FanGraphs Audio: Brian Burke, Advanced NFL Stats
Episode 262
Advanced NFL Stats is more or less to gridiron football what FanGraphs is to baseball — with the caveat, perhaps, that football is fluid (as opposed to baseball, which is turn-based) and presents certain challenges for that reason. Brian Burke, the proprietor of said nerdly internet website, is the guest on this edition of FanGraphs Audio.

You Aren't a FanGraphs Member
It looks like you aren't yet a FanGraphs Member (or aren't logged in). We aren't mad, just disappointed.
We get it. You want to read this article. But before we let you get back to it, we'd like to point out a few of the good reasons why you should become a Member.
1. Ad Free viewing! We won't bug you with this ad, or any other.
2. Unlimited articles! Non-Members only get to read 10 free articles a month. Members never get cut off.
3. Dark mode and Classic mode!
4. Custom player page dashboards! Choose the player cards you want, in the order you want them.
5. One-click data exports! Export our projections and leaderboards for your personal projects.
6. Remove the photos on the home page! (Honestly, this doesn't sound so great to us, but some people wanted it, and we like to give our Members what they want.)
7. Even more Steamer projections! We have handedness, percentile, and context neutral projections available for Members only.
8. Get FanGraphs Walk-Off, a customized year end review! Find out exactly how you used FanGraphs this year, and how that compares to other Members. Don't be a victim of FOMO.

10. Help support FanGraphs and our entire staff! Our Members provide us with critical resources to improve the site and deliver new features!
We hope you'll consider a Membership today, for yourself or as a gift! And we realize this has been an awfully long sales pitch, so we've also removed all the other ads in this article. We didn't want to overdo it.

Dang. Was hoping this was Brian Burke, noted messer-upper of hockey teams.
Was hoping for the same thing.
I find it invasive and annoying that you felt the need to pollute a baseball website with content involving other sports. This is a site for baseball.
This is a site for baseball, please leave all your crybaby pollution on

i love fangraphs people
oh my god a podcast about football on fangraphs JESUS WHAT A DISASTER
oh my god a podcast with dayn perry and they dont even mention SIERA or Z-swing% heat maps once WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT
Good lord, it was one person. Talk about sample sizes…
cistulli has to put a disclaimer at the beginning of the (outstanding) Perry podcasts because I guess some people don’t like the lack of SUPER HARDCORE BASEBALL ONLY TALK
This was fascinating. I listened to it twice.
What is a pirate’s favorite computer program??
R!!!!!!!!!!!
FanGraphs Audio is not a bad one. But i think 52 min is a waste of time. It is totally boring. Again a podcast about football on fangraphs,what a shame.
