You're using a stat, that by conventional methods, says inaccuracy doesn't matter.
QB 1: Completes a long pass of 30 yards, but miss the next 5.
He has a yards per completion of 30. But it negates the fact he missed the other 5. His YPA is 5.0
QB 2: By comparison, completes that pass for 30, then the next 5 he hits 2/5 and gets 20 yards. His yards per completion is 16.7, whereas his YPA is 8.3
by your argument, QB 1 is 'better' and doesn't 'dink and dunk'
By your argument the QB2 gets penalized for hitting easier passes in his progression.
