That's still a high number, considering WE usually have better hands and 65% is a very good rate.

Again...is it only a high number for Romo?

Clicking the link and seeing "adjusted" interceptions was a let down. Weak study. I was hoping for some analysis weighing interceptions. Like how much harm they caused the team. You know, something useful. Some interceptions aren't any worse than an incomplete pass, and some are brutal game killers, but we usually only see them accounted as a single equal unit.

What if you factored in QB's that have more "air yards"? Shouldn't that be part of the study. Surely QB's that take more risks should have mor int's.

If your going to manipulate stats, at least go the whole nine yards.
