Have you guys looked at some of the passing #'s that teams are putting up this season? I don't think I've noticed an unreasonable amount of pass int. calls being made (false starts, personal fouls, yes; pass interference, no - but that could just be Buffalo).

But look at the #'s that some QB's are putting up - it's ridiculous. Peyton - 11 TDs, 2 INTs. Culpepper 8 TDs (16 all of last year), 1 INT. McNabb 9 TDs, 1 INT.

In fact, in the entire NFL, only 3 QB's have more interceptions than TDs (McNair, Garcia, and McCown). Last year, there was about 10 that had this ratio.

And guys like Drew Brees (95.5 rating), David Carr (91.8), Joey Harrington (91.1), and Ben R. (86.2) are all starting to put up some serious numbers.

No real point to this ... I've just been hearing about/seeing some amazing games by QB's and was taking a look at the numbers to check it out.
