King Colt Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 As I read the statistics on the games yesterday I see a discrepancy on all games. Example":Colts: Passing Yards=345 but under this section is individual stats and the passing is "Luck 31-55-1 362.I see this difference in every game The 362 number is the number written in the game story so why the "345"? It cannot be another player throwing becuase the numbers would be greater than the 362 if the passes were completed. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireJimCaldwell Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 The 362 is the gross yards.The 345 is the net. Gross-minus sack yards. In the NFL sack yards come off the gross passing yards. Now, why they deduct it from the team totals and not the individual QB as well, I have yet to see an answer.In college a sack counts as a rushing attempt and negative rushing yards.

21isSuperman Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 How do INT yards figure into it? If Luck throws for 350 yards and then throws a pick that is returned for 20 yards, do his stats show 330 yards passing or 350? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremecoltsfan300 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 superman: The int has no bearing on passing stats. if u throw 2 ints returned for 40 yards total and threw for 200 yards, then on the stat sheet for the team and the qb will still be 200 yards.
