Quote:Leaving out the Colta because I don't have a way to break it down by half currently


Henne in games 1 and 2 has a combined 26 first downs.


Bortles in games 4 and 5 has 33.


I can't find 3rd down conversion numbers by individual game at the moment.


It should be noted Henne only had 8 first downs total against Was. And we did get 2 more first downs than the Chargers did.


With Henne, we also had 454 total yards his first 2 games while Blake has 562. Again, these are all leaving out the split of the Colts game which would skew these even further towards Blake.


There's no doubt out offense is much better now. Pit was Blake's worst performance yet and it's still only about 60 yards and a couple first downs shy of Henne's best performance at Philly.

 

Thanks a lot for all these stats and #'s.

 

I just wanted to kind of compare what BB is doing now with the same team that Henne was doing, when he was in there.

 

You are right, if you add in the Colts stats and #'s (Henne-0 points/BB-17 points) the #'s would even be better for BB.

 

There's no question that the offense is better with BB in there.

 

We already know what Henne is after seeing him play for 7 years in the NFL, the last 2 plus with the Jags.

 

We don't know what BB is after only seeing him play for 2 1/2 GAMES.
