All 12 QBs lowest completion % in any season that they started as many games as Josh Freeman, including rookie seasons for crappy teams.

Tom Brady – 60.2

Peyton Manning – 56.7 no years under 62 after that

Carson Palmer – 58.1 in a 4 start 2008 because of injury, never under 60 other than that

Joe Flacco – 60.0

Brett Favre – 57.3 with 13 of his 16 years over 60

Kurt Warner – 62.3

Phillip Rivers – 60.2

Tony Romo – 61.3

Aaron Rodgers – 63.6

Donovan McNabb – 57

All have career completion percentages over 60, most well over other than McNabb.

So I can fairly criticize him as long as I have some statistical clout to do so, and comparing him to the 12 Qb’s who were in the playoffs this year, the closest lowest season completion % to his was 2.5% So as I said, and I think rightfully so, we better have a great defense and a complete team around 5, because more than likely, were looking at best at Donovan McNabb, who has 0 Super Bowls.

My main point of the whole thing, and I have reiterated this all year, is that accuracy is not learned trait. Not fumbling while running backwards, throwing it out of bounds, when to run, when not to run, better reading of defenses are all learnable traits, being accurate as a thrower is not. He wasn’t accurate in college, showed no signs of being accurate in his first year, and if that’s any indication of things to come int he future, we better be stacked everywhere else.

Sorry for the diatribe! Do love the back and forth though Mike. Your comments are always appreciated.
