Well, I am an admitted old fart, and I remember a few things about the "old" NFL. I'm not unwilling to learn about "today's" NFL. I think I'm starting to figure it out.
Check me on this:
It doesn't actually matter which team catches the ball at the end of a pass. The important part is the distance the ball travels through the air by the quarterback that threw it.
If your quarterback consistently throws passes that go many yards through the air, regardless of which team catches it, he is an elite franchise quarterback, and your team actually has a chance to win the Superbowl.
If your quarterback rarely throws passes that go many yards through the air, and the only players that catch the ball are players on the same team, your quarterback sucks, and you have zero chance of ever winning a playoff game. You MIGHT back into the playoffs, but you will absolutely never win.
Am I getting this right? Now I gotta figure out how they tie the scoreboard to those passing yards and I'm home free.
This new NFL is kinda quirky, it's like learning to play cribbage.
I don't think it matters if Geno throws interceptions, does it? What was his total yardage on them.... Right?
