  1. New ownership played into that
  2. Weren’t the Bills near top of the league in 3rd and 8+ last season?
  3. Allen is at least attempting to be a quarterback. Taylor never did.
  4. First off completion% isn't really related to QB accuracy. It's more of a general offensive metric that's as dependent on things like system and pass catchers as it is on how accurately the QB delivers the ball. It just gets applied to quarterbacks. Second there are a bunch of examples of QBs raising their comp% over the course of their careers, especially as it relates to their early seasons vs as they mature, get a better feel for the game, etc. Eli Manning was a 55.5% thrower his first 3 years in the league and finished his career a 60% guy. Matt Ryan's first 3 years put him at 60.6% and he ended up a career 65.4% thrower. Brees the accuracy dude was 61.3% through three years and now sits at a ridiculous 67.6% career completions. Did the game 'slow down' for them (and many other quarterbacks whose comp% shows similar trajectory as they age?) and allow them to complete a higher percentage of passes? Yes. Did an influx of offensive talent at receiver tend to raise completion% as they were picked up in draft/FA? Yes. Does an improved offensive line correlate to a higher comp% (yes), or a system (existing or implemented later) that features a pass catching RB mean that QB will tend to have a higher comp%? (again yes). Saying QBs don't improve their completion percentage over time is wrong. Acting like comp% is a measure of accuracy is dumb.
  5. Agree w all of this except Wilson imo is closer to the Brady/Brees group wrt throwing...he's for the most part a one platform guy. His legs are tree trunks so he gets a ton of power but still mostly that open shoulder overhand delivery. Freaky arms Mahomes, Rodgers, in terms of being able to deliver accurately from all angles Allen's throwing is closer to them but clearly still needs work on his base. The two throws to Beasley vs Dallas and Baltimore are those kinds of deliveries.
  6. There are so many QBs who 'improve their accuracy' lol as measure by comp% The people stuck on 60% like it isn't some completely arbitrary benchmark are ridiculous
  7. Love me some Cam but nah
  8. Shhh you can't 'learn' accuracy, it comes and goes as it pleases
  9. iirc these were very popular when i was in school
  10. It came from the PFF write up on the Bills/Steelers game.
  11. let me guess he didn't complete it
  12. I think their raking of White is enough to disregard them for the most part. I see no justification for that other than trolling.
  13. So...wouldn't that suggest their data or their ability to synthesize is at least open to debate?
  14. What data did they have to suggest that Duck Hodges was the better QB?
  15. not everyone has a spoiler on their honda ok guy
  16. literally anything this guy says^
  17. good luck go get em
  18. Sorry. I should have added the word ‘nearly’ for The Smartest Yet Most Unable to Read Between the Lines Man in the Room.
  19. Like I said, I’m ready to be lectured on how there’s no racism in today’s society by random internet poster. Gonna have to minus a couple points for your inability to think up a synonym for ’capable’, though.
  20. I won’t fault the smartest guy in the room for not understanding the difference between socialism and communism! I’m here to learn!
