The StatsBomb NFL Physical Metrics Championship 2024

Aug 13, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Matt Edwards

I love the Olympics. I’ve been lucky enough to attend events at a few different games and there’s just something magical about them. Big events like track and field, gymnastics, and soccer are amazing. But I’ve enjoyed going to see sports like handball, badminton, judo, and even ping pong as well. Paris 2024 has had some incredible performances across the games, but the Track and Field races have been especially memorable.
Who are the fastest receivers in CFB?

Aug 6, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Matt Edwards

With Xavier Worthy moving on to the NFL, Texas had to look elsewhere to replace that speed. They dipped into the transfer portal to sign two of the top transfers available: Isaiah Bond and Silas Bolden. Alabama used Bond as a deep threat specialist last season, and Texas hopes he can similarly stretch the field for Quinn Ewers this fall. Bond’s top 3 routes run last year were Go, Post, and Dig, and those were some of his highest targeted routes as well.
Which CFB Edge Rushers have an elite Get Off?

Jul 30, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Matt Edwards

I hate playing defense on EA College Football 25. I have never really enjoyed it on any of the previous versions, but this version seems especially bad. I hate defense so much that for my dynasty I started as an OC and only play when my team is on offense. When I do have to play defense however (online dynasty is NOT going to be friendly to me), there is only one position I play: Edge Defender. The base rush on EA College Football 25 is the speed rush.
Measuring Throw-In Success

Jul 23, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Jaymes Monte

In the 2023/24 Premier League season, there were an average of ∼35 throw-ins per game. Roughly 25% of them were in the throwing team’s defensive third, and the remaining 75% were more or less evenly shared between middle and attacking thirds. Although these numbers naturally fluctuate slightly depending on the competition and season that you consider, few fall outside the 35-45 per game range. That’s around 20 throw-ins per team, per game.
Accuracy, Quality & Scale: How StatsBomb Creates Football Data

Jul 16, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Matt Edwards

In early 2022, StatsBomb became a multi-sport data provider as we moved into American football. For years, we have been the world leader in soccer data, and we used that experience to produce the premier data offering for football. In those short 2 years, we have gone from people wondering who we are to wowing people with our data and analytics tools.
Investigating the effectiveness of press coverage

Jun 14, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Matt Edwards

Investigating the effectiveness of press coverage “To press, or not to press, that is the question. Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer the easy catches, and yards playing off leverage,or to take up arms against a sea of receivers, and by pressing disrupt them?” What’s that? That’s not how that goes? That’s too bad.
Using Data In The Search For A New Manager

Jun 13, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Jaymes Monte

Where we can analyse data in more depth, however, is in relation to a manager’s style of play. We can get a quick insight into this using the StatsBomb IQ platform by comparing some team style metrics (filtered to periods where a specific manager has been in charge) and comparing the two. I have no insight into the style of play that Sheffield Wednesday want to implement, or even if they have a particularly focussed game model.
Reviewing the 2024 NFL Draft

May 1, 2024 | statsbomb.com | Matt Edwards

The opening of the 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit went exactly as you'd expect. The boos when Roger Goodell walked onto the stage, quickly turned to cheers when Eminem joined him, then back to boos when the commissioner started talking. The crowd kept getting louder, rising to a fever pitch as each successive Lions great came to the microphone. It may be the offseason, but the crowd (the largest in NFL Draft history for the full weekend) was in midseason form.
