Turnover margin by the numbers

Slinde:

As you would assume:

"Outside of the 2007 season, which looks to be cause for another statistical analysis all to itself, there is an extreme difference between the turnover differential for the Bison in wins as opposed to losses."

I think you'll find that is fairly common for all teams at all levels of football.

Nice audit, Baudit: Example: Vikes v. Saints in NFC Championship last year. Rare to win a game if TO margin between teams is +2 or more.

Sorry, but this sort of non-analysis, analysis irritates me. I hate it when Tim McCarver tells the world that the "Yankees are 95 and 2 when taking a lead of 2 runs or more into the 8th inning." Or some stupid thing like that.

Yes, Tim, they are. But guess what? So is everyone else.

This sort of stuff may tell you something about the game or the sport but it tells you nothing about the team. When it's presented like that the context is all wrong.

To me this imply's that the 2007 team found ways to win, that were not the standard...
