This week's post is going to focus on getting started with the BDB. I have a series of 4 planned for the next two weeks to help get newbies with some base programming knowledge go from zero to a basic model with tracking data. If you have questions, please ask!

More midnight kicker madness. They say Brady was the goat, but look at that FG percentage in pressure situations and just overall percentages stratified by depth. GOATkowski

Just as a comparison, check out recently cut Younghoe Koo. Better FG% at every distance, greater range, etc. The expectations have changed a lot as kickers have raised the bar.

Working on a project on field goal kicking and falling down a Martin "Automatica" Gramatica highlights. The dude was elite back in the day when a 50+ kick was a feat. That said, his career stats make you realize how far field goal kickers have come in terms of skill level.
