znI know what you meant. But your analysis depends on being let down by the defense (which ought to make the 2014 Dallas game a win for the GB defense since the Boyz had 6 minutes left in the 4th to score).
My point is that those things even out and it would take a special stat for every qb in the playoffs to say whether or not the others just didn't happen to be let down by the defense.
So if he's an exception it would have to be demonstrated.
EITHER WAY
I may be skeptical but you did a lot of work, it's an interesting discussion, you make interesting points, and I appreciate the quality of the discussion.
We just part ways with a different view of whether AR is USUALLY a clutch qb. Which personally I can live with .
BUT...
it's almost game time.
Go Rams. Enjoy the game Max old friend.

thanks, you too zn.
I am actually happy about this analysis. I feel confident that I got it right and I am no longer perplexed at the other analyses that didn't stand up to the eyeball test.
As McVay would say, "it's not for everybody."
I'm not convinced by it. Unless you can compare it to other qbs in the exact same situation, we don't know how many times other qbs "never got the ball back."
All you did was show me that he had GWD in one playoff game and a CB in another and we already knew that from PRF's "comeback games" list.
How does he compare to other qbs with the exact same breakdown?
I would do Brady, Manning, Wilson, Roethlisberger, Brees, and Romo, to name a few.
And my eyeball test of him over the years is that he tends not to come through in those situations.
I;m not all that sure why your eyeball saw it different.
