The team is putting up 30 and it's clear and obvious that we are leaving 10+ Points on the the field, easily. Especially wide open plays. It cracks me up because he missed three clearly open deep throws and then makes these tough ones to Aiyuk against pitt, deebo against giants, and jennings against the rams. Lmao makes the difficult ones and misses the easy ones.
It happens to every QB. If it didn't they would all complete nearly 100%. It's amazing how close the completion percentages are for the top half of the league. Herbert is leading at 74.4%. Lamar Jackson is next at 73.3%. Then we have Allen at 72.7%. The next 10 are all 67% or better with Purdy at #13.
I imagine those 70+% completion rates will fall as the season ages. 4 of those 6 QB's are averaging less than a 7.5 ypa with 3 of those being under 7.0 ypa. Tells me they are throwing the ball short which are typically higher % passes.
Right. Usually a higher completion % correlates to a higher yards per attempt, but at the top other than Tua and Herbert it's telling us these quarterbacks are doing much more short passing, and fewer long developing plays.
