Considering that I tend to make only the most general of conclusions from stats and absolutely despise stat whores who don't know what the **** inferential statistics is, I find the accusation extremely insulting.
I prefer empirical evidence, such as the following from this linky:
Film analysis and breakdown of Willie Smith's performance against Jason Pierre-Paul and Jared Allen. - Hogs Haven
Willie Smith had 38 "good plays" and 24 "bad plays" coming into this game according to this guy.
