I'm a 28 year old Electrical Engineer from the Wichita area, where I live with my wife and dog. I'm an avid mountain bike rider, guitar player, and a huge sports fan. I love beer, and am quite opinionated on the subject...so chances are, you're wrong. =)
I'm very critical on formations and formational responsibilities in all sports, but I find myself sucked into NFL defensive analysis. My football playing days were short, due to running and soccer, of which I played through college competitively, but I was a defensive back in a little town in Southeast KS. I started picking up formation analysis back in high school through youth football and soccer coaching, and it stuck.
I've been a Chiefs fan all my life, with my first game being the October 7th, 1991 MNF game where we crushed the Bills behind Okoye, Harvey Williams, and DT. That was also one of the first nights I remember not sleeping all night, because I was so amped from being in that stadium as loud as it was.
I've been doing defensive "grading" on AP for a couple years now, so take a look and let me know what you think!
