2005 Passing Attempts Per Game
Everyone knows who produced fantasy points and who didn't. We're looking here for foundational stats that enable us to better assess whether bottom-line production was properly supported. If not, we revise 2006 rankings upward or downward depending on the stength or weakness of the supporting statistic.
Here is the self-explanatory, but often overlooked pass attempts per game. This is a key stat for yardage leagues. If the numbers are likely to differ dramatically in '06, we'll say why in our rankings.
