Okay, folks, let’s dive into this “Brandon Aubrey or Jake Moody” thing I tackled today. It wasn’t exactly rocket science, but it was something I wanted to figure out for myself.
So, I started by, you know, just thinking about it. What was I really trying to compare? Their kicking stats? Their overall impact on games? I needed to narrow it down. It felt a bit all over the place at first.
Then I jumped onto the web. Just started searching, plain and simple. “Brandon Aubrey stats,” “Jake Moody stats,” stuff like that. I didn’t use any fancy tools, just regular old Google. I opened a bunch of tabs – probably too many, honestly – with articles, stats pages, and even some fan forums (those are always a wild ride).
Next, I started to jot down some notes. Nothing formal, just a simple text file. I copied and pasted key stats – field goal percentages, extra point success rates, longest field goals, that kind of thing. I wanted to get it all in one place so I could actually see the numbers side-by-side.
Compare
- Field Goal Percentage: I looked at this first. Seemed like the most obvious thing to compare for kickers.
- Extra Points: Gotta make those, right? I checked how consistent they were with the “chip shots.”
- Longest Field Goal: Just for fun, I noted their longest successful kicks. Shows their range, I guess.
- Clutch Kicks: This was harder to quantify. I scanned through game summaries looking for mentions of game-winning or game-tying kicks.
After getting all that data down, I started to see some patterns. One guy was a bit more consistent, the other had a slightly stronger leg. It wasn’t a clear-cut “this guy is way better” situation, which is probably why people are always debating it!
Finally, I formed my own opinion. I won’t bore you with who I picked, but I felt like I had a much better understanding of both players after doing this little exercise. It wasn’t about finding the “right” answer, it was more about learning the process of comparing players myself.
So, yeah, that’s how I spent a chunk of my day. Maybe not the most exciting thing, but I enjoy digging into these kinds of comparisons. It’s all about the process, you know?
