Don't underestimate yourself in the "special" department.

You're the guy wanting a UM Quarterback to fail, so that you can feel "better" about yourself.

Box, please stop. 75 is far ahead of you and a great poster. By the way, Brady is the guy.

according to 75's metrics, Simis is the guy....guess he is way ahead of me then....

no YOU were talking about the NDSU game and the UM game inflating UND's numbers. I showed you the math to prove that's not true. You obviously can't see that though

With Montana getting 42 points against UND, that was UND's biggest failure of defense of the season. Defense is that part of the game that tries to keep the other side from scoring points. No other team in 2015 scored more points against UND than Montana.

With the loss to Montana, UND lost its season losing games by an average of 20 points.

If you remove Montana from UND's statistics, over the season UND lost by an average of 16.3 points.

In the weekend just following the game with UM, UND kept MSU to just 38 points, not just defeating them on offense -- the Cats were No. 1 -- but keeping them by using that defense thingy well below the 45 point season Cat average, and the Cat's second lowest score of the season.

I don't think you understand what you are talking about.
 
done trying to convince someone with a single digit IQ about basic logic. g'night egriz

P.S. The stat was passing defenses not scoring margin *facepalm*

You are a wonder. The final scores really don't care how you parse the argument. The scoring margin in that game was pretty much based on passing. The fact is, UND provided very good pass coverage in the UM game, and as Coach Stitt -- not me -- specifically stated, it was Makena's passing that put the ball where it needed to be.

That was something that Brady had been unable to do on long passes, and Simis brought two dimensions -- long passing and running -- to the game that Brady did not have. And Makena can throw short passes at the same percentage or better as Brady.

If you need to keep trying to recover your dignity, perhaps you can get Coach Stitt to retract saying what he said, which confirms specifically what the statistics of that game show. And change the stats. And ....

You are arguing here with me, the Coach, and the statistics.

And you are doing so on the basis that you claim to have any idea why you are right and everyone else is wrong? Including the Coach?
 
Eriul's understanding of statistics is poor at best......


The bigger question is which QBs skill set is the right one vs. EWU. We don't need the highest average......

I'm starting to think he's a troll or just someone who isn't the brightest bulb on the tree.

I was debating between free range instigator, Simis relative, or flavor-of-the-month fan with a closet full of Kaepernick and Tebow jerseys.

No stats to back me up though.
 
It was shown on 9/19 how UND compared to NDSU (NDSU 34-9). Brady beat NDSU. Simis' high point was beating UND, who had just lost to Idaho St. and Weber.
