At this point I really want to see the list of guys who were worseSo he’s not the worst
Haarberg is definitely not worse. It's not even close.Haarberg had 3 turnovers today, an additional fumble and an additional INT that luckily was given back because of a penalty away from the throw. Sims is bad and has horrendous issues, but Haarberg is worse. He leads the country in fumbles...
Haarberg is definitely not worse. It's not even close.
Do Sims and Haarberg actually turn it over at the same rate?
TLDR: Sims has turnovers on ~6.5% of snaps at NU, HH on ~3% of snaps. Sims Pass efficiency rating: 99.6 (https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/jeff-sims-1.html) Record as starter: 0-2 Sims turnovers: 7 (4 INT, 3 fumbles lost) Games played: 2 Turnovers per game: 3.5 Total snaps...theplatinumboard.com
I'm not back ftr. I wanted Sims to get another shot because Haarberg is so bad but those 4 snaps were enough to see the boy is broken.In case anyone forgot. Sims was in for 5 snaps last week. He turned the wrong way on the handoff twice, nearly snapped the ball into the motion receiver's butt again, and then fumbled his keeper which gave Purdue an instant 7 points.
Literally the entire board was finally in agreement that Sims was worse, and all the Sims cucks swore off of him saying they were done for good. And now, shocker, they're all back.
Who?Greg Marino
The Miami Sharks quarterback. Do you even football?Who?
If we ignore the constant interceptions and fumbles and zero effort trying to recover his fumbles and him not being able to catch a shotgun snap, he's really not a bad running back
Plus they set that arbitrary average 14 attempts per game, so you lose most of the run the damn ball teams. It would be much more useful to compare him against QBs in his pass attempt range, averaging like 12-16 attempts per game or whatever. I'm sure he'd still be on the lower end but it wouldn't be as eye popping as this is.2 of these are direct functions of how little we attempt to pass. Completion percentage and YPA are highly correlated.
Obviously HH is no Greg Marino, and the completion percentage blows chunks, but this list feels like someone trying to restate the same thing in multiple ways to make it seem like it's more dramatic.

Where’s sims atAt this point I really want to see the list of guys who were worse
Not on the list because he hasn't played in 75% of the games. His pass efficiency rating is somehow lower than Haarberg's though.Where’s sims at
He'd probably rank lower. QB's that pass a lot tend to have lower yards per attempt.Plus they set that arbitrary average 14 attempts per game, so you lose most of the run the damn ball teams.

In yards per attempt very possibly. But certainly not in yards per game and probably not in completion percentage either.He'd probably rank lower. QB's that pass a lot tend to have lower yards per attempt.
Anything per game.In yards per attempt very possibly. But certainly not in yards per game and probably not in completion percentage either.
