I look at things in more practical and human nature manner. Not saying they will get the job but the push is always there and going to be there and always has been. Every backup QB wants to start and they are going to push the starting QB. My whole thing started when mistertim said TH is not going to push Wentz. I will warm up to him after I see how he does this year. I am not really high on Wentz like some of you are. Slinging it dangerously and sure the INT are going to be more like Brett but he is after all a risk taker and wants to make something out of each pass play.īy the way, didn't Wentz have better players around him then TH did last year? But he got only two more wins than TH did who played one less game too.
At the end of the day the W is the only stat everyone is going to be looking at with Wentz. That is not a whole lot of difference in my book. His team won 2 more games than TH did last year. He is not day and night different than TH. The idea that Wentz is this superstar that we got is not true. Sure some stats shows TH better in some area and Wentz in some. I am pretty sure I didn't say exactly the same stats. But, that's not actually how the math works. So you say "only playing one fewer game" as though it makes this more impressive. If you play one less game, you have less attempts and less completion. I want to pick on you for one thing though, the fact Taylor played one fewer game does not in any way effect completion percentage, because the formula is completion/attempts. But every single other statistic is in Wentz's favor. So, statistically, yeah, Wentz has a lower completion percentage. I refuse to look at PFF grades because they are garbage and rely not only on statistics but on the way analysts grade plays. TD% - Percentage of throws which result in a TDĪdjusted Yards per Attempt: (this takes into account TDs and INTsĮSPN's QBR (I'm not getting into a QBR debate) (there is a non-statistical argument to be made as well, but let's just stick with the math) But that really just tells part of the story, statistically speaking. It is undeniable TH had a higher completion percentage than Wentz. But I need something from Marvel that is Thor's kryptonite So I can weave that into my analysis.
All of the stats they have tried to put together to measure coaching are hysterically bad and just there to get on radio shows and gum flap about how smart they are.Īnd, he doesn't work for PFF, but Thor Nystrom is a complete and total fool who I will continue to bring up as the example of the analytics people who think they know stuff, don't really know anything, and are insanely arrogant about it. Each of the different PFF personalities has different perspectives, so take each for what they are worth. When they bring "analysis" into grades, they're all over the map and the grades are meaningless and useless. Pick your favorite advanced stat that is actually a stat. When they stick to football advanced stats, that's good.
We've been through this, but to summarize my position: There was a PFF dude on Galdi's podcast recently who was actually somewhat high on Wentz. I recall years ago lol some would cite PFF to back Haskins potential and some would use a different PFF personality to trash Haskins' potential. In fairness to them, different people at PFF have different opinions especially about QBs. The numbers I posted about Wentz and the deep ball are from PFF which are good. I think with them they oddly got caught up in the national hate narrative about Wentz even though they are supposed to be all about the numbers.
Zcommander upgrade#
If Wentz is so awful and he's still a signficant upgrade over Heinicke - than how bad do they think Heinicke actually is - beyond awful? As tough as some of the PFF personalities have been on Wentz, they also all said he's a "significant" upgrade over Heinicke.
