[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 847732"] It takes 1,500 pass attempts to qualify for the career list. Mahomes has currently 845 attempts and a 111.8 passer rating, on track to head the list next season. Watson has 910 attempts and a 104.1 rating, also a candidate to surpass Rodgers next season. As I noted before Rodgers recent statements, it is evident he puts a higher priorty on not throwing INTs than the QB rating formula. This season he has the one pick to MVS on the carom, a good throw with the receiver hit before the ball arrived. His previous pick was in Week 15 last season against the Bears, another good goal-to-go throw where it needed to be that went off Graham's hands. This was another play where the receiver was hit prior to the ball arriving. As noted previously, I'm not going to complain about the no-PI calls; these are bang-bang plays where you might not get the call one day and then get the call the. There were a couple of PI calls in that Houston/KC game yesterday no more egregious that these or the noteble deep throw to MVS. The point being, these were good throws where the INTs could have been negated. Before that you have to go back to Week 4 last season against the Bills. That was about a 10 yard seam throw to Graham at midfield in the 2nd. quarter. Edmunds made a leaping tip of the ball just behind the line, getting a finger or two on it, redirecting it, with Graham getting one hand on it and flipping it in the air, with Poyer snagging it. It wasn't a bad throw. It was a great play or fluke play by Edmunds, however you want to look at it, and then sh*t happens. Before that you have to go back to Rodgers 3-pick game against Carolina, his first game back after getting that plate and a dozen screws installed in his throwing shoulder. You'd reckon that might require some time to fully heal and adjust. So we're looking at nearly 800 throws without an airmailed pick, suckered on a route jump, suckered on a zone blitz with a guy dropping into the throwing lane, suckered by a safety on a deep ball. He sees and knows the field and isn't going to put it where the other guys can catch it. Were there some throws in that 800 that might have been picked but dropped? Surely. Every QB is the beneficiary of some of those. But they are few and far between. Rodgers was giddy early in the season with his, "We have a defense!" There's no mystery in that reaction. Playing good defense, protecting the ball, running the ball when you can, and having the confidence to get it done when the ball has to be put in the QBs hands can win a lot of games. Factor not getting kicks or punts blocked or giving up long returns into the equation. This is a good football team, not a great one. Except for SF, I've watched all the usual suspects for that "great" designation and I'm not seeing one yet. [/QUOTE]
