there is no way in holy hell that the team only has 11 drops this far in the season.

poo, there were at least 5 last game alone.

It's been updated since I was on there on the 3rd. Shows 15 drops now.

Then you have NBC's stats.

They have Ginn with 7, Funchess, Olsen and Dickson with 2 thats listed.

No way that funchess has 2 drops...

They must be very generous to these receivers...

Did you miss the easy ass drops Ted Ginn had last night? Two were straighted floated into his hands and he dropped them. And he doesn't even drop the lasers much either. 

So what you're saying is it's Cam's fault for putting too much touch on his passes? 3:)

Thanks!  I should update the avatar to a more bearded version, though.

Ted Ginn has dropped 23% of catchable balls thrown his way. That's really bad. Devin Funchess is at 46%. That's "are his eyes even open?"

Holy hell Funch... :/

...His azz needs to get about 10 yards in front of a Juggs machine, crank it on high and when he catches 10 in a row... only then will you have arrived grasshopper...

That Ginn drop that would have sealed the game against the Colts in OT. Omg I was yelling the F bomb all throughout my house when I saw that. Still our recievers always come back and make up for it.

7-0 means I'm not even mad bro

It has to be a very specif drop for them to count it. Olsen has like 5 drops this season, Cotchery and Norwood both had drops but they don't count if its even a remotely difficult catch.

It is a damn shame when our defense, has more interceptions than you have catches.

Basically Cam would be right at his completion career average if the drops were added back into his completion percentage this year. 59-60%

I'm sure every QB deals with some drops.  You can't just zero out the drops and compare him to other QBs because you would have to zero outs theirs also.  Now granted Cam's receivers probably have a higher percentage then others but the others would still have some.

I was talking about how bad our WRs more so than saying about other QBs just in this particular scenario.  Our WRs are struggling to get open, they are inconsistent in catching the football when thrown to, and Cam is pulling wins out in an unique fashion that cannot be measured by typical quarterback standards from 'experts'.  Drops are part of the game but I was not trying to compare Cam with others, just trying to compare Cam with his own history.

Pff has Cam at 23rd in accuracy rating with 71.0%. That percentage counts drops as catches, which they list as having 20, and remove batted balls, hit as thrown, throw aways, and spikes from the attempt total.
