@AmericanAir what a trash experience. Take off and then make us circle Philadelphia for hours then land us back in Philly only only to cancel our flight to seatlle. What a joke

Such a good way to get started!

what a flex
In response to @benbbaldwin 's question about whether the 20 is considered the RedZone, I suggested looking at the true position of the ball. In an effort to flex my access to tracking data💪, here is a histogram of the ball location for all plays "on the opp 20" 2017 - present.
