Thanks that’s some numbers, but knowing th numbers for the whole game often
can be different. I would hope they are measuring for the whole game and giving the numbers to the players, so they can learn from them. If they aren’t doing it, put a trained student or walk on, on it. Three categories, definitely open, definitely not open, covered closely but open.
By the way, you can do the same with turnovers, what many don’t realize is turnovers are often caused by players not going to the open passing lane. Just like a QB needs open receivers to complete passes. Many emphasize the passer when he only had bad options due to receivers not getting open, so they force it because it’s the best option they have.
