Not including the two Monday Night Games. 1. Tom Brady, NE 146.6 2. Chad Pennington, NYJ 130.5 3. Tony Romo, DAL 128.5 4. Jake Delhomme, CAR 125.7 5. Peyton Manning, IND 125.4 Number 2. In Chad i will still trust. Have fun with this.
what were the average yard passing stats. i bet penny was under 8yds a pass while the others were over 10 or even more. penny did what penny does, dink and dunk. it's not very hard to have a good completion percentage when you throwing the ball 5 yds and having the reciever's run for even more yardage to make his percentages look even better. penny did well yesterday, considering, but he still isn't going to beat the better defensive teams in this league with the dink and dunk crap. teams crowd the line because he can't throw down the field. did you notice the difference between how far our secondary played back compared to there's. big advantage there. those are just more meaningless stats. they don't give us a victory at the end of the day...
How is Ben not there? He had what, 4 TDs? Brady, Manning, Romo and Ben clearly were the best this week. Actually I'd bet LT has a high QB rating too. Probably higher than Rivers...
What a complete load of crap. http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/playb...ayPage=tab_play_by_play&season=2007&week=REG1 Chad's passes: 9 yards to Cotchery 11 yards to Washington 8 yards to Cotchery 6 yards to Coles 10 yards to Cotchery 17 yards to Coles 10 yards to Coles 16 yards to Washington 8 yards to Cotchery 7 yards to Coles, TD 11 yards to Cotchery 11 yards to Cotchery 16 yards to Baker 13 yards to Baker 1 yard to Coles, TD A majority of those passes were not dumpoff passes but either downfield passes or designed sreen plays (the Washington plays). He was actually very impressive if you consider the fact that the Patriots defense was eating our offensive line alive. Pennington spent a large part of the game on the floor. It wasn't like Brady who could stand in the pocket for 6 seconds waiting for Randy Moss to run all the way down the field, and then cut across the field. Yes, Chad doesn't have an elite arm. Everyone knows this. However, this hate of Chad is complete and utter nonsense. If you truly want to bring the heat down on Chad after yesterday, then you know absolutely nothing about football.
1. Tom Brady 10.6 2. Chad Pennington 8.0 3. Tony Romo 14.4 4. Jake Delhomme 7.4 5. Peyton Manning 9.6 Pennington had us in the game. He didn't make many mistakes and got killed by an awful line. The other 4 quarterbacks won their games...if you statistically look at qb with high qb ratings, most win their games.
lol, i do believe i said penny did well considering(oline).. but your stats are a joke also. how far did he actually throw the ball and how much did the reciever get after the catch!! you have a reading comprehension problem! and yes, i don't think you know much about football. throwing decieving stats out there like the original poster is just homering like many others here.
The offense is designed around YACs. That's not a knock on Pennington. It would be the same for Clemens or anyone else.
I don't agree. It's designed that way because it's the scheme the co-ordinator thinks will generate positive yardage and ultimately points, couple with healthy time of possession, whilst minimising turnovers.
Two long touchdown drives despite no running game and against a pretty good defense.Chad had a good game imo.
topics like this annoy me. i also highly doubt the jets passing offense is designed around YAC because pennington hasn't hit a WR in stride since 2002.
Yes I'm semi-retarded when it comes football, everyone knows. You didn't get the memo? Pick your fights wisely newbie. You asked for the numbers, I provided. QB rating rewards mistake free, high completion rate QBs that score TDs. These aren't my stats, they are the NFLs. According to this NFL statistic 2 QBs out of the top 10 didn't win their game. That's 80% accurate and not something to overlook.
The friggin guy got sacked 6 times. If we sacked Brady six times, and gave Chad the 6-7 seconds to throw that our impotent D gave NE, the score would also have been reversed. Sheesh.
we'll have to agree to disagree, but i think most on this board would agree the passing game is limited to what penny can do...
We were not in that game we were absolutely blown out. Pennington played well he also was 22nd in yards yesterday and we scored 14 points with his gaudy QB rating. This team doesn't score enough in a league that has continually changed the rules to help the deep passing game. We have a pop gun O which is fine if you have a D that is going to stop prolific scoring teams in a league that has changed the rules to favor the deep passing game. Pennington was not the problem yesterday. If everyone else plays well we still lose 24 to 17. Sometimes you have to open it up and go toe to toe with the opposition in scoring. Pennington's game is based on control and against a good team who can score at will sometimes you have to throw out the playbook and air it out. The Pats killed us up front yesterday and no doubt it would have been tough for any QB to get his feet set and wing the ball into what is a terrible secondary. While I don't in any way blame Pennington for what happened yesterday and in fact I thought he played well and showed great heart, I still think we ultimately will be better served by a QB with serious NFL tools and smarts. Until we have one on the roster or Clemens proves he is that guy this is a pretty moot argument now that the season has started.
Oh, and maybie the newbie could tell us how many of those top rated QBs wound up on their back 6 times yesterday ?
I can see this game, the Ignorance of Jetdom, and stupid criticisms like these regarding Chad, catapulting Chad into iconic status if he continues to be the awesome leader, QB and over decent human being he is. The Jets nation does not deserve a man like Chad. Anyone seen Michael Vick? I think he could make it here.. I for one from now on will not pass up any opportunity to defend Chad after what he did and how he was not appreciated yesterday.
We were completely out played in the first half, but the score was 14-7. Pennington was one of the better players in the first half. And had us fighting in spite of getting sacked and hit a million times without a running game. Sure QB rating should be modified to reward TDs higher than completion percentage, but it still probably the most accurate statistic that is provided today. Bottom line, we're going to find out next week what Clemens has. I have a feeling Pennington is going to sit.
again, there jut numbers. how much yardage came with those elite stats. it was bottom of the barrel yardage, is what it was. just numbers for the sunshiners to see what they want to see.
i've based my observations on penny over his career. not just one game. so he got sacked 6 times. it just helps prove my point about stats, they're just meaningless numbers sometimes.
