Bud Goode, legendary football statistician who is more educated than you will ever be: "The single most meaningful independent statistic in pro football is Yards Per Pass Attempt Differential." [This is a slightly modified version of Y/A that includes how defenses do against the OPPONENT'S yards/attempt...which even further shows how important it is]
But yeah, you know more about football than Bud Goode. How dare I question the almighty butthead aka 216.
