Idk I'm in a mood so I'm commenting the same thing again, but, I think the scaling is messing up your logic here.

So the pats looked pretty close to the top corner, but this chart doesn't actually say how much they were beating the chiefs in defensive EPA or how much they were losing in offensive EPA.

They could have been winning the defensive EPA by 3 points and losing the offensive one by 5, and the chart wouldn't be able to show it, so long as the spread on the defensive axis was much tighter than the spread on the offensive axis.it could go the other way too, I'm just saying this chart doesn't necessarily lead to your conclusion.

I think this is amusing, because basically, to draw the conclusion about who is better in overall EPA in any given week, the pats or the chiefs, you must also consider how bad the lions and bears played (or whoever is setting the 0 that week on each axis).

KC: "X axis??... What X axis?"

Pete Carrol can suck a fat one. It’s all about getting the ball down the field and putting points on the board.

I think the scaling makes this unclear.

Since the top team is scaled to 1 and the bottom scaled to 0, the axis with the largest spread is being undervalued and the axis with the tightest spread overvalued.

It's possible that the defensive 0-1 axis is only 1 expected point, but the offensive 0-1 is axis 50 expected points.

Could be the opposite, too, or it could be different week to week. Basically, I think this is a terrible chart to answer that exact question (but a very interesting chart in general).

Menstrual cycle around the 20th, ovulation around the 10th ish? If menstrual cycle impacting that much, maybe endometriosis. Certainly worth a GI consult- excellent data. 10/10, will make a doctors life easier.

I thought that we were in a La Niña year, doesn’t feel like it!

It’s hilarious that my Vikings are basically the median team all year

Sometimes i hang around the bathroom Lucky i work from home

Gotta bump up those retirement contributions.

Technically the best all around team would be the one consistently closest to the top right corner since that is both the best offense and defense combined. Which is either the Bills or Eagles.

More proof that Pete Carrol is what makes a QB great

At what point would you just hang out on the bathroom all day?

What is R?

I’ve come to realize that everyone on Reddit is either pooping waaay to infrequently OR pooping waaay too often. There is no middle ground.

That's like bread, rice, and beans, though.

My family of 7 easily drinks 7 gallons of milk a week, so roughly $25 a week on just one staple. No way y'all are eating fruits, veggies, and meat on ~$100 per week

I'd be interested to see menus and recipes to verify them.

now if you do it again but track what you eat and drink you could see the correlation . For me its Beer and milk that sends me to the bathroom 5 times a day

The big takeaway for me is that offense has more impact on win rate than defense.

Compare the Patriots and Chiefs. Very symmetrical positions on this chart, but Patriots are defense heavy whereas Chiefs are offense heavy. Yet the Chiefs went 14-3 and Patriots went 8-9. According to this, the Patriots had the 2nd best defense in the entire league and had a middle of the pack offense, and yet they went 8-9. That says a lot to me.

What does your diet look like those days? I've had those days from too much beer or spicy/processed foods
