      Sheldon is one of the smartest guys, people around him get offended easily his IQ might be high but his EQ was not. If They know how to behave with him others say dealing with him things would have different with them. His father, memaw, Amy, Raj, Howard, and even Lenord's mom know how to use his knowledge.

When the slipped defense comes around the end, the QB has the option to hand off to the RB, or in some cases keep if the slipped defender takes to the RB like they usually will, the QB keeps it and runs around the Collison.

      Statistically, you're better off judging the play on a case by case basis. If you're on the 12, and only have a few yards to go for a first, you should go. If the first is out of reach, THEN you punt.

    • @fletchermaxwell
      @fletchermaxwell 3 года назад +3

      @@billlupin8345 Agree on it being a case-by-case basis, but there's way more to it than that. It's the likelihood of getting it, considering the situation you'll be in if you get it, and the situation you'll be in if you don't. If you have a 66%, or 2/3 chance of getting it, and you're on the 12, then you're essentially risking three points automatically if you don't get it, plus a good chance of giving up a touchdown, along with the hit to morale and confidence, for a solidly good chance of getting first and 10 around your own 15. Odds are in your favor, like if you roll a die and win so long as it doesn't come up on 5 or 6, you're probably going to win; it's probably going to be 1-4; but even with good odds that's not probably not a bet you want to make.
      I think the problem is that people get attached to the ball when they have it, like it's their ball, and they don't want to give up what belongs to them if they don't have to, but that's an unhelpful way of thinking of it.

If you think the odds of pushing that last yard or so are that low, you should judge accordingly. It can also be demoralizing on the other end.

    I feel like the statistics are right, but it is still dependent on where you are on the field. For example, it would be great to go for it anywhere from the 50 yard line or further, since that's likely where a punt return would be anyway, whereas if you're on the 12 like they were, it's not the best gamble to take unless you have no choice. Just my opinion.

    • @JakeHammerHTX

    Sadly, while this worked out in sitcom land, little Sheldon fails to grasp the effect of selection bias on statistical analysis. While a disproportionate number of 4th down gambles succeed, it is the choice of the coaches in the sample population to only gamble in favourable conditions (i.e., 4th and 1) that skews results toward the positive. If gamble plays were called in a random sampling of all possible 4th down situations, including 4th and 12/long, then the results would be far different.

      @Youtube_Stole_My_Handle_Too 3 года назад +9

      That's not the main takeaway from this. When you're in a disadvantaged position you are better off playing with greater risk - assuming you can afford the possible loss (which is not really an important restriction in this case because it's something as innocent as football) . Most coaches don't follow this reasoning because they are afraid of criticism from their own. They are probably too stupid to explain to their own it doesn't matter with how much one lose. This lack of reasoning infects all parts on society, even in courts. Far too often does the defendant play the innocent card in a murder case even when the available evidence have shown to be more than enough for conviction. In many cases it would be wiser to argue that the victim deserved to die. Our society is sick today because it has unlimited patience with small offences, but no patience with a huge one. Society today is simply too stupid to do simple addition.

It would have been impossible to not to wind up with a cheat sheet with 4th down distance, field position, score, clock... all of it. And that's just the base level, in a real game the coach has to weigh everything with team dynamics: do I trust in my defense more or my offense? How do they compare against today's opponent? Is the weather a factor? What about special teams? You get the idea.

    Just because you statistically have a greater chance of getting a first down isn’t as important as where the line of scrimmage is. So what if you have a greater than 50% chance of getting the first down. If you miss, the other team only has to go 12 yards to score.
