TPS Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 While injuries are a part of football, I thought I'd take a quick look at Fitz's stats and see if there was any difference as some key WRs went down--Parrish and Evans. Obviously I am ignoring all other factors. Parrish went down toward the end of the Chicago game, so I inlcude him up to that point; Evans went down early in the Cleveland game, so I exclude him from that game; the results: 6 games with Parrish and Evans: total average O=348; gross pass yds=250 4 games w/out Parrish: total O=326; gross pass=221 3 games w/out Parrish and Evans: total O=325; gross pass=205 With Parrish gone, the average total offense fell 22 yards/game and Fitz's pass yards fell 29yds/game. After Evans went out, the total offense average was unchanged, but Fitz's pass yards fell another 16yds/game. If I were to draw any conclusion from these data, I would say Parrish was a key contributor to Fitz's success. My overall belief is, if you keep the same WR group (along w/ Easely), add a TE and RT, then the Bills' have a playoff caliber offense with Fitzpatrick at the helm.

DreReed83 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I also read somewhere that he passes for an average of 360 yds when he eats french toast and scrambled eggs in the morning of gameday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
