    I love metrics, analytics, and how they interact in the sports world, but I’m completely at a loss as to PFF’s treatment of the Rams this offseason.

    It might come off as a typical ‘jilted fan’ post, but whatever. The Rams were the youngest team in football, lost no free agents of note, played in the toughest division in football, played the 3rd most difficult schedule in football, and did all of that without their starting QB for half a season. They still finished at basically .500 with a point differential that backs that up. In other words, by all measures, they were a .500 talent team at minimum, who certainly didn’t get worse and (when you consider their draft ammunition) almost certainly got better.

    And somehow in PFF’s eyes they are almost as bad as the historically bad Jags.

    PFF goes and rates our front 7 as the best in the league but when you look at the roster analysis they rate most of them as below average. It just doesn’t jive.

    Only one playmaker, Quinn. None on the O. Everybody loves playmakers…
