thanks for the work put in!
Just adding that in that first NYG game, Alex was coming off a finger injury that occurred the week prior. Did it factor into his poor NYG performance? Eh... hard to really say. From memory, one INT was due to the WR/QB not being on the same page. WR ran a route one way.. QB expected a different route.. it was a timing route. On another, Alex got baited well by the DB.. that's on him. The other, yeah, the desperation was upon us, and he had to force one in.
Either way, what you posted is interesting. I hope he doesn't need to put the ball up 30+ times... something in the 20-30 works for me.
