JP51 Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Dont try to disrupt outsiders opinions with facts... LOL how dare you 😆🤣 Quote
Don Otreply Posted July 30 Posted July 30 One could assume those things to be the case, I do though suspect that most teams have little interest in going through that type of process with any player, Quote
Lost Posted July 30 Posted July 30 I knew we shoulda picked up that Browning guy in 2018 instead this Josh Allen poser.... Quote
MJS Posted July 30 Posted July 30 10 minutes ago, Big Turk said: 200 attempts does not tell you how many of those attempts went more than 10 yards. I don't know how to look that up, but we aren't talking about deep balls which are 20+ air yards. A significant number of any QB's throws is going to be 10+ yards. I looked at a few of his games and he had 7 to 12 attempts each game of 10+ yards down the field. He started 11 games last year, so we are looking at probably 80 to over 100 attempts. A sample size of 30 or higher is sufficient to draw conclusions. Quote

I know the D kept them in it for some of them but probably that would be at least half of them... Edited July 30 by Big Turk Quote

It's not like the Jets were getting blown out every week, and how often do you think teams play their backup defenses? At most, they take out one or two players unless it is an extreme blowout. Even then, it is only for a quarter, if that. And soft coverages will be preventing 10+ yard throws, not aiding them. Quote

Nah, soft coverages are giving up 10 yard throws to prevent 20-30+ yard throws. especially between the 20s. 1 Quote
Einstein Posted July 30 Posted July 30 3 hours ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Stats are funny. Allen and Mahomes sandwiched by Zack Wilson and Jake Browning. Zach is a better player than he gets credit for (watch how people react to this post). I wrote earlier in the offseason that i’d take Zach Wilson as Allen’s backup right now, and I stand by it. He has athleticism. He has arm talent. And he was surrounded by absolute trash in NJ. Does he have some issues? Sure does. But some of them can be fixed. And if we fix them, he becomes a perfect Allen backup with that athleticism and arm talent. Tell me this doesn’t remind me you of 2018 Josh Allen: 1 1 Quote

Would be curious how this changes if the bar is moved to what the NFL considers a "long pass" (20+ yards from the LOS) Quote

BananaB Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Wonder who has the most attempts over 10 yards, bet Josh is at the top. Mahomes probably dead last Quote
