Retzlaff has a better TD/INT Ratio than Ty Detmer did his Heisman Year

True. Seems much easier to forget when you throw for 450 yards and 4 tds a game though.

And he had 7.2 yards per play this year, more than Sark's 7.0 his junior year.

Great now compare short passes, the easiest in football, that’ll explain a lot.

The 1st half of the season was good. The second half fell off a cliff. I think

And Detmer never had a defense half as good. A lot of long INTs were virtual

I can’t believe we are comparing Jake to Ty. It’s absurd and completely unfair

Why so sensitive? It’s a stat and it is very interesting
