How Big Data Could Change Football Forever  From
the sabermetrics used in baseball to the NBA's motion-tracking
cameras, innovation abounds in the world of sports. Football is
no stranger to these developments, and there's one little-known
company that might just change the game forever.  I'm talking
about Competitive Sports Analysis, or CSA for short. I was given
an exclusive look at the Atlanta-based company, which uses "Big
Data" to analyze sports for everyone from head coaches to
fantasy players.   A tool for any fantasy owner  CSA's flagship
products are its scoutPRO Fantasy Football and Fantasy Baseball
editions, both of which are part of Gannett's (NYSE: GCI  )  USA
Today Sports Media Group. Each allows users to analyze fantasy
sports from an objective and subjective standpoint, combining
commonly used stats with expert opinions. I was given access to
a demo version of scoutPRO Fantasy Football for Weeks 16 and 17
of this year's NFL season.  The tools work as add-ons to any
pre-existing fantasy service
