How can you not care about the comeback stat? Look how many games we see every week with teams coming back in the 4th quarter for wins. I'm not saying Kyle should win all thise games but with the talent he's had most years hiis record in games like that sould be better. Maybe .500 or at least .300. 9-21 wouldn't be great but it sure looks better than 1-29.
Because there are too many variables at play. We've seen QB's play like crap, the team falls behind but then finally figures it out and he gets a comeback stat. There are comebacks because the other team giftwraps the victory with turnovers, penalties, etc.....in fact, pretty much every QB benefits from these plays happening, but he gets the credit. The QB's team can play lights out defense to keep the game scoring low, and finally the QB wakes up, puts a drive together to get a comeback.
It's not a nothing stat, because having an elite level QB who can play above the x's and o's, and 'carry' teams will most certainly be beneficial. The KS comeback stat looks ridiculous, but I'm sure if you check the records of all the HC's and that stat, it ain't gonna look pretty. Having a Mahomes or an Allen makes up for it....a lot.
