good grief. i get the impression you don't watch the games.

quote:

you are only applying that parameter burrow
here's where you're wrong. not only did i reference burrow's qbr, but i also showed how when lsu is actually mixing it up/throwing downfield, you know, those things that characterize an offense that's trying, burrow is about as good as anybody, especially given the competition

quote:

Anybody can set any statistical parameter they want to make anyone look good or bad
false

The commonly accepted stats are commonly accepted for a reason
i used "commonly accepted stats." you just don't want to read between the lines, i.e. the 2nd half when lsu is leading big

quote:

No other quarterback gets his stats recompiled the way you and others do for burrow
what the frick? have you EVER watched football? analysts do this ALL THE TIME

quote:

quit getting offended
i haven't gotten offended one time. although i did call out your ridiculous response to a facile correlation

quote:

you thinking madeup quarterback stats based on dropped passes and playcallers letting up has anything to with strength of record
you're making this WAY more difficult than it really is.

the point i was making is that there were 2 games against lesser competition when lsu had a big lead and CLEARLY changed the playcalling. i realize you don't want to accept this but, it affects the passing stats. PLOT TWIST

moreover, when lsu plays a stronger opponent and the game is closer, the stats seem to be better. and burrow's stats are improving in comparison with other qb's. WHO KNEW?

i can't believe how much effort you are putting into this. it's like trying to explain why the sky is blue to a kid

you forget to mention the dropped balls and offensive line shortcomings he had to overcome? And the quality of the defense he played?
i swear it's like none of you even watched the game.

both herbie and fowler were commenting on how haskins had ONE PASS attempt beyond 10 yards in the first half and that he had thrown 27 screens so far this season. yeah, he looked great on the 5 million screens they ran. when he tried to pass beyond that, he missed BADLY. especially in the 2nd half when he tried to go deep a couple of times. the passes were way off.

yeah, he made a gutsy play on the scramble and hit the receiver who ran for a td. and his first pass of the game for 8 yards looked sharp. other than that, there weren't nearly as many "drops" as people are saying. the o line wasn't nearly as bad as people were saying.

he wasn't asked to do much. throw 5 million screens, miss on some under 10 yard attempts, miss wildly on a couple of deep shots. and btw, burrow is an infinitely better runner.

personally, i think lsu got the better end of the deal. haskins has a big upside and will probably end up being really really good for them but burrow is better and has better intangibles

And at the end of the season, let's revisit whether or not Haskins is Better than Burrow or not.


Why are you afraid to do it now?

Haskins is a very good QB, but NOT better than Burrow)


Haskins passed burrow on the depth chart at Ohio st last year.

Haskins was on the field beating Michigan last year, not burrow.

Burrow left Ohio st because he didn't think he was going to start over Haskins.

Haskins has far better numbers than burrow does on the season.

Haskins has far better numbers against inferior teams than burrow does.

Haskins has far better numbers against a top 10 opponent than burrow does.

Now, give your evidence that burrow is better than Haskins.

BTW, CBS Named Burrow the SEC player of the week today - national media is starting to notice Burrow.


Haskins has been named big 10 player of the week 3 times this year, including this past week.

CBS named Haskins national player of the week after week 3.

Very few fans of any school see that outside of you
since you're so fond of comparisons, how about you compare the number of screens the 2 qb's have thrown vs the 10+ yard passes and factor in strength of competition

you must have missed all of the former lsu qb threads that have been posted over the last couple of years where people chronicle their journey and stats. i personally find it an interesting topic and situation

Meyer gave him a date. Went past date. It’s actually pretty simple. Meyer couldn’t or wouldn’t decide but if u from Ohio u know that Haskins best Mich. so Joe being from Ohio ultimately knew what the decision was going to b.

Penn State did exactly what they said they would. Thhey knocked him off his spot. Haskins is not nearly as accurate without time to throw. He throws all bullets. That's great if he is deadly accurate (he usually is). But if those passes are a foot or to out of the sweet-spot, they are very tough for a WR to handle. So, some of those so-called "drops" were QB error.

YPC includes YAC. Taking a screen to the house blows up those numbers
but it's ceteris parabis meaning, it's the same for the other qb's too

quote:

YPA is available, which is a better measure of the effectiveness
lsu at nearly 8 ypa.
#1 wsu - 7 ypa.
ole miss - 9 ypa.
ok st - 9 ypa.
a&m - 8 ypa

How WR's interact while running routes is a major issue. OSU's top 3 WRs have been together more than 4 years (they are 5th year Seniors). 4 other OSU WRs are in their 3rd year.

LSUs WRs are now just beginning to gel with Burrow and each other

do you have some vested interest in crapping on burrow to prop up haskins? you seem to be going to a lot of trouble to ignore something that's pretty obvious - haskins is throwing A TON of screens and hasn't played any competition. burrow is in a brand new system with new offense players with a new oc and has played infinitely tougher competition
