Download or read book Pro Football Almanac written by Mark Wald and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-29 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part reference and part history, this first volume of the Pro Football Almanac collects the betting lines for more than 13,000 pro football games dating back to 1940, including complete NFL seasons since 1954. An opening essay on the history of the pointspread sets the stage for the data that follows. In a lively, flowing narrative, Wald traces the evolution of the pointspread from its beginning as a crude adjunct to betting odds to the standard betting option for football that it is today. Debunking myths and confirming others, Wald shines a spotlight on a subject that continues to be one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented in sports. Of course, the heart of Volume I is the data. Covering three professional leagues (NFL-AFL-AAFC) and over 40 teams, historians and data geeks alike could spend five years on a sandy spit with this tome before dog-earing the pages. Featuring lists of pro football's greatest coaches against the spread and top 5 games as favorite and underdog by team, the Pro Football Almanac, Vol I is the most thoroughly researched work ever published on the subject.

Book excerpt: Alabama’s Crimson Tide has been the most dominant college football team in America for the past decade, winning five national championships and five conference titles. The team, under coach Nick Saban, has won an astounding ninety percent of its games since 2008, and established a dynasty unparalleled in modern college football. As impressive as Saban and his teams have been, these are far from the only glory days in Alabama football history, and their great tradition is celebrated in Miracle Moments in Alabama Crimson Tide Football History.

Three decades later, Alabama pulled off a stunning 20–19 upset of West Coast powerhouse Washington in the 1926 Rose Bowl, won its first national championship, and took its place among the elite teams in America with seventeen national titles through eras coached by Wallace Wade, Frank Thomas, the legendary Paul “Bear” Bryant, Gene Stallings, and Saban. Along the way, some of the best players in the nation have been a part of this extraordinary program—from Don Hutson, Harry Gilmer, Joe Namath, Ken Stabler, John Hannah, Lee Roy Jordan, Derrick Thomas, and Cornelius Bennett to Julio Jones, Amari Cooper, Mark Barron, Dont’a Hightower, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Calvin Ridley, and Heisman Trophy winners Mark Ingram Jr. and Derrick Henry.

Download or read book 2023 Fantasy Football Almanac written by Sean Ryan and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fantasy Football Almanac Last Updated On 7/27/2023 and includes analysis on DeAndre Hopkins signing with the Titans! Have you noticed most 2023 Fantasy Football Magazines and Fantasy Football Books tend to recycle the same information, the same sleepers and the same tiers? This is because they're all using the same information: last year's stats! A few years ago, I was like everyone else. I scoured the Internet and Fantasy Football publications searching for any advantage. I found myself reading 10-15 different books that all wound up telling me the same thing. Making things worse - they were telling all of my competition as well. That's when "sleeper" picks become overhyped and over drafted. To avoid draft day misses, I knew I had to dig into the data. I knew I had to watch film and after a while, I came to realize Fantasy Football success comes from knowing the offensive schemes and how a player's talents will be used in an offense. This is why the Fantasy Football Almanac projects players based on scheme fit, not past performance. Think about this. If all my Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide did was tell you about one undervalued player who is so far forgotten you could draft him and start him in the last round, would it be worth it? Or if all this Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide did was keep you from using your draft day picks on season-long busts? This is more than a fantasy football magazine. It's a fantasy football scouting agency. We blend next-gen sports analytics with good old fashion film study. I literally watch every single preseason game in order to properly calibrate this guide's rankings throughout the offseason. That's right, The Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide comes with FREE updates. You don't have to pay $5 a month to access them. If you buy the book, we have you covered. Included Within: 390+ detailed player writeups with three-year statistical progression included Instructions on how to interact with the author throughout the offseason Over half of the league has a new head coach or offensive coordinator. How does this impact fantasy potential? Sean shares insights based on film study and statistical analysis to project the impact of new offensive schemes. We've updated our algorithms to include play calling tendency of coaching staffs Other guides use historical data to project their totals. The Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide is the only fantasy football magazine that utilizes scouting for future rankings. Our draft strategy is primed to maximize the value of every draft pick. Defense and Kicker analysis has been completed to identify competitive advantage at these positions, which are commonly ignored We've completed an easy-to-follow draft guide with useful tips for fantasy football rookies and fantasy football experts alike Overall player "tiers" definition (which is more useful for draft strategy when playing in leagues with multiple team counts) Expanded sleeper list that is rooted in scouting, coaching analysis and analytics. You won't find these players in other guides! Risky players list, which identifies popular players that carry risk, are over-drafted based on our analysis and/or carry significant bust potential Fantasy Rankings for different league types: PPR, Non-PPR, 1/2 PPR, SuperFlex/Two QB, Dynasty, Rookie-only drafts and IDP We track 2023 offseason movement, coaching changes and draft selections

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you noticed most 2020 Fantasy Football Magazines and Fantasy Football Books tend to recycle the same information, the same sleepers and the same tiers? This is because they're all using the same information: last year's stats! Last year's stats won't tell you how Mike McCarthy will utilize Ezekiel Elliot. They won't tell you if Mark Rhule is going to keep feeding Christian McCaffrey the ball. But The 2020 Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide does! A few years ago, I was like everyone else. I scoured the Internet and Fantasy Football publications searching for any advantage I could find. I found myself reading 10-15 different books that all wound up telling me the same thing. Making things worse - they were telling all of my competition as well. That's when "sleeper" picks become overhyped and over drafted. To avoid draft day misses, I knew I had to dig into the data. I knew I had to watch film and after a while, I cam to one undeniable truth: Fantasy Football success comes from knowing the offensive schemes and how a player's talents will be used in an offense. This is why (as my Fantasy Football Book predicted) Lamar Jackson flourished in last year under Greg Roman's coaching and Le'Veon Bell disappointed in Adam Gase's offensive scheme). In fact, 7 of our 8 "Too Risky" picks were busts last season! Think about this. If all my Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide did was tell you about one sleeper who is so far forgotten you could draft him and start him in the last round, would it be worth it? My readers who picked up Darren Waller and Devin Singletary in the late rounds last year think so.
