It's awfully strange to me that the first thing people say about the guy is that he's clutch (again, presumptively based on a single win against a team that collapsed offensively in the 2nd half). Literally every other bit of evidence suggests the opposite.
Say he's an incredible pure passer or brilliant processor if you want. I have a harder time coming up with an obvious rebuttal to that.
But the clutch thing? That one's just strange. There's seemingly little basis for it.

It's been ramped up this year (seemingly). I don't know how consistent that is for his career and i almost think i need to go back and watch those close games to see how what he's done for his career stacks up against what Mahomes and Allen have done in similar situations. 'Ball in hand with a chance to extend or win'. I did that breakdown earlier about supposed clutchness for his career but i didn't really look at it under that fine a microscope. I do know he only has like 6 GWDs in his career so i don't know that previous years are going to look a whole lot different than this year but i'd like to see how it compares to the other 2.
