The splits have not been updated since last week, but going into this past Sunday's games, here were their percentage of attempts for each distance split --


BEHIND LINE OF SCRIMMAGE
Griffin: 23.3 percent of all attempts
Luck: 12.5 percent of all attempts

1-10 YARDS DOWNFIELD
Griffin: 46.4 percent of all attempts
Luck: 47.9 percent of all attempts

11-20 YARDS DOWNFIELD
Griffin: 22.0 percent of all attempts
Luck: 27.1 percent of all attempts

21-30 YARDS DOWNFIELD
Griffin: 3.1 percent of all attempts
Luck: 8.7 percent of all attempts

31-40 YARDS DOWNFIELD
Griffin: 1.8 percent of all attempts
Luck: 2.1 percent of all attempts

41-PLUS YARDS DOWNFIELD
Griffin: 3.1 percent of all attempts
Luck: 1.7 percent of all attempts



There is no split for 15 or more, but here are the combined numbers for 10 yards or less and 11 yards or more --

10 YARDS DOWNFIELD OR LESS
Griffin: 70.0 percent of all attempts
Luck: 60.4 percent of all attempts

11 YARDS DOWNFIELD OR MORE
Griffin: 30.0 percent of all attempts
Luck: 39.6 percent of all attempts


So, Griffin throws a far higher percentage of his passes behind the line of scrimmage and more deep bombs. Luck throws more of his passes everywhere in between -- from 1-40 yards downfield.
