Dropped Passes - tied for 2nd worst in NFL
 

https://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/s...rcentage/2016/

Dropped 4.9% of passes this year compared to 3.5% last year. Harris better fix his shit in the offseason. Maclin had some uncharacteristic ones. DAT/Ware/West were pretty sloppy this season too. Conley had a couple but improved down the stretch.


At least 5 dropped passes in the loss to Pitt.


Total dropped passes: 26 in regular season

Maclin never gets the ball thrown his way so I can understand that...

Oakland has more dropped passes and they have an elite offense.

Kelce could have used some stick em

Is there a stat that tracks all the missed wide open receivers for a TD we can compare it to?

Because no QB ever misses open players... You stupid ****.

Maybe if Andy Reid can get in a time machine and bring back Randy Moss, Cris Carter, Tony Gonzalez and Marvin Harrison in their primes, we can improve to average on offense?

Well that's just not true. Alex does all the time!

Is it possible that Alex just doesn't throw a very catchable pass? I know this is not easy to gauge and I've never seen any kind of ranking among active QBs who throws a more catchable pass and who throws a less catchable pass, but the concept is not completely foreign.

For example, in the article below, Sam Wyche talks about Joe Montana throwing a particularly catchable pass.

I know that dropped passes killed us in this game. Ugh! They probably dropped 100yards worth of passes. Just unacceptable. Maybe they should start using Haley's port a potty technique in practice, or something. These guys, especially the guy that is supposed to be the best TE in the league, have got to catch those passes.

DAT and West didn't even get thrown to that much throughout the season, so they don't count.

Yes this is a very plausible theory just like the Kelce drop that was down at his knees. Would a better throw have made it a more manageable catch I think so but still no excuse for him dropping it. It was catchable.

I don't know but I saw quite a few passes this season that couldn't have been more "catchable". The guys just need to hold on to the damn ball.

I wanna blame Smith bad for us losing but I just can't. Drops were deadly. Smith converted on 4 th downs and tied the the game. Ref took it away like the NFL paid him to. They wanted Brady and Ben and got it.

He didn't play all that great the entire game. He had some errant throws some shake your head throws. He didn't propel the Chiefs to win the game and that is something he is going have to do at some point if Chiefs are serious about him taking us to the Super Bowl. He has to take the reigns and make it look like Chiefs are in business. He does not do that. Aaron Rodgers takes the reigns and you know the Packers are potent for it. That's the difference between the two of the same draft class.
