I can't tell if this is a serious comment or not.

I didn't really read the academic paper or the FO analysis
I’m sure there’s a well-reasoned and well-researched argument or two in there. My gut tells me that you get diminishing returns with more passing but I’m sure they’ve taken that into account.
I just think the juxtaposition of tweed-wearing academics and the “Madden mentality” is funny.
