poor arm strength is another factor for interceptions. That plagued Ty Detmer and was one reason he was never an effective pro QB.

That's a read issue, not a playcall issue.

Poor decision making = more interceptions
Inaccuracy = more interceptions

Taysom has consistently had a poor TD:interception ratio. That's not luck. That's who he is.
It's mostly luck.

ERA is mostly luck + fielding and people still use that worthless statistic.

Taysom's INT/ATT
2016 4.6%
2015 2.9%
2014 2.3%
2013 3.2%
2012 2.8%

Looks pretty random to me.

NFL average is 2.9%

Interception rate Year-to-Year correlation is only 24%. Weak.

Look at the list by touchdown to interception ratio.

Just by your own eyes, do you think it generally trends towards the better QBs having better ratios?

No need to obfuscate the signal by throwing TDs in there.

QBs who throw the most interceptions are good too.

And the list is drastically different year-to-year.

So you think TD:interception ratio is important?

Well, Hill sucks at that.

Playing Hill now is the foundation for a lot of bad things going into the future. But who cares.

MikeWaters 09-27-2016 02:10 PM
Hill's TD:interception ratio is ranked #117 out of 121, at 0.571428571

Self-styled "Quarterback U" has one of the worst QBs in the country, while one of the best true freshmen in BYU history rides the pine.
