“One of the things I appreciate about listening to PI is that Matthew is not a blinded, jaded, cynical, ridiculously optimistic Vikings’ fan. Like so many fans are. He is a fan of the sport and does a great job of bringing a realistic unvarnished take on the team that I have followed for 40 years. He has great connections in the football, media and analytics worlds and he does a great job of bringing those views to the public.
Matthew uses analytics (as well as his experience and conversations) as a tool to show things that rabid Vike’s fans refuse to see. And he does it both ways: to the blindly optimistic he shows the areas to be realistic. To the hardened cynic, he shows the areas to be realistic. Matthew has never insinuated he knows more than a GM. Although, I have heard many fans claim that. Often it’s the ones calling other people a “condescending know-it-all”.”
