SumerSports Show

Thanksgiving edition of the SumerSports Show! We talk about the Chargers, Zach Wilsons' benching, the Commanders, the Broncos and answer listener questions.

Eric and Thomas discuss modeling player evaluation using multiple different methods, compare the 2022 Minnesota Vikings to the 2021 Los Angeles Rams, determine what Jeff Saturday's win against the Raiders means, and answer listener questions.

Eric and Thomas discuss scouting the top-end prospects versus the diamonds in the rough, whether we're aiming too high at the quarterback position, the Colts debacle and answer some listener questions.

Eric and Thomas discuss the history of football analytics in the wake of the Carnegie Mellon Sports Analytics Conference, the state of 2021 quarterback class and how difficult it is to move on from a struggling quarterback, Mike Vrabel's secret sauce as the Titans head coach, and preview some week 9 games.

Eric and Thomas discuss the analytics surrounding the Chiefs' new approach to the wide receiver position, the Panthers-49ers trade, the current situation in Green Bay, Matt Ryan's benching, Nathaniel Hackett's future in Denver, coaching hires in general, and what to do when you value a player in the draft more highly than the market.

Thomas and Eric discuss offensive line evaluation and development, before talking about the current situation with the Carolina Panthers. They conclude with a discussion of the SBLIV rematch between the Chiefs and the 49ers.

Thomas and Eric record early this week due to being out of town. They discuss week 5 of the NFL season, including the close-game success of Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah in his first year. They also touch on the state of player development in the NFL, and how Geno Smith fits into the current quarterback landscape, which is currently void of a middle class.

In the first episode of the SumerSports Show, Eric Eager and Thomas Dimitroff talk about joining Sumer, the company's mission and the mission of the podcast. They follow it up with news around the league and make picks for the league's biggest games this weekend.
