From your previous post, I knew Bortles basically wasn't getting it done. This helps a bit in terms of determining how garbage the stats really are.

I'd be interested to see how a guy like Matt Stafford would rank. He does have some 4th quarter comeback wins. But his career record is somewhat poor at 46-54. Although if you throw out his first year after joining an 0-16 team it's 44-46 which is mediocre. He's thrown for huge yardage, I would guess much of that is also 4th quarter yardage. But how much of it mattered?

In Bortles case...I think he's a good fantasy guy, and as a fantasy owner of his, you do get excited when you see the Jags down 27-0 at the half.
