So many single season stats are cemented in our minds. All that has to be recalibrated in our thoughts about player/team productivity.
Gulp.
I was reading the Cam Akers article posted here on ROD and it spoke to 1,500yds as a breakout season. I thought “well… hell yeah, that’s breakout kind of numbers”...
But, I paused and did that little calculation we all will be doing to ratio 16 games… “1500yds = about 1400yds in the old days”. Yada, yada.
Not too long, we will have to do it all over again with 18 games. Having our minds in tune and in calibration to stats won’t be the same for a while.
The extra weeks of football is worth it.
