Are Analytics Ruining the Game of Football?

On today’ Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett and the Go-2-Guy Jim Moore open up the show and it get dominated by an outstanding column that Jim wrote at JimMooreTheGo2Guy.substack.com about certain things in the NFL that bothers him.  Yes, it’s the most popular sport but some things are wrong with it like the over analytical commentary, the kickoff rules and personal foul penalties! 

Puck and Jim also touch in on the college football playoff rankings and Puck can’t understand what the hell Washington State hoops coach David Riley was thinking in their Tuesday night loss to Bradley! 

Puck also highlights shows from this week involving “Inside Pitch” with Ryan Divish, John Canzano on the JaMarcus Shephard hire and their Old Crimson Cougars Podcast on the job that Jimmy Rogers has done in his first year. 

On this weeks, “Inside The Bloody Trenches” with Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.com, Puck and Rob discuss the Seattle Seahawks' recent victory over the Minnesota Vikings, focusing on the team's defensive performance and the standout play  Leonard Williams. They dive into the importance of character and leadership within the team, the up and down performance of  Sam Darnold, and the upcoming games that will determine the Seahawks' playoff prospects. The discussion also highlights the underperformance of Rashid Shaheed and the need for him to make a significant impact moving forward.

“On This Day…”   Bob Marley, Latrell Sprewell, Ozzy Osbourne and the creator of Napster all covered.  

Puck wraps up with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”   College football is so popular but it needs so much help
