QBs with lowest int percentage

[Motorola]

Notice how these are all QB's who have played since they neutered defenses.

Highest ranked QB who played his entire career before 2000 is Steve Bono.. 1995-99, 2.5%
Joe Montana 1979-94, and Steve Young 1985-99, both 2.6% = 44th place
66rh place - Dan Marino 1993-99..3.0%

Correction - Steve Bono's career was from 1985-99

You should probably care about this seasons performance

Yes, once the season begins, but right now I just have last years disaster to go off of

 

[ChronicCowboy]

You see some of the names on that list? Not all good.

Would like to see what Dak's INT stats were specifically in 2016, maybe 2017. Probably super-small, and then this past season was so awful that it pushed it to 2.0%. Just a theory though...

1,500 passes attempted is the number standard established for all NFL career records related to passing.
Doesn't matter how (relatively) brief a QB's career was, or how long ago he played.
9th on the list - Joe Burrow (tied with Prescott, Jones, Wentz, Goff, and Carr)
Burrow played in only 42 games across 3 seasons

Tied for 44rh with other players at 2.6% - Steve Young, 15 seasons (1985-99).

Steve is a good example of why career % stats aren’t as telling as prime years % stats. Cumulative totals are one thing, but percentage-based stats require a consistency you normally don’t achieve until later in your career. His career 2.6% counts his time in Tampa, but that isn’t what got him into the hall of fame, what got him all-pro in 6 of 7 years, what won him a SB.

Peyton threw 28 INTs his rookie year, should that affect how you viewed him when he was winning 12 games every year for 7 consecutive years? When he broke the season TD record… twice?

Same thing at the end of their careers, should Matt Ryan be remembered for these final, ugly seasons?

Stuff like this is as telling as it’s not

 

[Mac_MaloneV1]

any stat out there cannot disprove that dak is a mid tier QB in the 14-16 range . Value wise . with his cap cost , he would rank lower.

Of course there are no stats to you that disprove that, because you don't believe in things like statistics, or facts.

Every notable stat puts him in the top 10 lol

Career 1.7 before last year, and had only one season over 2.0.

Last season was a blip, anyone worth their salt knows that.

This is why the picks last year are more interesting than they are a sign of something ominous.

A QB who’s never been a huge interception guy suddenly throws 15 in 12 games then there’s a variety of factors at work. It’s not that the QB suddenly just became interception prone or worse at QB, in fact that’s the least plausible explanation.

In reality (and there have been multiple sources who’ve discussed these variables) the mix of only having 1 reliable WR, a step back in pass blocking, and the widening of a crack in the schematic marriage between Moore’s Coryell and Mike’s WCO played a huge role. Dak himself took more risks and was on different pages with pass catchers on options routes.

All these things contributed to the uncharacteristic rise in Dak’s picks. With personnel and schematic tweaks, I don’t foresee a league leading interception total next year. That’s just not who Dak has shown himself to be over the course of his career.

Insightful story about Matt Ryan's legacy at ESPN.com/NFL.
btw -'he will be an analyst with the NFL on CBS doing games and in studio.

 

[Captain-Crash]

can't be Herbert is up there, I read on here that he sucks

 

[BoyzBlaster]

He's also tied for the fewest Interceptions in conference championship games and super bowls.

 

[Qcard]

Tony Romo???

 

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

Brissett, Taylor, Kap, and Jones better than Dak.

No slander. Just the numbers, bro.

LOL, Lex Luger in rare form!

 

[Rockport]

Just goes to show that just numbers do not tell the whole story

as was mentioned several pretty sad QBs have a lower int % then Dak.

And of course there are a lot of HOF QBs that have a higher int% then Dak.

So taken by itself this stat has little meaning.

It means he doesn’t throw a lot of interceptions McFly.

 

[Motorola]

Tony Romo???

Romo__2.7%...tied for 52nd (Peyton, Vick, Dalton, Cam, and others)

Aikman___3.0%...tied for 66th (Marino, Palmer, Eli, and others)

Staubach__3.7%...tied for 122nd (Dave Krieg, Kelly, Doug Williams, and others)

Now, that's how you shut down a class jester!!

Great Post Salut!!

Overall stats are nice but I only care about last seasons performance. He has work to do.

He had a very bad season but overall stats tell you a lot. If a guy had that season every year it’s a major issue but a guy having a bad year doesn’t mean it’s necessarily a issue if it’s not repeated

 

[mcmvp]

Interception percentage and completion percentage stats really don't mean that much in the big picture.

Similar to the gas mileage numbers on the window sticker of a new vehicle.

Exactly….anyone notice that these “all time” numbers are all current players (with the exception of Brady who just retired). It’s a hell of a lot easier not to throw picks these days. This is the biggest nothing burger stat ever

He hasn’t been the same since the ankle injury imo and has gotten worse every year after it
