    I'm sorry I brough such a depressing topic into the blog.  A little back story without too much detail. I met my friend 12 years ago during an AF commissioning program. He was on top of the world

You missed out, it was a great time. I somehow became a Julian Lurie stan and now I'm too committed to the bit to stop

In Julian's defense, NFL owners aren't exactly know for their rugged masculine features181995800_download(3).jpeg.1ce6f7b66811eb684e6da3fa662179eb.jpeg2085538936_WilfZygi.jpg.266f85bbde241426de945411650ba259.jpgmarkdavis1xoburkolhqm.jpg.c18f0a5b402b85555be6858f94d7ffb9.jpg

When is middle aged slightly over-weight Scandinavian American male month? Asking for a friend.  

Tuesdays or that might be ladies' night but just take it.

There’s a legit concern that Julian will be bad at leading the analytics charge. We truly have no idea how he’ll do. I guess the over arching concern is how comfortable you are with the team leaning too heavily on analytics.

In baseball, analytics is far superior because the sample size is far larger and the players are on an island, so to speak. 
 

Football can certainly use analytics, but it’s a tool; one of many and shouldn’t be overused. I think it is concerning that Julian, when he eventually takes over, leans further into analytics than Jeffy. 
 

But being angry that Julian was given a job is dumb

I don't think the problem is data size for analytics.  I think the problem is not understanding what analytics is and what it is not.  It's information about probability of a certain outcome in play calling.  It's not a substitute for decision making and design. I do wonder if Lurie serves as a check on Roseman.  The criticism of Roseman is that he keeps the analytics department too separate from the coaches.  Maybe Lurie can bridge those departments without Roseman trying to fire him.  In any event, it sounds like his position is like a marketing one.

Nick had the 28-2 year and a ring. But Fitz has been more consistent

Skill wise? Probably. 
 

Just wandering around the league cashing checks? gotta be Chase Daniel. 

Kurt Warner if he can be considered journeyman. 

Rams: Backup to starter to backup.

Giants: Starter to backup.

Cardinals: Starter to backup to starter.

PTSD doesn’t require a trigger. Had a friend who was a jungle rat in Nam. Silence outdoors at night could leave him shaking uncontrollably.  

Silence in the jungle is typically a sign that nothing good is about to happen.

Exactly.  What does this actually mean ?? Business and Football Operations Strategy

Here is what it means.  If Lurie didn't have a kid, he wouldn't have a Business and Football Strategist and life would go on....as it should now.  

Guy Fieri has a new show where he takes his kids on a road trip and goes to different restaurants. What a freakin joke. It should be me he’s taking to flavortown.

I've mentioned how much I'm a nerd about gear.  DeVonta and AJ Brown in the Schutt F7.  MUCH better look IMO.  Love Schutt helmets.
