Causality is different for the different currencies there, some had a huge drop at the end of 2021 and then recovered at the very start of 2022, others had an steady grow over years, and there are more patterns depending on the currency. Is not so easy to reach accurate conclusion just based on that.

How about the Bears? Middled around 0.5 offense but worse defense in the league. Finished with the #1 overall pick. All their wins came early when the defense was higher rated than the offense.

In my opinion football is all about matchups and coaching strategies. In the last two super bowls the more defensive team beat the more offensive one. But obviously things always change.

My biggest example I can think of is when that Super Bowl where the Giants d line basically beat the undefeated Patriots on their own.

Finally someone I can relate to. Two a day is absolute minimum for me and oh it is a rare day. I blame Lactose intolerance, coffee 3 times a day, stressful work. Cut bread also, but no difference huh. Have a great day my frequent poopers.

is scaling from 0 to 1 based on worst and best a norm in the NFL stats field? I feel like doing a more typical scaling based on z-score (0 is league average, value is based on standard deviations from mean, no theoretical bounds) would be better, since one team doing especially well/badly can make the other teams seem significantly worse/better than they actually might be (you especially see this in the first weeks with the red dashed lines)

That's what happens when you intentionally nuke your roster by trading your two stars mid-season after getting rid of your other pro bowler (mack) prior to the season and also get injuries in your secondary.

But we have the #1 overall, a clear franchise quarterback for the first time ever, and a shit ton of cap space... so that's something.

yeah using a ruler I'm getting the mid point of the Taekwando bulges at 80, 70, 60 and the classes are 58, 68, 80 so the violin plot is almost certainly smoothing (which I'm fine with as otherwise the chart wouldn't be visually pleasing)

Interested to know what the tiny bulge in Taekwando is just above the 58kg peak
