If you add the turnovers into his total completions, he really gets the ball to someone else nearly every play

What happened in the 3rd game with Heinicke and 9th game with Ridder?

I’m assume they lost?

The entire league is trending upward. Everybody is a dink dunk machine these days. Most really be completing three passes in a row and still punt on fourth down.

A good reason why yards per attempt is a much better efficiency stat than completion percentage; it actually measures output relative to attempts rather than just one binary outcome.

Defenses have largely shifted to a two high look to prevent deep balls. So naturally offenses dink and dunk. That scheme shift is part of the reason points are down this year

Gaddddddam that’s a lot of turnovers

[–] MoreTrifeLife@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Damn are Ridder's hands coated in oil before every game

Too much popcorn before the game
