Bill Belichick

The foes of statistical analysis may have a new spokesman, one who seemingly has tons of credibility in the nerd world, Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.

Via NESN.com:

“Everybody can’t have high stats every week,” he told the Web site. “It’s impossible. We can always pick out somebody and say, ‘What happened to them?’”

The coach made it clear that nobody will ever catch him evaluating his players based on their single-game stats.

“Stats are for losers,” Belichick said. “The final score is for winners.”
