Could you explain this more from a football perspective?I gotta admit, I'm afraid I'm about to be VERY WRONG about Courland Sutton. I thought he was a surefire bust because of his face. But thus far he looks like he's legit. I'll have to watch his play this year but I fear he might be an outlier to a rule that has worked pretty good for me thus far. Which is to not trust nikkas with p*ssy faces.
Courtland Sutton might be joining another Denver Broncos player (Steve Atwater) as a guy who should not be great because of his face but nonetheless ends up being a star.![]()
I'd heard of baseball scouts grading prospects based on "face" since ancient times...the whole advanced stats revolution was supposed to have debunked it, but there have been some recent academic studies on it and it turns out it checks out from a baseball perspective.
Apparently what matters is the ratio between the width of a player's face and the height of their face.
