This is basically following the Billy Bean "Moneyball" model at the Oakland Athletics in Major League Baseball over here.  As more and more football games are videoed from multiple angles the quality and relevance of statistics is there for everyone to use if they want to.  For me this is also the way forward if we as a club are going to set some type of consistent style, formations, tactics etc up and down the club.  It is not the be all and end all for everything but it does give a good barometer when analysing performances or signing players and if this can add 20-30% effectiveness to our performances then it is worth doing.

You beat me to it SCO. Let's hope Chansiri reads MS post too.

TBH I think the Seahawks are breaking the NFL moulds and norms for recruitment which has led to their outstanding performances over the last 3 seasons.
