As we get into the offseason, I wanted to stay posting some more of these charts to look at some of the QB options this offseason.
While is TWT is a little higher than you’d want, Mac Jones was second best in the league in terms of catchable passes.
I know Pete smith has thrown around Geno as a QB he’d like to chase as well. While in skeptical, Geno having a lower Turnover worthy throw rate than his interception percentage (looks like maybe 3.2 vs 3.8 respectively) makes me wonder if there could be some “bad luck” there that could point to Geno being capable of better play than we saw
Normally the bottom left of a chart is “lowest” at these metrics not “highest”
It’s really unfortunate that his uncanny accuracy in college didn’t really translate to the NFL.
Not saying it can’t happen still. But man it’s ugly early.
But but but he’s Legendary!
He’s so bad.
While this looks bad, there is the context that nearly 60% of his throws came on 3rd & long. Rees did NOT take care of his rookie QB.
We almost exclusively threw in obvious passing situations under Rees and not on early downs when it would have been ambiguous. Which was a huge problem because that was when we had zero run game, so running virtually every first down for 2 yards or less just put every pass play in an obvious pass situation with BAD OTs.
That’s not saying he was good, just not as bad as the stats say because the play calling was awful. Context is key with any stat.
At this point I’m all for giving Deshaun another shot. He’s been the best QB we’ve had this century and we’re paying him anyway. I don’t care about the gossip.
Advanced stats fucking hate Shedeur lol. Like, he wasn’t good, but you’d think he was actively throwing the ball backwards into his own end zone every play the way these graphs look
Not to say these “Shedeur is bad” stats don’t matter, but to me they are kind of hollow stats given the absolute shit show of an offense he was playing in. Definitely not saying we should be 100% committed to him, but it’s disingenuous to write him off completely based on PFF and advanced analytics.
If we have a chance to draft a QB we love, we should. If not, I’m open to giving him a chance again next year.
Sanders is straight booty.
Hahahaha holy shit
Where is Gabriel?
Biggest caveat here being our offense as a whole was/is putrid.
The eye test tells me there is some talent in there to unlock. Will it be enough to be a QB1 in the NFL? Idk.
Watson will probably start the year. I don’t think any qb help will be coming in.
I want to reevaluate with a new coach and a buffed OL. I wouldn’t mind bringing in competition or giving Gabriel another shot too. I don’t think that offense was doing anything regardless of who was at QB.
Im confused by this data. How many of these are throw aways. I noticed it said ATTEMPTS.
6% int worthy throw rate but a massive 40% of the balls are uncatchable?
Sanders has like a 55% completion rating.
Leaving 45% to be the entirety of the non completions. (Or inverse)
Should “uncatchable rate” and inverse completion rating be that close?
I refuse to believe
Yeah but if you don’t count any of those throws, he’s great!
bUt ThE eYe TeSt ThOuGh.
Dude was no better than Dillon Gabriel…in fact, he was statistically worse in almost every measurable category…and DG was absolutely awful to watch.
For the love of God I hope whatever head coach comes in here has a better “eye test” than the SheFanclub and Andrew Berry finds a way to get something better on the roster…I mean statistically that shouldn’t even be hard to do.

That doesn’t seem ideal but idk

Seems less than ideal to have this combo of stats
QB1 💪
