Noticeably less efficient the further from the LOS or outside of the numbers the target gets.

Which makes sense, those are more difficult throws. I guess my point is that Alabama isn't running some offense that put Jones in a position to appear any more NFL ready than the other prospects. The only thing he has over the other quarterbacks is the perceived notion that he's a football genius. If you don't feel that way, theres no way you can have him ranked above the other quarterbacks in this draft.

Much more efficient deep. You'd like to see a bit better of a hit rate in the middle of the field short of the sticks. Tbf to Jones, much smaller sample size. Mostly tho, it just helps add context to what Jones is actually asked to do on Alabama's system

No PFF is strait garbage with these and has always been. Doesn't matter if it's Mac Jones, Justin Fields ect...they throw out misleading statistics all the time.

Ok, I get what he's saying. Though I will say that this isn't a new thing. Tons of QBs have come from major programs only to flop, including just recently from Alabama. And many QBs that have excelled have come from smaller schools. I don't know if it really makes much of a difference and even if it did, there's not going to be a huge difference between OSU and Alabama in that regard. Obviously BYU and NDSU are different.

His point being that because that particular stat makes Jones look less than, you provide a negative take. If that metric was for, say, Fields or Lance you wouldn't have posted.

It also helps explain how the avg TtT numbers aren't necessarily reflective of slower processing, but of the type of offense the QBs are being asked to run.

Looks like our offense... using those RAC monsters.

Been saying this for weeks lol. Same thing with completion percentage...no s**t a dude has a high comp % when a 3rd of his passes are at the LOS. Wild.

It was the same exact thing with Tua...it's what Bama does the past 5 yrs or so...spread our the field find the QB easy looks and let them out talent you. That's not gonna roll in the NFL when everyone is talented. Tua learned that one.
