Bradford: anemic inside 10

Posted Apr. 22 at 01:03 AM

Granted there wasn’t much around him, but Sam Bradford sure struggled around the goal line last year. He was historically bad.

Around here, we chart all plays inside the 10-yard line. They’re all cataloged, and then we can sort and compile them in different ways.

According to those numbers, Bradford last year completed only 1 of 14 passes when the Rams were inside the 10. That’s the lowest completion percentage by any quarterback in the last seven seasons. (Probably longer; we don’t have the numbers for before the 2005 season.)

If you want to dip into the unabridged edition, Bradford also was sacked twice last year; those aren’t listed.
