I saw https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/121pvx7/oc_nfl_quarterbacks_of_passes_batted_down/ and it said there wasn't a relationship between quarterback height and how many throws get batted down. Ok, that's interesting but what about the throws that didn't get made because the quarterback didn't think he could throw through/past a defender? Or throws purposefully thrown out of bounds or to nobody for the same reason? I mean, who cares about just what happens at the line of scrimmage? I want my team to win!

So I compared the heights of everyone who passed a ball with how many yards total yards they threw over the season.

One person said, "But you're including backup quarterbacks in that and some of them threw for bupkus." Yup. But when I cut out everyone who didn't throw for a total of at least 1,000 yards during the season, it's still basically the same chart. I just don't have a bunch of small-yarders at the bottom of the chart. In fact, I think it's fair to only look at the 32 main quarterbacks and not include everyone else because there's far more deviation in that small group of 32 than there among the group consisting of everyone else who even attempted a pass, even if they weren't a quarterback.

In any case, Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray aside, in general more height means more passing yards.
