Alex Tanney vs Brad Johnson: Who Wins on NFL Stats?

This is as close as it gets. Alex Tanney and Brad Johnson split the statistical categories evenly — 3 apiece — making this one of the most genuinely contested QB comparisons in NFL history. When the numbers are this balanced, the debate comes down to which statistics matter most to you.

Brad Johnson's Passing Yards of 29,054 compared to Alex Tanney's 100 represents a 28954% advantage — dramatically better than their counterpart in this critical category. Alex Tanney falls 99.8% below the career average of 52000 in this category while Brad Johnson exceeds it. It is the single most decisive number in this comparison and the clearest statistical argument for Brad Johnson's edge.

The most competitive category in this matchup is Completion %, where Alex Tanney posts 73.3% against Brad Johnson's 61.7% — a gap of just 18.8%. Brad Johnson can point to this as evidence that the overall comparison is closer than the final 3-3 tally suggests. In any debate, Completion % is the statistical ammunition for the Brad Johnson side.

Quarterback evaluation in the modern NFL weighs passing efficiency heavily alongside raw yardage totals. Passer rating, completion percentage and touchdown-to-interception ratio paint a more complete picture than any single statistic alone.

With categories split evenly, this comparison ultimately comes down to which statistics matter most to you. Brad Johnson claims the tiebreaker through Passing Yards advantage — a 28954% edge — but reasonable people can, and do, argue both sides of this NFL debate.
