You can compare games that have similar passing attempts though and average them?

That's been my point from the beginning. Take a few similar games, use the average from each game to get an average. It's what I did. I didn't take games like the ones in your example.

And, as predicted, the average and the raw data were less than a point apart. That wasn't luck.

Yes that's how math works. 

You do you.

You are a smart person. Figure it out. 

Also, how did bragging about this thread go for you in the blog? 

Yikes. I read the replies. Talk about turning a win into a loss. 

Yes, 4 replies in the blog compared to 49 @HazletonEagle Eagle gifs that I smashed you

Why are you only calculating the QB rating average thought? If you truly care, you’d calculate the variance, which will illustrate how consistent/inconsistent a QB is.

No you can't. That's not how this works, that's not how any of this works. Just because the games you picked were close, doesn't make it proper. In fact, the very fact that they are different proves your method is wrong.

You're wrong. It's OK to just admit that you're wrong. 

The entire mathematical world:

1 + 1 = 2

JSB:

I don't agree with that calculation, I get 1 +1 = 3, and because the numbers are close, I must be on to something. 

Not sure why this thread is ok but the thread about Hurts being gay wasn't. We were all having a perfectly normal conversation until RTK got all homophobic

I think we got a little too close to our answer in that thread....the mods clearly have something to hide

Yes. The one questioning his inability to throw straight

Pretty good idea.  Keep it in here fellas and try to keep it cordial. 👍👍

The thread.  To keep most of the back and forth in here instead of the blog.

The purpose of the thread was to prove me wrong and make me quit the board.

All jsb has accomplished is thoroughly embarrassing himself.

Wait, did we ever discover who the poster that jsb allegedly made quit was?

I agree that jsb's selected 3 game stretch is more impressive.  Hurts passed for more yardage, had more pass attempts, and kept a 66% completion percentage. Isn't throwing more and running less something DUM and his crew are always criticizing Hurts over?  So it's funny that he finds that to be the less impressive stretch.  

Oh well, at least this thread is entertaining

Lets have some fun today @jsb235, and continue to prove your average of averages does not work.

 

Here are two baseball players, I will give you their season batting averages for two seasons, tell me what each players batting average is for both seasons, and which player has the highest average for both seasons combined.

 

Player A - .250 & .314

Player B - .253 & .321

So, confession, I was a little tipsy when I made that post. Friday afternoons are probably a good time to ignore most of what I write, since golf leads right into happy hours. I did have a pretty big argument about Mailata in the preseason with a few people right before he became a starter, and one of them did start posting way less right after that. But the two are most likely unrelated.

So my bad for bringing that up. The tequila was running heavy.

You said you can take the average of the averages, so just apply your math and give me an answer.
