Numbers don't constantly lie. They just sometimes do. Which is why I always say go to the tape. I wasn't impressed with Bosa's tape that is why his numbers didnt impress me in turn.
Dak Prescott put up big numbers last year and his tape also impressed me. Zeke Elliott put to numbers that impressed me last year and so did his tape. Bosa's tape simply didn't match the impressive stats he put up.
I've never said stats don't matter. Just that they are not dispositive. That is why I said Dobbs was ARGUABLY the best offensive player in school history. If I believed stats were dispositive, I would have said he's the clear cut best offensive player in school history. But I didn't say that.
So, essentially, stats matter when you like what they say, and they lie when you don't.
