While I understand your point, there is still validity to passing yards having worth...sure Brady threw for 500 yards and still lost...sure it is not the end all be all- but they were always in the game and able to come back from just about any deficit (until the clock ran out of course).
Not having a QB that can produce yards means it is extremely difficult to come back when losing, because you need to pass and passing yards can’t be counted on...That’s why Tyrod is frustrating to no end imo- when we were losing it felt like the game was over....the Jags game felt like it was 35-3 when it was only 10-3.
