Off the top of my head, I disagreed with your conclusion about the RZ statistics, Cutler's career stats, Cutler's deep ball accuracy, and reception perception numbers.StableOfRBs wrote: ↑Thu Aug 31, 2017 6:54 pm Im curious, other than the RZ stats I posted last month what do you think hasn't had context?
RZ statistics has been discussed.
Cutler's end of season stats are not very impressive I agree, but that has a lot to do with badly timed injuries and poor weapons for the meat of his career (I posted some in this thread). He has still been pretty good at feeding his top guys, particularly ones shaped like Parker, so his end of year stats can look like Tannehill's and it can still be an upgrade for Parker.
Cutler's deep ball accuracy being lower than Tannehill's also missed the point people were making about Cutler suiting Parker more. Cutler is more inclined to let his playmaker's make plays in single coverage than Tannehill. That suits Parker's game more, I think.
For Reception Perception, Harmon has commented a few times that he doesn't know how to account for players that were playing injured. One example I can remember was Sammy Watkins year 1 vs. year 2 when Watkins had much better RP scores year 2. Parker probably falls into this category considering he wasn't practicing fully for most of last year. RP of last season also wouldn't account for Parker's personal improvements this offseason, which has been a common theme from every group who has watched him practice this year. The coaches and players comments I take with a huge grain of salt, but when the uber-critical Miami sports media starts echoing the same thing, it says a lot for me.
