(S27) PT3 - We're halfway there

[jzajenius36]

So after taking a look at a lot of the individual stats that have been posted by players thus far, I have to say I was surprised at how much parity there was.  I’d never call myself a very active user, but based on previous media articles I’ve written, and my experience in the DSFL, usually there are several standout players in each category when compared to their peers.  Maybe this year is an aberration?  Maybe I just haven’t been paying attention?  Or maybe I just don’t know how to read stats?  But that’s my glaring takeaway after first glance.

However, even I have to acknowledge that one defensive player in particular has at least the potential to separate himself from the pack.  That’s Chicago Butchers Linebacker Juan Domine.  This player is familiar to me as I was in the DSFL at the same time as him – watching him absolutely eat offenses alive.  While he’s not asserting himself in a leader in any one stat, his compilation of contributions is very impressive.  (th in the league in sacks with 8, tied 7th in the league with interceptions with 3, tied 11th in the league with 6 TFLs, and in the top-25 for tackles.  If you add up TFL/INT/Sacks, only one other player can boast a total of 17, while only a few manage to get to 15 or 16 – none of whom have even 1 interception to their name.  Domine is a special build, and he’ll be causing havoc for a long time, even if he doesn’t receive the defensive player of the year away this year.
