Podcast Talk, Brothers Edition

Can you spot the HOF QB?

Many of you know that my brother, Jamie Stuart, is a sportscaster for News 12. Well, he has his own podcast, and I was invited on to speak about football and analytics. I wasn’t given any of the questions in advance (so much for nepotism helping out), but wound up speaking about Eli Manning, Adam Gase, and analytics. My favorite part is at the end, where I put together an idea I never quite verbalized before: one of the goals of analytics is to help quantify what we see on TV, not tell us that the eye test is wrong. I suspect that in 30 years, the gap between what “the numbers say” and what the eye test says will shrink.
