QB garbage time passing yardage 2025

[Califan007]

Also, does this include the playoffs? Or is it just the regular season?

You didn’t explain it lol. I was talking about Goff not Dak.

My bad.... I was talking about 'garbage time' in general.

I don't quite understand how Goff is ranked #1 when Det was beating the crap out of teams last year. Maybe my understanding of 'garbage time' is wrong and that it applies equally to when you are on the bad or good end of a butt whooping.

 

[Brax]

It's a subjective stat, but you have to draw the line somewhere. Not a surprising list. We see a bunch of rookies and young QBs that need PT.. Thats half the top 10. Goff is no surprise since his coach likes to embarrass and humiliate opponents. Dak is certainly no surprise. During game threads when Dallas is behind 3 TDs in the second half, we call it "Dak time".

Yep one gets garbage time ahead by 28 and keeps throwing the other gets it from being behind and a soft Defense for the last quarter and a half. Daks number one in the second category,

Keep piling up the score and stats when way ahead is garbage time in Dallas we don’t get to see that we get the bad garbage time stats from playing so far behind

 

[blueblood70]

He’s 10th and missed over half of year. Easily number 1 in another category

the word he needs to be out of some of y'all's vocabulary, TEAMs/Coaches are THEY not HE,

just because they keep that stat for the quarterback, it goes the same I mean the yards.TDs that the receivers and the running backs are getting, points by the Kicker,, in the same garbage time, for some reason aren't being put up for debate, the sacks, TFL, and INT also added to players resumes duing these alleged garbage time,​

​

the fact that they were behind a lot of these games like in 2020 when Prescott got hurt last time, they're putting up a lot of points but still way behind or tied throughout the whole game ,you know what that's called?​

​

BAD DEFENSE!!!!​

​

did you watch the first half of the games ,they couldn't run, the receivers weren't getting open, and we were getting behind early in games because of the defense and those actual facts that are not blamed on the quarterback, is the quarterback has played from behind it's the other parts of the team that were getting us behind you know all the injuries on the defense did you watch the games ?​

​

?that's like saying in that Green Bay game you're blaming Prescott cause of a couple early interceptions which by the way you want to go back and check them out in slow MO and find out that those are not on him, when guys are going rogue like lamb was supposed to finish a route across the field and he turns up field, ie off script move, balls comingout anyway, too late, and then left the safety easily just right there to step in and go find that ball and on the other one you know the multiple infractions on the corner mugging Brandin cooks pulling his shoulder back so he can go around him and get the ball!!​

​

I mean the guys were not open and Prescott trying to make plays so he throws a couple interceptions but that doesn't take away from the fact we were down 7 nothing to start that game because of the defense and then every single possession by the Green Bay offense they especially walked the ball down the field you're blaming that on Prescott?​

​

that they have to play from behind? put into passing situations with no run game and further they got behind the D knew what was coming.​

​

no ,that is a ridiculous perspective and it makes no sense you have 0 feel for how football is, every team plays either from ahead or behind they all have garbage time stats, where they're putting up stats in games and that's why you just average it out over 17 games all teams and all quarterbacks are in similar positions when you look at it as an entire schedule is played instead of trying to nitpick and find reasons why you wanna hate your quarterback more because you're wrong most of those games we're behind because of the team was bad and parts of the team especially the defense or bad against some of those teams even Dan Quinn's defenses could not play well against the better teams with the good running backs and the mobile quarterbacks..​

​

we got behind in games a lot because of the defense, do we need to talk about the defense? they're the ones putting us behind or when you play bad teams and your offense is just running them over and they just continue to put up points there's nothing wrong with that that's not garbage time that's just continuing to play the game until the coaches pull you out you know keep your foot on the gas but again it happens to every quarterback on every team..​

I think it's hilarious though about five of those quarterbacks were on playoff teams and some of the ones at the top of the list we're on playoff games this just shows their proof that it happens to every quarterback and every team these stats are built against weaker teams are with bigger leads or when you're playing from behind because you have a bad start to the game or your defense sucked and now you gotta play catch up it happens it's part of the game I mean this is not Prescott it's not Romo you are a terrible fan and anybody who thinks that the only way he built his stats for 9 years to be one of the best players in the league he's going to own just about all of the Dallas cowboy passing records and you're saying it was all built differently than any other quarterback ever play that he's the only one who built his career and got paid because of garbage time stats you Sir are ridiculous...

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I've never even heard of the percentage thing. To me 'garbage time' has always been about a team that is getting their butts beat so bad the opposing offense / defense takes their foot off the gas and your offense can suddenly start moving the ball at will. Use the 2023 GB playoff game for a perfect example. GB took most of their starters out early in the 2nd half and Dallas started looking competent when they weren't anywhere close.

It says exactly on the tweet what it is lol…it’s using their definition of garbage time not yours lol….

To me when the game is out of reach it’s garbage time. 30-0 going into the 4th is garbage time. If a person is losing 24-0 and you they bring the game within one score I can’t call them garbage time.

 

[Brax]

One player that is always brought up in every thread on here. Some will disregard all the other players.
Make fun of Dak all you want. It is entertainment to see how funny as well ridiculous some comments are. Pro and con.

