Check out his career advanced passing stats:

Y/A+ 84
Cmp%+ 92
TD%+ 87
INT%+ 109

This pattern holds true without exception for every year of his career. In a vacuum, INT’s are bad of course, but in Bradford’s case it would serve him well to take more risks and go for some big plays. And I don’t think you can blame his conservative play on personnel, because there are plenty of high Y/C players on this list who had weak supporting casts.

Sam Bradford is basically a clone of Jason Campbell. It’s no coincidence that neither QB has ever led a strong offense.

For a QB that is grouped with the Hennes, Sanchezes and Ponders of the world, Bradford’s gotten off easy.
