Why the pedigree actually matters here

The fast read on the thing that makes this player more than a generic stat line.

Carson Beck was a real recruiting acquisition, not an out-of-nowhere name, and that matters when a Heisman case starts to form. The card shows a 4-star profile with a No. 254 recruit national ranking lane, which helps explain why voters and media were ready to notice fast once the production showed up.

Advanced Metrics

Usage, value, and opponent-adjusted context.

Usage Value Context
Passing WEPA

Opponent-adjusted passing value. Positive numbers mean the quarterback is adding more value through the air than a neutral peer would in the same environment.

Role share

How much of the offense runs through the quarterback once passing and rushing responsibility are blended together.

Peer percentile

Every percentile is compared against players at the same position and level, so an FBS quarterback is judged against FBS quarterbacks, not the whole sport.

The top tables stick to the stats fans already know from broadcasts and box scores. Advanced context is pushed underneath instead of replacing the basics.