The guy played 8 games less than half the season and he’s in the top 12 take away the good garbage stats and he’s in the top 7 in less than half a season. It’s a trait that has been his calling card his entire career.

 

[thunderpimp91]

Throw out those stupid stats. They are just made up garbage.
Fans just want to use them to hate on one player.

Some are some aren’t. This makes a ton of sense though and I guarantee gambling sites are using similar formulas in their algorithms to adjust over/under numbers this year. The odds of some of these players seeing close to or over 20% of their yards when a game is out of hand again isn’t realistic.

 

[blueblood70]

Bad teams will have a lot of garbage time passing yards, IMO. Teams with the lead don't usually throw the ball as much as they try to burn the clock.

That's not true anymore, that used to be the concept, but they don't do that a lot teams just keep playing their regular offense even with a big lead or when they're down they throw the ball a lot whether it's checkdowns or more safe place they still not letting their foot off the gas until way late in the game yeah some teams may go into a run shell but most don't...

That's about as bad for an offense to think about because teams come back from big leads nowadays chunk plays things happen you can't just go into a shell and get super conservative the other team's going to just chucking it all over the place, like you call it garbage yards, they're just trying to make a comeback and some of them get pretty close to making a comeback, you call it garbage all you want every team goes through it over 17 games they're all getting the advantage of playing weaker teams or any game where it got lopsided quick and out of control and they just put up a lot of stats..

it happens on all sides of the ball too we see it with interceptions and sacks and for loss this isn't just the quarterback in hell isn't that garbage time for the running back I mean is that what we're saying here that they start running the ball a lot wearing down the defense because they're playing with the lead? that that running back didn't have some kind of advantage because that's garbage time what does it matter whether it's throwing the football or running it somebody on the offense is getting garbage sacks they're patting their stats..​

​

This is why it's just ridiculous to be pointing weird analytical type stats out so we can pick on a player that you may not like and in this case it's our quarterbacks Romo and Prescott apparently they built their whole careers on garbage stats only and no other player in the history of the NFL does wrong they all do that's why they're 17 games most of them have weaker records and worse stats against the better teams against the playoff caliber teams those are lower scoring games that are very close it usually comes down to the kicker..​

So when you say only bad teams no all teams 17 games your stats are what they are you can find ways to try to slant the narrative that a player is only building his stats off garbage time without actually bringing all 32 of every player on every one of those teams in those situations because you'll find they're all getting an advantage of it and that's how they build their stats that's how they get paid it is what it is... This is like when we're talking about Parsons allegedly disappearing and bigger games against better teams there are better offensive lineman of course I see this with other players as well I mean TJ watts is winless in four games in the playoffs he only has like 1 sack in four games I mean are you kidding me but he put up a lot of stats in the regular season and a lot of those stats came against a weaker offensive line that's how it works yes you're expected to get some against the better players you're going against and it does happen but they're severely cut into their stat lines when they're playing the better offensive lines or when you're playing the better defense is you're not gonna put up the same yards and that is just how it is everyone making this a thing when it's not a thing...

Well, hell, I never thought if it that way? (whatever you said).

I see you put some new batteries in your smooth talking machine. smdh

Finally a person here with common sense,

if they made it a game within 2 scores like 10 points like down big in the first half and they got it all the way to a point where the game could have been one but they just fell short like you said lost by three points lost by five points that is not garbage time that is cold keep playing because you're supposed to use 60 minutes of your time to try to win the game and then we've seen it we've seen Jayden Daniels you're telling me all the way up to that point they were losing and then they got the lucky balance and Noah brown on the Hail Mary they won that game..

they had quite a few games like that that's why his name is up there but there's not a reason to knock these players this is normal you play the whole game and it should not even be called garbage time because all 17 teams the entire team and all three phases are putting up stats against a weaker teams and they had struggled against the tougher teams and that's why it averages out and you hope that you've won enough games to get in the playoffs but trying to nitpick where they got their stats from and only pick the players you hate so you can say he's built his whole career on just garbage time is so garbage the opinion is garbage that's keeping stats like this is garbage so this whole entire thread is garbage time. lol.

Once again .... it is a ... made up stat .....
I guess when Dallas had leads in the 2nd half and especially the 4th quarter, all of Emmitt's yards were garbage time stats as they ran out the clock?

Guess what?
ALL yards count.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

If Dak played the whole season he'd be #1 by a mile.

The fact that he's this high while missing half the season is embarrassing.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

It is just used to bad on Dak. For in here anyway.

It is all a mythical stat anyway.

As if we need this to hate on Dak.

Dak haters already know he sucks.

This stuff gets posted so we can laugh at Dak fans like yourself with hard proof of things we already know to be true.

They consider it garbage time if you have a 95 percent chance of winning which is nuts. They were 15-2…..

Do your math again…specifically Jordan Love….

 

[JayFord]

Unless the game is completely out of hand then it's not garbage time

Issue is people think being down 2 or 3 scores at the start of the 4th is garbage time

It's not, you need yards and points and you need them in a hurry

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

They consider it garbage time if you have a 95 percent chance of winning which is nuts. They were 15-2…..

Or in losers Daks case a less than 5% chance of winning.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Cooper Rush played the same amount of games as loser Dak did last year.

You don't see him on this list.

Wrong, there’s no garbage time running out time.
