These threads are always dumb. The reason for the "blind" comparison is always the same, just a way to take the statistics out of context to provide a false narrative.
Who did they playing against?
What players did they have on their team?
etc.
The end result is always support for some false narrative.
For example: Manziel and his so called SEC Passing record. It was mostly done against easy competition as they had 4 fluff games and they allowed him to play the games even when they were blowouts. So he would rack up 5 and 6 TD's in these games. But then went and laid dog eggs against better defenses like Florida and LSU, then got straight up lucky vs Alabama.
So you take his stats and make a thread like this, compare him with a QB like McCarron and you end up taking the worse QB, as we saw Cleveland do in the draft.

Who did they playing against?

What players did they have on their team?

Johnny's best game of his career passing yards wise was vs Bama. He went for 562 yards. That aint luck. He also went for 516 vs C0-Big 12 Champs in the Cotton Bowl. Auburn won 12 games in 2013. Johnny went off for 502. ACC Division Champs in the '13 Bowl? Another 455. Should I keep going?
