Warren Sharp's 2016 Football Preview by Warren Sharp

by Warren Sharp

Innovative and visually stunning. Often these are diametric opposites. The most innovative research is typically found in black and white text of medical journals or scientific white papers. The visually stunning material is usually thin and shallow, but does look good. Warren Sharp’s 150-page full color preview combines both innovative, next level thinking with a massive revolution in presentation and reader interface. This magazine breaks down the teams into their parts, so readers can understand elementally how they are built, how they function, and why they succeed or fail. Once established, it shifts into advanced metrics and analytics from the granular level of player efficiency and performance to how those players fit into their team (through roster construction, cap space & offseason player acquisition), 2016 schedule preview, forecast production, predictions and the most visually stunning presentation of information that a season preview magazine has ever attempted to include.

While in theory all of that information sounds great, without proper presentation, it is hard to digest. That is why Warren spent the same amount of focus on presentation. In particular, this magazine is focused for "visual learners". The ability for the public to consume and "value" statistics is diminished by lack of context as well as the age in which we live. In the newspaper era (from a sports perspective) the only option was targeting "reading/writing learners". Statistics, box scores and standings displayed in columns in a table. Unfortunately, for most sites, that has not changed very much. Most every website and publication displays statistics in black and white table format.
