Timeouts?!

We'll take care of that.
^^ People will baby whine because they hate numbers that they didn't grow up with and they can't trust with just a single glance, but your starting point on this is definitely Football Outsiders.


The standard for quarterback play moves by a measurable amount almost every year.

In '96 seven guys had a completion % over 60. In 2015 8 guys had a comp % UNDER 60%. 3 guys threw for 4000 yards in '96, 12 in 2015 including quarterbacks who are not a majority consensus "good" like Matt Ryan, Ryan Tannehill, Bort, Stafford, and Cousins. Passer rating is not a good value stat, but only 2 guys were over 90 in 1996 and 6 were over 100 in 2015. 5 quarterbacks had an int% of >3.0, last year 5 had a <3.0%, etc. Bortles last year and Testaverde in 96 look remarkably similar.
