No longer than 10 years ago, stats like 4000+ passing yards, 30+ TDs, 65% completion percentage were considered "good."
Now, we're seeing far more QBs exceed those values because it's much more of a passing league and now there will be an extra game, so what is considered "good" now?
Stats for reference...
2010:
4000+ passing yards - 5 QBs
30+ TDs - 5 QBs
65+% completion percentage - 6 QBs
2020:
4000+ passing yards - 12 QBs
30+ TDs - 10 QBs
65+% completion percentage - 23 QBs(!!!)
What do people think the new thresholds should be for "good" QBs?
My thoughts:
With there being just 8 QBs at 68% or better, I think 68% is a good threshold for completion percentage.
There were 5 more QBs who were between 67.0 and 67.9.
If there was still a 16-game season, I'd say 4300 passing yards is the new "good." Only 6 QBs hit that threshold last year.
There were 2 more between 4250 and 4299.
With another game added to the season, I'd say 4500 or 4600 will be the new "good."
For passing TDs, we see a similar trend around 35+ TDs. Only 6 QBs hit that last year.
With another game added though, perhaps the threshold should be 37 TDs.
