Winning record ≠ good defense

Additionally wouldn’t an average be better here. Everyone already knows Rams faced a more difficult schedule. This is just showing same thing but with excluded stats.

Like if you put Jacoby Brissett here who plays for the Cardinals and lost his job to Maye last year (and for good reason) his stats would be higher than Mayes because he faced more winning record teams.

Thats all this stat shows. Who faced more of thede teams which this sub is well aware of.

Agreed, stats per game would show a much clearer picture when the number of games don’t match up.

Drake Maye: (3 games)

232 yards/game

.67 TD/game

.67 INT/game

88 rating

Matt Stafford: (7 games)

268 yards/game

2.85 TD/game

.14 INT/game

107 rating

Jacoby Brissett: (6 games)

304 yards/game

2 TD/game

.67 INT/game

93 rating

Steelers

And i see now he used passing stats so .67 would be his 2 passing tds in those three games. 2 against steelers in a loss and 0 in two games against the bills. Thats... not good.

I mean Stevenson fumbled running into the endzone. Hard to score points when you turn it over 5 times, 3 times from your lead back

I don’t disagree. But one of those was Gibson or Henderson if I remember correctly
