    ESPN and League Dominator

    I'm getting the same bad gateway error when I try to add new leagues. For the leagues it seems to already know about, I can press Sync and it looks like it succeeds, but it does not pull in any rosters. (It does seem to get the league scoring rules ok though).

    ESPN and League Dominator

    I just tried re-loading League Dominator in chrome and did not get the prompt to install in the extension no matter what I tried. Hey @Joe Bryant is there a trick to getting to the "install the extension" instructions? Edit: I found the extension in the Chrome store and installed it but I'm...

    Help Please - Kicking tires on Rate My Team?

    OK it finally worked for me and my ESPN league. One thing I noticed immediately is that I don't think it took our 2-QB league format into account. It ranked the team with the worst QB's (Jimmy G, Mac Jones) as the best in the league, and the writeup included the standard 1-QB advice of waiting...

    Help Please - Kicking tires on Rate My Team?

    @Gally @houston @heaton76 @Joe Bryant I just tried to setup ESPN leagues using the Chrome browser and it worked! Edit: I mean league dominator. Haven't tried Rate my Team yet. Edit 2: Rate my Team fails to login on Rate my Team, even on Chrome. But yay for League Dominator! :)

    Help Please - Kicking tires on Rate My Team?

    Neat. I use Firefox most of the time but am happy to use Chrome for this purpose. As a former software engineer, I have always found MyFBG/League Dominator fascinatingly ambitious and would love to have been a fly on the wall for its evolution over the years.

    Help Please - Kicking tires on Rate My Team?

    I saw a Zendesk post indicating that FBG is aware of the ESPN synch issue and they're working on it. But no details or ETA. I wonder if ESPN changed their API (or otherwise moved to block 3rd party scrapers). That would suck.

    Target Trends Post-Week 4

    As always, I found using the free tools I made as a side project:  Target Sorter and Target Analyzer. Greg Olsen's target share fell from 30.4% last week to a dismal 12.5% this week - did the Texans decide to take away Allen's favorite target, or was this simply because I started Olsen at the...

    Target Trends Week 3

    OK @davearm it's not on the Target pages yet, but here it is (the toggle) on the Sortable QB Stats page: https://nocheckdowns.com/app/sortable-stats/ The two little gold chart icons.  Kick the tires and tell me what you think?  I'll likely be adding this same sort of thing to the other pages...

    Passing Visuals from TNF Week 4

    Field Graphic of Wentz Passes Field Graphic of Rodgers Passes Interactive Version   (Select Rodgers or Wentz, then toggle to week 4) Similar accuracy numbers (when accounting for depth anyway), but Rodgers threw 2x as many passes and for > 2x yards.  Hard to imagine losing such a game...

    Target Trends Week 3

    @davearm aww yes we think alike.  We tell our biz clients, for instance, that if you're not using "per day" or "per workday" metrics, you may THINK you're steering, but really you're just drifting. But oh boy, there's a lot of work ahead of me :)

    Target Trends Week 3

    hey folks, we had a glitch in the data for two games in week 3 and that impact target share percentages for folks on 4 teams.  see the edit to original post.

    New Tool: Impact of Receiver Drops

    Let me check on the site...  ok, four for Big Ben alone.  Rudolph has four players tied with 1 drop each, I'm sure one of those is also Moncrief.

    New Tool: Impact of Receiver Drops

    In the early season I'm trying to give y'all 1-2 new tools per week to complement the excellent stats tools at FBG. So far it looks like Target Sorter and Target Analyzer are the faves, followed by QB Sortable Stats and Passing Dashboard. Today's new tool is Impact of Drops.  I suspect it...

    Target Trends Week 3

    @Biabreakable that was great.  Like I said, I should leave the commentary to folks other than myself.  I'm a numbers guy but for some reason when we talk football, I get a bit sidetracked from the discipline. Back to building the tools :)

    Target Trends Week 3

    Yeah I think so, but only if something forces the Vikings to start throwing more.  Injuries, increased strength of schedule (either strong rush d's or strong opposing offenses), or perhaps teams just start stacking the box and daring them to throw.

    Target Trends Week 3

    Yeah it's terrible on mobile.  I'm sorry about that, not much i can do on this budget.  Microsoft's platform makes desktop easy and low cost but then I have to spend big bucks to get the mobile stuff working. (Maybe in a few weeks if this starts driving any biz to our data consulting company...

    Target Trends Week 3

    Yeah Dak is KILLING it.  By any metric.  Check out the depth of target and % attempts beyond sticks metrics for Winston and his receivers.  They are throwing deeper than others.  But still.  Winston isn't winning any accuracy awards. And thanks for the kind words.  My pleasure to finally put...

    Just Released: Interactive Target Visualizer

    Since you were reviewing Kupp I thought you'd like to know that in follow-on film review today, we subtracted a Kupp week 3 drop and put it on Goff as inaccurate: https://twitter.com/NoCheckdowns/status/1176933701541924871

    Target Trends Week 3

    Absolutely.  I want requests like this actually.  Keep 'em coming. That's what I'm talking about.  Analysis like this.  Love it.  Keep THAT coming too!

    Target Trends Week 3

    Ya it's not super obvious.  When you open the dropdown, if you click NEXT to the search icon and start typing, you should be in business. Let me know if that doesn't work. There's just too many receivers to do the "click on head shot" filter.
