You only point out the ones that he dropped, what about the ones that he caught and gained no yardage on??Baseman said:dnc said:
PFF has some decent ideas but this tweet is exactly why they're mostly shit. Percentage of dropped targets is a completely worthless statistic. If the QB misses you by 5 yards and you never had a chance at the ball that counts as a target that wasn't dropped. As evidenced by Pettis having 53 catches, but 72 targets.
Drop percentage is a worthwhile stat. It requires some subjectivity (determining if a ball was dropped or not isn't an exact science), but has value. But only if you're finding the percentage of balls that could have been caught that were dropped. In this case, Pettis caught 53 of 54 catchable balls (per PFF's tracking). That's damn good, and deserves to be applauded.
1 drop in 72 targets could not be more meaningless.

I had an epiphany watching the Oregon game the other day, that Mi Chico is Mickens with the ability to run forward after the catch.dnc said:

Mickens was great at the bubble screen for -2 yards to set up 3rd and 12.

Pettis' snag of an errant Browning pass in the end zone at arizona justifies his scholarship, by itself.

Was it for sure errant though? I think he was throwing to Pettis.Passion said:Pettis' snag of an errant Browning pass in the end zone at arizona justifies his scholarship, by itself.

Pretty sure it was to the guy (Chico?) behind Pettis and DP jumped up and snagged it.Gladstone said:

I'm a relatively big doog for Pettis - he always reminded me a bit of Steve Largent. Great hands, odd movement style, but sneaky fast and does really well in space and at crunch times.
NOT SAYING HE'S LARGENT DON'T TWIST. -
Who is going to replace John Ross?
