Salk starts the show talking about the randomness in baseball, including Ty France winning AL Player of the Week this week with the Twins. After that, they replay their interview with Kevin Cole to get a unique perspective on approaching the NFL Draft. Then, Salk sounds off on the idea of the Seahawks taking a wide receiver with the 18th overall pick.
Salk takes us through three of the biggest pleasant surprises for the Mariners so far this season. Then, Kevin Cole of Unexpected Points breaks down how he determines poistional value for the NFL draft and whether teams are applying these analytics or not.
Kevin Cole joined the show to break down his offseason Improvement Index, a data-driven tool used to evaluate how NFL rosters have improved (or declined) year-over-year. His work at UnexpectedPoints.com has become must-read material for analytically-minded fans, bettors, and even NFL front office staff. Here are the key insights from our conversation: What is Unexpected Points? Kevin describes the site as catering to the "nerdy, numberier football fan." His content draws from past experience at PFF and DFS sites like RotoGrinders, focusing on analytics that aren't always directly tied to betting or fantasy, but absolutely inform both. In-season, he does deep game reviews and quarterback analysis. In the offseason, he shifts toward roster value, draft strategy, and team improvement projections. How the Improvement Index Works Core concept: The Index projects a team's upcoming season based on the prior year's roster, then adjusts for offseason changes using a plus-minus metric similar to the NBA. Player value is measured using EPA-based on/off-field impact, smoothed through clustering of similar players. Participation data (i.e., snap counts) is used to weight contributions, with additional considerations for injury risk, coordinator changes, and scheme tendencies. Point differential: Each team has a point differential in the index. A +43 improvement doesn't mean the Patriots will score 43 more points. It means their projected point differential is 43 points better than if they had kept their 2024 roster intact. That's worth about 1.3 wins this year. Roster Modeling Nuance Rotational players are harder to model, so Kevin smooths out usage based on prior snaps and coaching history. Fullbacks, centers, and low-snap positions get context-specific adjustments depending on scheme and replaceability. Coaching changes don't radically shift the projection unless it's a QB or team-level philosophy shift. Team-Level Highlights Patriots: The biggest gainers, with upside tied to improved depth and variance at QB. Diggs only ranks as their 5th most valuable addition. Bears: Interior OL upgrades (Jackson, Dolman) don't rate as highly, but the total picture (especially adding Joe Thuney) is strong. Panthers: Ranked 3rd in improvement. Key reason? They didn't lose much valuable talent, and the draft well based on surplus value. Browns: Gained ~5 points mostly from marginal improvements at QB (Pickett vs. projected backups). Still volatile due to QB uncertainty. Raiders: Geno Smith is a clear upgrade at QB, but the rest of the roster is roughly flat. Some natural regression expected after underperforming last year. 49ers: Losses overhyped due to player reputation rather than projected value. Comp picks help long-term roster strength. Jets: Show significant drop-off. Fields isn't rated as an upgrade over Rodgers, and they lost valuable supporting pieces like Davante Adams. Seahawks: Metcalf loss hurts more than Kupp helps. Darnold is a mid-tier projection (QB18–25 range), though he did flash top-5 efficiency last year. Eagles/Chiefs: Bottom tier in improvement, largely due to difficulty sustaining elite rosters. Kevin notes he had Ravens and Bills power-rated higher than the Chiefs pre-Super Bowl. Undervalued Teams? Colts: Slightly improved, with potential upside from Anthony Richardson or even Daniel Jones (yes, really). Browns: Again undervalued in the betting market due to lingering QB pessimism, despite a strong supporting cast. What's Next from Kevin? Expect more work pre-draft and post-draft: Updated Improvement Index “Analytical big board” using surplus draft value Post-draft evaluations factoring positional value, trade value, and reach vs. value metrics

Oh Come, All Ye Goosebuddies! Your hosts Chad Quandt, Paul Ritchey, and Kevin Cole revisit two 90s cartoon holiday episodes. First we check out ABC's Recess's politically correct 'Yes, Mikey, Santa Does Shave' guest starring James Earl Jones and Michael McKean in which Chad's cartoon proxy Mikey challenges 3rd Street to prove Santa is real. We then shift to the more subversive with Nickelodeon's Rocko's Modern Life's holiday episode 'Can't Squeeze Cheer From a Cheese Log!' otherwise known as Rocko's Modern Christmas. Rocko's hoping friends come by for the holidays, including some mysterious elves next door. Is Santa dead? Are Elves keeping the legend alive like the Bat Family does in Batman's absence? Unsure, but a cloud poops snow and Mr. Bigfoot gets capped in the knee. Pretty good. We also talk about Sonic the Hedgehog canon and Chad's love for the female southern brawler archetype.

