Even for someone like myself who can't get enough data to crunch, this was a bit overwhelming. Nonetheless, I found it fascinating. Basically, it's a breakdown of NFL quarterbacks in attempts/completions by the distance of the pass. I thought this might be interesting in light of the ongoing discussion of Ian Book's struggles with the deep ball. I don't think it provides any clear answers to his situation, but there is food for thought. If nothing else, there are some interesting stats for DeShone Kizer (e.g., good on deep throws, bad in red zone). It's also interesting to note some of Tom Brady's stats.

Feel free to debunk if flaws are detected. Sample size might be one obvious concern.
