Message: [QUOTE="Millhouse, post: 420181, member: 78"] the trend is to throw less as the year goes on. and generally, he has better ratings. 21% of his qb rating is inversely related to the number of attempts if i got the r squared right (big if). it's only 21% but that's still somewhat important. as the year goes on, the trend is to run relatively more. over nassib's whole career, there's not really much correlation. need to run the ball a lot more and get attempts down to 25 a game. another way to look at it - last year nassib threw 32 times each of the last 8 games (average 36). this year, 4 of the last 8 games have had 31 or fewer (avg 34) considering the difference in pace this year (there's going to be more of everything), i think it tells us something or at least gives us a little hope that we don't neccessarily need to depend too much on a freshman throwing too much [/QUOTE]
