They all have good focus and reliable hands, and that allows them to take advantage of his ability to get the ball anywhere he wants without needing them to be able to beat coverage on their own.

I agree. Maye's been terrific except for a few weird blips (start of the Bengals game, second half against Falcons and Bills). Capitalizing on weak opposition is what superior quarterbacks are supposed to do. He has.

Why not both? Those guys have made some objectively difficult catches. But there is SOMETHING about how Maye throws ball, particularly long throws. The ball itself just looks very easy to catch. The arc and spin? No doubt Maye has elite touch. Would spread credit 40% receivers, 60% Maye.

Explanation four : Doug Marrone is COTY material.

Having watched all of the games it is definitely No.2.

How much of CPOE do you credit to the QB? Obviously a catchable ball still has to be thrown, but even still the receivers have to make the play. This is not in regards to Drake Maye but CPOE has always felt a more receiver focused stat to me. Joe Burrow usually ranks high cause Chase and Higgins

3) variance

2 of those 3 receivers are well over 30. Seeing them have seasons above the expectation, when we know who they are very well, is also more likely to be on the QB then on the receiver.

(Maye is a star/having a great season regardless)

you said this more thoroughly than I was about to. (Also, those 3 have dropped VERY few passes.)

Hey still time to change your MVP vote to Mitch Trubisky…… Did you see how he dominated the Jets?
