Who does the Rams offense run through, @friscojosh?

Imagine being so hyper-partisan you can’t appreciate the greatness of Todd Gurley— 31 touches 195 yards 1 TD (should’ve been 2) twitter.com/davismattek/st…

Someone ask Silva to update this one: twitter.com/evansilva/stat…

Remember all those tweets a few weeks back saying how the Jags’ offense was so much better without Fournette? 🤫

@friscojosh @Justinharvey088 @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper 1— “Stable metric” with zero context is meaningless, not to mention “talent” is a subjective term. 2— You made no argument as to how Gurley’s pass catching prowess is a result of Mcvay’s scheme. Kind of a big omission. Happy to let you have the last word. 🍺

@friscojosh @Justinharvey088 @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper I read it and came away w the following — — You deliberately left out any mention of Gurley’s significant contributions as a pass catcher — You provided zero evidence for your broken/missed tackles = talent claim — You didn’t provide the sample size of TG rushes vs 7-man boxes

@friscojosh @Justinharvey088 @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper So ..... the offense runs through him, or no?

@friscojosh @Justinharvey088 @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper Who does the offense run through, Josh? In the meantime, feel free to provide ANY evidence for your “missed & broken tackles” broken claims. I thought 538 had editorial standards?

@Justinharvey088 @friscojosh @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper Yep, he’s a system RB, just like Tom Brady & Aaron Rodgers are system QBs. Solid analysis.

@FantasyFbPundit @friscojosh @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper So would 20 other backs in that system

@friscojosh @Justinharvey088 @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper Mama there goes that man.

@Justinharvey088 @DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper @friscojosh The Rams offense runs through Todd Gurley. This is not in dispute.

@DaDamnGeek @Lil_Jacky_Paper @friscojosh Build the offense around gurley.

Good chance this goes down as the worst take of 2018: twitter.com/friscojosh/sta…

@Jason_Fratz @friscojosh Josh, is this piece of your argument sincerely based on a 13-carry sample size? Please confirm.

@friscojosh Gurley faces an 8+ man box about 10% of the time. He has 129 carries this year, so half your argument here is based on 13 carries for Gurley? Nice. And the Rams see more 6 man boxes than anyone else and as YOUR stats showed Gurley is the BEST against those boxes. Trash this piece

@friscojosh @MasterTes Would love to see the evidence.

@friscojosh @MasterTes Your post didn't cite a single point of evidence to support that claim. You also conveniently ignored Gurley's role as a pass catcher in that offense. Why did you do that?

@friscojosh @MasterTes Also, half your argument rests on this single presumption -- "If you use broken and missed tackles as a proxy for talent" -- which is specious at best. Seems like you're jumping through hoops to discredit Gurley.

@friscojosh @MasterTes Apologies, neutral. Question still stands.

This take did not age well. twitter.com/cole_kev/statu…

@friscojosh @MasterTes Josh, why did you so blatantly gloss over Gurley’s ridiculous efficiency against 6-man boxes but go to great pains to highlight his YPC vs stacked boxes?
