Pick 6 kind of skews things and settling for 6 FG's inside the 30 yard line. Teams will give up 300+ yard passing games every day as long as they are keeping the opposition out of the end zone. If anyone has followed Trevor Harris over the years they would know that he's the master of moving the ball between the 20 yard lines and falling short. He's started two more games than Arbuckle and thrown for a lot more yards, attempted 150 more passes, but has only thrown 3 more TD passes than a guy that hadn't started a game since 2015 prior to this season. He's also benefited from being sacked only 3 times prior to last night which was record pace for fewest sacks. This is why he's not elite and has never been.
