Consistency of the Yards: Bell's Edition

by RiG on Dec 23, 2008 9:24 PM MST

This is my Second Edition of Consistency of the Yards. Im working on a new formula to take everything into account and provide one resulting Number but its not quite ready-

This Post is focused on Bell and includes all his stats from the KC game until present

Yards	neg(-)	0	1	2	3	4	5
Carries		2	3	7	2	0	3
Consistency		0.95652	0.86957	0.73913	0.43478	0.34783	0.34783

Bell has improved since last time, but not by too much. Last time he had 36% consistency running for 3 yards..... NOW he has 43% consistency running for 3 yards compared to Hillis's limited sample size who had 75% consistency for 3 yards.

95% of the time Bell will at least get back to the line of scrimmage

85% of the time Bell will at least get a yard

1 in every 3 times Bell will gain 5 yards... But that means the other 2 times will be less than 3 yard gains...(since hes never rushed for 4 yards)

1 in every 5 times Bell will get just enough to move the chains on first down

1 in every 20 times Bell will be lucky enough to find around 30 yards of turf to strut his stuff on

3 in every 20 times Bell will fail to make a yard

Bell is basically a change of pace back at best, he will never be a starter or a guy that can handle more than 12 to 15 carries a game

I hope he can manage a decent game against San Diego, but I have a feeling that Denver will abandon therunning game early and put this on Jay Cutler’s arm and hope for a shoot out win.

Yet Bell seems to be the only RB safe from injury

Hes the only RB with a big enough sample to play with

Not good..

This is my GAP, there are many like it but this one is mine. Without my GAP I am useless, without me, they will run through my GAP. I will protect my GAP and have my brothers back on his. I will not be moved from my GAP, I am a crazed dog that patrols this area and will defeat all who entire it. I own this GAP, it is mine. I bought it with blood and sweat. I will not be pushed. I will not be moved. This Sunday I will make a stand and a statement.

Very interesting

It says volumes, even for the limited sample. I’m about to head out of town for a week. Will check to see if you’ve added anything when I get back. Thanks.
