Winning encompasses high level stats like wins, losses, and ties, in addition to advanced metrics like Win Probability Added. QBs that make big plays in critical moments (think Joe Burrow in his 2021 Super Bowl run) tend to have produce the most WPA
Tua in the top 10, suck it!
Also remarkable in a way is how Burrow is #2, but also the only QB in the top 10 with a losing record.
Top 10 in EPA/DB (min. 300 attempts)
Tua, Goff, Baker, and Josh to an extent are all more reliant on YAC. Purdy, Lamar, and Love seem to be the ones airing it out the most.
Feels like Bengals aren't in a terrible spot to make the playoffs all things considered. Looks like they do poorly in multi way tiebreaks but well against the broncos if they beat him.
Big problem if the chiefs are testing their starters the last week
YAC stats fail to convey QB contribution. Good QBs get better YAC from their receivers, bad QBs don't.
Of course good OCs and solid rushing Y/att have a lot to do with it as well.
who's ready to have Penix shoved down their throat all day?
I hope the Falcons don’t just run it down the Giants’s throat, so we get some Penix action.
FALCONS wearing the absolutely FIRE black shirts and red hat throwbacks.
Penix will be fully engorged.
Penix spilling his seed on the ground.
Sinner!!!
lol
Do they keep stats on stupid, completely unnecessary unsportsmanlike penalties? If so, Jameson Williams has to be among the league leaders.
SAQUON
What happened to Younghoe Koo?
Browns stay the Browns
wtf Campbell kicking a FG on 4th and 2?
Welp Eagles games almost over
Rudolph (very Christmassy) threw it as high as he could.
Low Joe!!! Incredible!
