That's typically what people believe when they see a high YPA.

Milkman and I both regard YPC as a statistic that's far more indicative of what a QB is doing on the field.

Thank you, come again.

Says who? Who here has suggested that YPA is some outstanding metric of downfield passing? Your reasoning is wholly circular. "YPC is the key element to winning"...and now you're conceding that it only shows if someone is passing downfield well. Again, how does that prove your premise that downfield passing is the most critical component to winning?

And hey, if milkman, whos been crushing Smith from the start believes it, it must be true. Today may be the worst appeal to authority one ever seen
