So,

we need to work harder on development of our

HBs?

 

Gawd, I'm so sorry.

Interesting stuff.  Most koolaid drinkers try to give GM/RL credit for improving NM as a passer in 2014 using completion % and yardage totals and it's hard to refute those stats, but you know in your heart it isn't really true.  These stats show the rest of the story (besides the won/loss decline).

Rating dropped almost 7 points, and the % of games with a rating of 131 or higher dropped almost 7 percent.  That kind of tells me what i knew but couldn't prove.  QB play wasn't better in 2014 as opposed to 2013.  Awesome @StatTiger!

2012 is rated #3? Wow, that's surprising...

However in the "things that could have been" category, if you take just the games that Sean was the starting QB and healthy, you get an average RAT of 171.5, and a rating over 131 for 87.5% of the games.  Heck, keep Clemson and Georgia in there and you still get an average RAT of 149.72 and a percentage over 131 of 70%.  What that tells me is that our back-ups and other "QBs" REALLY drug our numbers down (based on the stats I'm seeing, Jeremy's numbers did the majority of the damage).

The numbers that Stat is quoting take into account ALL players who took a snap and threw the ball.  Nicks rating was 143.2 in 2013 and 151.1 in 2014.  Would you like some Kool-aid?

These are SEC numbers, not Auburn numbers...

And overall offensive production and # of wins declined.  I can do this all day with stats, and I'll still pass on the Kool-Aid.

I also found it interesting that JF3 had a rating of 154.4 and SW had a rating of 146.9 for the season.
