Mason’s accuracy issues compounded the line problems. Weeden helped his line by being more accurate and hitting more on short and intermediate throws. This is reflected in his much higher completion percentage. Mason’s reliance on hitting deep throws is reflected in his yards per attempt/yards per game/etc looking nicer, but also killed a lot of drives. I just know from watching them both I would take Weeden’s steadier arm in crunch time over Mason’s streakier one any day of the week.
