Hail the King

50 pass attempt games


40 pass attempt games
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

WTF is the point?

Tom Brady when throwing 50 pass attempts or more has a .667 win percentage. Number two on that list is Warren Moon at .500 with only 10 total games compared to 27. The vast majority of other QBs on that list are way under .500.

Tom Brady's win percentage when throwing 40 pass attempts or more has a .667 win percentage. Next on that list is Payton Manning with a .518 winning percentage. The vast majority of other QBs on that list are way under .500.

Tom Brady is the GOAT!

All those tables prove is the premise that quarterbacks pass attempts increase when their teams are behind and more often than not lose the game anyway, while Tom Brady throws more when BeliTrump want to run up the score on teams because he's a fucking asshole.

Hard to think of a more meaningless statistic.  W-L on days ending in the number 2?

Here's my stat: what's Brady's W-L record in Super Bowl games played against Eli Manning?

Haven't been on the forum since the game. Great game, amazing comeback win! I was shocked that they came from so far behind. I watched the parade in Boston today on TV. It went for over a couple hours, lots of fun.

:lol: Glad to see you can be goofy when the issue isn't law or economics.  The pretense that W-L record with high volume of passes per game is meaningless...  a joke worthy of you.

Exactly.  Brady has only led his team to 7 super bowls in 15 years, while Manning has led his to 2 in just 12 years!

Off the field, he sure does.  Plus, he believes in magic, unicorns, and Trump's honesty.  On the field, though, he is the GOAT.

He's had 46 4th quarter comeback wins in the regular season and the playoffs!

It's not like the Pat's are always leading.

Shut up.  You and grumbler should go out into the wilderness for an adventure, and grumbler comes back.
