Is there a statistic that measures a QB's correct read percentage?

Get back on your main account

Just the one account. Way back to CBMB days. Actually I've noticed that you regurgitate the same information over and over and over and over and over. I noticed it all by myself. I'm super observative like that.

Gotcha.

Yes, others agree with me.

Sorry for talking football on a football forum.

You're more than welcome to join grimson and HHM to go talk about trump on the other boards.

It's not the talking football that's the problem, it's that you're wrong so often. If you could be right more often than would really help your reputation here. Goals to strive for.

How am I wrong?

Because someone made a statement that is completely false, and I pointed it out?

I'm glad to see, however, that my posts allow you to come out of the woodwork and post.

Glad to see I have this effect on you, buddy.

Guy posts that mitch doesn't throw downfield.

I post stats to prove he does.

Now I'm in the wrong because I'm trying to hamper the meatball narratives going around here.

Gotcha.

Next time I should just allow everyone to post whatever trash comes to mind.

Isn't the point of a message board to have a discussion?

Pat Mahomes threw the ball 21+ yards 13.96% of the time. In 2018, you know, his MVP year.

Mitch Trubisky threw the ball 21+ yards 14.7% of the time. In 2018.

But yet all he does is check the ball down.

It's the system. Buddy.

Stop with the 20+ yd bullshit. Your argument is laughable.

Mitch was one of the worst QB in the league last year throwing the ball downfield. That is a fact and not even arguable.

That wasn't even where this all started.

You said he checks it down, and doesn't throw it downfield. Not that he's good at it.

The metric for big plays on passes is 21+ yards. It's that way nearly everywhere.

Yes, I already told you mitch sucked in 2019.

In 2018 he threw the ball "downfield" more than pat mahomes.

The issue is he didn't throw it accurately. This has never been up for debate.

All I provided you were facts as to why your statement was wrong, which it was.

The only one posting thrash is you. You are standing on your soapbox based on one stat that accounted for 14% of his throws, 2 years ago.

I show you stats from last your showing he was one of the worst QB in the league throwing downfield, yet you completely ignore them.

This offense in 2019 had a lot of issues outside of Mitch that contributed to why they weren't more aggressive.

None of that takes away from the fact that when they were clicking in 2018, Mitch was more aggressive than the wide majority of NFL QB's, and threw the ball downfield more often than the majority of NFL QB's.

He's played in this scheme 2 years.

One of them he threw downfield more often than nearly all of the QB's in the league. So yea....you kinda said he didn't.

Once again, last year, the reason we didn't throw deep had a lot to do with players not named mitch trubisky.

If you want me to explain how football works to you I'm more than happy.

Today I learned:

Mitch checks it down nonstop, but somehow throws downfield more often than pat mahomes, who never checks it down.

Weird.

No you are the ONLY one talking about 2 years ago. 2 fucking years ago!

So a 10-19 yrd pass isn’t throwing DOWNFIELD??? Only 20+ TD passes count in your mind as throwing downfield.

Throwing “deep” is different then throwing “downfield”.

Your WHOLE argument is passes from 2 years ago. You need to stop.

I’m done.

Mitch 2018 was a good QB.

Mitch 2019 was a horrible QB.

It's as simple as that.

Yes, two years ago when the offense actually worked.

You're acting like I'm talking about a decade ago.

You do realize the ENTIRE team had a down year last year, not just mitch.

I'm sorry for using stats that show mitch in a good light, next time I'll make sure to only use the ones that spin a negative narrative towards him.

BTW, that 10-19 stat, I already addressed it.

His IAY to the stick was a tenth lower than mahomes.

That's usually a good indication of how far you're throwing the ball.

Mitch was a dink and dunk QB in 2019. Prove me wrong.
