And it's actually less depressing after the last few years, which is pretty depressing in and of itself. For a while there Austin Appleby was legitimately something like our second-best post-Tebow quarterback.

 

The stats sure read a lot better than it looked live. Stats say AR had a great game I guess.

 

What a depressing video.

 

I disagree with a few of these, clearly Trask is number 1, I could argue Driskell number 2, he led UF to a 12-1 record in 2012 and should’ve been 13-0 of Jordan Reed holds onto the ball. And, he did it with Will Muschamp as his coach, yes he had a great defense but showed at La Tech he has talent and has had the longest career in the NFL of any of these at least so far. Grier is overvalued and really more of a “what could’ve been situation.”

 

AR didn’t lose game.

 

I didn’t look, once was enough forever

 

Obviously

 

I remember there being drops, watching it again there were 8 or more, 2 of which were wide open TDs. Rough day

 

But he didn't help the situation either

 

Great post, lots of facts to dispel narratives about that game. Some folks already have their minds made up that the Vandy loss was on him, though.

 

Oh goodness that 3rd dunk, he almost took his head off at the rim. AR is an alien!!!

 

The only loss that you could really put on Anthony was KY. If our defense was average we go 8-4 last year, at minimum. Ironically, the defense was pretty good against KY.

 

No losses are his fault because we had a ton of holes. His legs could have made a difference though. One thing that makes me wonder though is all the dropped balls. “Catchable ball” is not something that to me describes AR. Looking at many of the drops, they may be catchable but not easy catches. The great passers make it really easy on their receivers.Pearsal rarely made a catch where he didn’t have to jump or get hit.

 

My rule for receivers has always been if the ball touches your hands you need to catch it

 

That is because Levis is not that guy

 

Kentucky is on him. Every other loss was not his fault. Defense gets tons of blame (as they should) but it overshadows the worst WR group we had since the Zook years

 

But it’s much easier to catch with proper touch and accuracy. AR hurts himself whether he has sure handed receivers or not. Too many hard balls to handle.

 

The receivers may have had a lot of drops, but the real stat that can be tied to him is that AR had the worst number of "uncatchable passes" thrown BY FAR of any QB leaving for the NFL. I'm not where I can search for it, but the data is out there.

If the ball is where it's supposed to be and the receiver drops it, it's on the receiver.

If the ball isn't where it's supposed to be and the receiver is, it's on the QB.

 

There have been many QBs who throw frozen ropes when they don’t have to. There’s a lot to be said for a “catchable ball”
