I hope that people understand that even with "all 22" there are things that we don't know which still limit the conclusions/assumptions that can be made about a given play.

Awhile back on a Titans forum I broke down some "all 22" of Jake Locker and it was crazy some of the conclusions people were making based on the plays we watched.

People will make unwarranted assumptions/conclusions no matter what, all 22 or not, IMO.

But it opens the door wide open for loud and incorrect spurious claims that seem correct and when presented to a casual fan could be pawned off as true.

I don't disagree with you.

But my understanding of human nature tells me that such is already happening. To me the all 22 will simply change what is talked about, not how people talk about it. IMO.

I hope that now people will finally realize how little information some armchair analysts actually have, and that those same analysts will be more forthcoming in what they have access to. No more misleading the reader, just be honest about what you see