RJ Bell, Steve Fezzik, Scott Seidenberg and Mackenzie Rivers talk NFL recap for Week 14. The guys also discuss some teams for NFL Week 15. Quote Analysis RJ Bell (0:06-0:17) "How does it feel with one of those, I think they call them rocking chair winners on Cincinnati?" Bell's facetious tone critiques the comfortable victory narrative. He questions the ease of Cincinnati's win, emphasizing the dynamic nature of games and betting outcomes. Mackenzie Rivers (0:52-0:56) "The fourth-quarter win share was 69% for the Bengals. So they should have won." This calculation contextualizes the Bengals' performance, showing that their win was expected statistically, even though the margin was contested. Steve Fezzik (1:53-2:16) "Kirk Cousins isn't as bad as we thought. Almost 500 yards of offense; Minnesota torches Atlanta's defense." Fezzik credits Cousins for outperforming expectations and highlights Minnesota's offensive prowess against Atlanta's struggling defense. Mackenzie Rivers (4:26-4:39) "PFF had Vikings winning by 13, Kevin Cole had Falcons edging by a point, 27-26." Contrasting predictions reflect the variance in analytical models and how games can diverge from expectations. RJ Bell (28:29-29:05) "The 49ers should have won 5.6 more games since 2018 based on win-share data." Bell underscores San Francisco's inefficiencies in converting opportunities, attributing losses to conservatism or execution issues. Player Statistics and Analysis Kirk Cousins (Minnesota Vikings): 344 passing yards and a strong game, torching Atlanta's defense, showcasing his capability in high-pressure scenarios. Sam Darnold (Minnesota Vikings): Critically discussed for underthrown passes. The strategy appears deliberate, exploiting Atlanta's secondary weaknesses. Jalen Hurts (Philadelphia Eagles): Leads the NFL with 13 rushing touchdowns, tying with Derrick Henry, underscoring his dual-threat capability. Derrick Henry (Tennessee Titans): With 1,400 rushing yards and ranked second in the league, his sustained performance is impressive despite heavy usage. Zach Charbonnet (Seattle Seahawks): Rushed for 134 yards against Arizona, stepping up in Kenneth Walker's absence. Team Statistics and Insights Minnesota Vikings: Domination over Atlanta with an 8-first-down advantage and a net yards-per-play delta of +4.7, highlighting offensive efficiency. Pittsburgh Steelers: Defense shines, limiting opponents while being underestimated as AFC contenders. Predicted to upset Kansas City in Week 17. San Francisco 49ers: Statistically dominant but faltering in close games; coaching conservatism impacts their win-share negatively. Seattle Seahawks: Improved defense after midseason adjustments, shutting down opponents post-bye week. Rams vs. Bills: A high-scoring game with 12 combined touchdowns and no turnovers. Bills edged out efficiency metrics, but Rams secured a significant win share. Structure and Flow This transcript flows chronologically through NFL Week 14 games and then transitions into predictions and bets for Week 15. Discussions combine analytics, betting narratives, and player/team evaluations, providing a comprehensive view of the NFL landscape. Conclusion The speakers use analytics and personal insights to analyze the outcomes and implications of Week 14 games. They identify potential mismatches, highlight underperforming players, and predict upsets for Week 15. Minnesota and San Francisco stood out statistically, while Pittsburgh's defensive prowess earned respect. The conversation is both a reflection on lessons from Week 14 and a strategic look at Week 15, emphasizing the importance of preparation in football and betting alike.

Holy hells, Goosebuddies. This episode marks our 10th Anniversary of the podcast. We started in 2014 with a mission to cover the works of R. L. Stine and we still have mountains of pulp to go through. But in honor of the celebration we take a look back at the story that started it all: Welcome to Dead House! Your hosts Chad Quandt, Paul Ritchey, and Kevin Cole re-review this 1992 book about a sort of terrifying time share. Then we hop around the timeline and inspect 2014 and the modern year to see how this franchise has changed with the world and us. And we celebrate Kevin getting to read this book for the first time! We also talk booby traps and the laws concerning them. Thank you all for an incredible decade of this show. Your continued love and support keeps us going and it's meant a lot to have this audio cabin void to sneak away to and talk about 90s kids horror. Enjoy the episode! Book Discussion starts at 26:45 Off-Topics Include: 2014 Paul, Our Ideal Ghost House Features, 1992, Goosebuds: Origins You can support Goosebuds, get access to bonus episodes, join our secret Discord, and more at patreon.com/goosebuds Dress your skeleton with Goosebuds apparel at goosebuds.store Email: goosebuds@gmail.com Twitter: @GoosebudsPod Edited by Kevin Cole (@RealKevinCole) Music by Seth Earnest (sethearnest.net)
It's time to morph into a shark! But sadly we're not reading Animophs and fighting an alien resistance, we're a dumb kid trespassing into an ancient temple and cursed by a vague monk! Your hosts Chad Quandt, Paul Ritchey, and Kevin Cole read through the 80s Choose Your Own Adventure book: You Are A Shark by Edward Packard. Despite the direct title, it's really hard for us to get the animal form we want and really run through the fauna of the world. Will we get to punch out that smug mystic cursing us? Or will we die to humans? This is one of the most brutal CYOA stories, evoking the infamous Back to Pass episode. Adventure starts at 12:23 Off-Topics: Trouble is a fake idea, the idea of sharks
Do you know what it's like to be considered a beast by your classmates? To be so big but also good at computers? A teenage Hank McCoy? At least one of hosts does and this episode hits hard. Your hosts Chad Quandt, Paul Ritchey, and Kevin Cole cover R.L. Stine's Goosebumps Horrorland book My Friends Call Me Monster. This is a weird story about monster closets and egg-based horror. Not recommended for vegans! Book discussion and banter are as inseparable from each other as the briar and the rose.

Protagonists Abby and Peter stay with their uncle who has a dark secret: a real tasty stockpile of mummies to eat up. Weird! And the adventure continues into the ongoing Horrorland saga. Is horror Byron an ally? Or is he tracking them with GPS chips? Enjoy the episode! Book discussion starts at 12:15 OFF TOPICS: Kaiju No. 8, Smart Guys, TNT Amusements Inc.
