How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

Is this for the whole season or just after his benching?

Wasn't specified by the OP. Got the original tweet screen capped in the link above for what they had posted.

a little context would help if you are going to keep posting that

 

I thought that the one other time I posted it explained it clearly and that the labels would help fill in any blanks (outside of exacts regarding the scope of the sample, of course). What part is giving you trouble?

That's crazy impressive if it's for the season.  I feel like it post benching which is still impressive.  Those first couple games can really swing things.  I'm eager to see how the offense looks this season in year 2 of DC's offense, same OL, and a new weapon in TMac.

It's a really just a weird anomaly of a stat IMO 

For example, Bryce essentially had the worst on target % in the NFL last year.   That stat wouldn't lead you to believe that was also true.

He throws shorter than almost the entire league on average.   He naturally plays a more risk adverse brand of football.  So despite bringing heaviest % of off target throws to anyone on that graph.....they aren't all that aggressive and he is missing into the sideline for example often, thus....aren't deemed "turnover worthy".  Which is fine.  It's smart football for us.  But it's also why the ceiling of everything is just so low.

Got to pick up little dude from school in a minute, but once I get back if I have time I'll see if I can figure out which via the data points. I was leaning towards post-benching but I figured that'd be called out somewhere if so.

I think you are looking at the season and that stat has to be post benching. His first few games can change the averages by quite a bit as they were awful vs decent after the benching. Season totals will paint a bleak picture while game by game and year end trends can give us some hope. Throw in year 2 of the same offense, same OL, plus TMac and we should expect some improvements overall.

Is this the entire season?

Is this completions?

What defines big time throws?

 

I mean it's a pretty arbitrary and meaningless "stat" in the grand scheme of things

93% of his pass attempts last year are post benching to final game (starting with Denver).

It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is

Quote

In its simplest terms, a big-time throw is on the highest end of both difficulty and value. While the value is easy to see statistically, the difficulty has more to do with passes that have a lower completion percentage the further the ball is thrown down the field. Therefore, the big-time throw is best described as a pass with excellent ball location and timing, generally thrown further down the field and/or into a tighter window.

my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.

Are you trying to have a good faith conversation or are you just being dismissive?

More than willing to explore further if the former, but from your quip at the end there it seems like the latter.

I don't think that you'd just dismiss something because it doesn't support your argument, but just in case lmk pls kthx

and yet you didnt answer one of those questions

The "big time throw" stat just seems like something made up from PFF

Based on their definition, basically 90% of well placed balls to Adam Theilen would count as a big time throws.  Because all those are tight windows.  That’s where I think the definition is muddy in terms of what they do and don’t count.   Probably would help figure it out if we had a game and the number of throws they award him to get an idea of what does and doesn’t count 
 

a pass with high difficulty and value, often characterized by excellent ball location and timing, typically thrown further downfield or into a tighter window

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
