Book excerpt: For the over 14 million people who play fantasy football every year; for the hardcore fan who wants information beyond sports page recaps; for everyone who bets on the NFL; and for the smart, casual enthusiast looking for entertainment and insight comes the essential preseason annual. With numerous statistical measures that go far beyond standard NFL stats, Pro Football Prospectus assesses the DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average) of every single skill player and determines how many points better a starting player is over the average bench player; measures special teams; offers advanced offensive line statistics; analyzes teams' abilities to convert draft picks into quality players; and much more. And like its sister publication, Baseball Prospectus, it's written with a knowing dry wit that gets under the skin of America's most popular spectator sport. Compared by The New York Times Magazine to Bill James, the baseball statistics guru, Aaron Schatz is revolutionizing the world of football statistics. In just two years his Web site, FootballOutsiders.com, is "by a huge margin, the Web's best independent football site," writes Gregg Easterbrook of NFL.com. Salon calls it "a must for anyone interested in going beyond 'This guy has more yards, so he must be better.'" Now Schatz and his team of Football Outsiders are continuing their groundbreaking work with a comprehensive, authoritative book of sophisticated statistical analysis. It also offers solid predictions: in 2004, the Outsiders predicted six of eight division winners, including the Steelers' champion season; the fading year of Ahman Green and Jamal Lewis; and the breakout of the New York Jets.

Download or read book Pro Football Forecast 2005 Edition written by Aaron Schatz and published by . This book was released on 2005-07 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may think you know football, but without the "Pro Football ForecastTM you don't know what you're missing. The "ForecastTM goes beyond mere totals to take a new approach to football stats, with unique numbers for offense, defense, and even the lowly kicker and punter. If you look at the totals only, they don't give you the full story. Take Eddie George's numbers in 2003. He gained more than 1,000 yards but needed an enormous number of carries to each that milestone. One back matched George's yardage with over seventy fewer carries; imagine what Steve McNair would do with seventy extra snaps! The "ForecostTM also provides defensive ratings. compiling all the good things a defender does and comparing players position by position, both from last year and throughout recent history. As for Kickers, everyone knows that fifty-yard field goals are tougher than chip shots and that booming a punt and pinning a team deep are two totally different skills. The ForecostTM turns that knowledge into firm numbers, with hard stats to show the difference. Of course, the ForecostTM still provides a look at each team's recent past and its future, discussing the forthcoming seasin and why last season turned out as it did. There's also a research essay for cach team, taking a look at an interesting question that specifically applies to that team (and often to the league as a whole). On top of all that you get information for your fantasy leagues--"rankings by positions, projections for how the skill players will do in the 2005 season. and tips on who to avoid and who might be a good sleeper. If you're looking for a book that lets you know the NFL--"really know the NFL, from top to bottom--"then you'relooking for the ForecostTM.

Book excerpt: "It was a season where the impossible became possible. It was a season where the hard to believe became believable." --Marv Levy, Pro Football Hall of Fame Coach. The 1973 Buffalo Bills made pro football history. They had an offense that broke several important rushing records during that memorable year. And they had a superstar running back by the name of O.J. Simpson, who broke a glass ceiling of sorts by becoming the first man -- and indeed the only man -- to ever rush for more than 2,000 yards in one 14-game regular season. That glory-filled accomplishment provided the celebrated culmination to this epic tale of a week-by-week journey from an initial goal to its triumphant ending. In The 2,003-Yard Odyssey: The Juice, The Electric Company, and an Epic Run for a Record, several members of that Buffalo Bills team recall their memories of that year. They discuss how that 1973 season began with a bunch of question marks, then how a boast by one of their offensive linemen led to a challenge for the whole squad to address. A major focus in this book are the feats of the incomparable O.J. Simpson, who earned pro football fame and glory with his record-breaking 1973 performance. This story recounts how Simpson set a mark that was thought of by most people to be impossible to achieve. It was an odyssey unlike any other in NFL annals, and it is explored in concentrated depth and detail within these pages. Joe Zagorski is a member of the Pro Football Writers of America and the Pro Football Researchers Association. He has written several previous books about various teams and players of the NFL. He is also a contributing writer to the website Pro Football Journal and the administrator of the Facebook page, The NFL in the 1970s. He resides in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Marv Levy, who wrote the foreword for this book, is a coaching legend in both the United States and in Canada. He led the Buffalo Bills to four straight Super Bowl appearances from 1990 to 1993. He is also an honored member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Download or read book Green Bay Packers written by William Povletich and published by Wisconsin Historical Society. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the field, legends like Don Hutson, Ray Nitschke, and Brett Favre made the Green Bay Packers into a professional football powerhouse. But the history of the NFL’s only small-town franchise is as much a story of business creativity as gridiron supremacy. Behind every Packer who became a legend on the field, there was an Andrew Turnbull, Dominic Olejniczak, or Bob Harlan, leaders whose dedication and creativity in preserving the franchise were unwavering. Green Bay Packers: Trials, Triumphs, and Traditions tells the improbable story of professional football’s most iconic team, and along the way gives a unique window into the rise of modern professional sports. As the NFL has evolved into a financial juggernaut, the Green Bay Packers, with more than 112,158 stockholders, stand alone as the only professional sports franchise owned by fans, thus providing the only public record of how a sports team is run. Featuring more than 300 photographs, some never before seen, Green Bay Packers illustrates how the most creative team in sports is also one of the most successful, with names like Lambeau, Canadeo, Lombardi, Hornung, Holmgren, and White leading the way to a league-best thirteen NFL titles and twenty-one Hall of Fame inductees. This comprehensive, up-to-date history of the Packers includes the 2011 season.
