Why, you have to ask, would PFF skew the stats in such a way to get Bryce at the top of a list. Honestly, they didn't. That's just how the stats shook out. Probably because Bryce took fewer deep pass opportunities than most other starting QBs, but on the rare opportunities he took, he did quite well.

And that fits in with what an unbiased eye might see out of Bryce and Canales right now... Developing starter QB, developing offensive identity. Which is probably what we have. You and I don't know the calls on each play. We can't see what Bryce sees (or can't see) from the pocket. But a group that watches and grades every play for basically every player looked down at their stat calculations and went: "Would you look at that? Who would have thunk it?"

Just because it doesn't fit into our own narrative doesn't make it false.

Here's the real data.

How is this possible what does this mean for the future is he really able to preform at this high of a level or is this skewed? I want Bryce to be Him but when I watch games he does so many things that gave me screaming at him I don’t see this and I watch the games very thoroughly.

He basically only throws it deep when the WR is high school wide open.

No problem with downplaying this but if he was ranked as the worst deep ball thrower, everyone in here would sing PFF's praises all day, every day.

Well yes, because then their stats and metrics would start to reflect what we saw every Sunday in Autumn for the last 3 years.

Maybe PFF calls it Big Time throws for Bryce because since he is such a little guy, any throw pass the line of scrimmage counts as a Big Time throw...

And it would have been nice if PFF included Big Time Throw attempts/game on that graphic also. Because we all know Bryce attempted like maybe 2 deep passes per game

In other news, Nick Mullens is the most accurate QB in the NFL... he has 100% completion percentage!!!!!

(don't pay attention to the fact that he only attempted 3 passes)
