One Quarter of the season in the books folks, and it is looking better!

We’ve seen the fluky play and the magic.

Here’s what his statline looks like:

87 completions
124 attempts
for 935 yards
= 70% completion rate & 7.54 y/a

12 TDs to 4 ints.

TD%
= 9.7%

INT%
= 3.2

QB rating
= 110.8


a straight line projection gives us:

3740 yards, 48 TDs, 16 ints

not bad, right?

over a 4 game sequence, some significant numbers and trends:

his yardage sequence has gone from under 200 y/g to cresting towards 300:

68.2%
69.2%
71.4%
70.6%

in each game he’s had a LNG of 40+:

40

his TD-INT ratio has never been in the red, and has grown to 3:1:
2-0
1-1
3-2

his QB rating shows efficiency, and control over his game, even though he’s had some highly visible ints, meaning that his positive plays are outweighing his negatives after a whole game is in the books:
