In 17 completions - 2 TD & 286 yards with 144.5 rating. He won because he earned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didnt watch the game, you would think Brees deserves the award. And the only reason Brees threw for that much is because they couldnt put the cardinals away, and he had to keep airing it out.

papachaz Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I bet part of why Freeman got it was the video they showed included his TD where he ran through the tackle attempts one of which included the facemask but yeah, great job and congrats to both of em!

MilleniumFalcon Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Given the stats, Brees deserved to win but I'm not mad that Ryan won. Congrats Ryan, his second one this season I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually 100 less completions and 120+ less attempts, which is even more absurd considering Brees is only 223 passing yards in front of Ryan. If Ryan had completed the same amount of passes as Drew "pad my stats" Brees, he would be well over 5k passing yards by now!

Just use the yards per attempt and the completion % or the yards per completion - and get your number: Actual numbers: Ryan: 319 of 465 for 68.6%, 4,336 yards, 9.33 ypa, 13.60 ypc, 32 TD 7 Int, TD per att .07, Int per att - .02 Brees: 419 of 589 for 71.1%, 4,559 yards, 7.74 ypa, 10.88 ypc, 34 TD 14 Int, TD per att .06, Int per att - .03 Ryan's numbers - based on Ryan's percentages and Brees attempts (319/465)*589 = 404 completions, 5495 yards, 41 TD, 9 int Brees numbers - based on Brees' percentages and Ryan's attempts (419/589)*465 = 331 completions, 3,599 yards, 27 TD, 11 Int Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think that Eli threw the ball 63 times last night and just one TD but 3 ints. It's nice to be able to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
