Buy or Sell: QB yards should be WHERE the completion is made?
I buy... Example: if a WR makes some nifty moves to go the distance, great. However, it's not like the QB threw that ball 80 yards to him. Thus, he should only get credit for where he specifically threw it.

There should be two stats. One the way it is done now. And a second showing true passing yards.
So that means when a quarterback throw the ball "80 yards" and the receiver makes a catch and is pushed out of bounds immediately, the receiver would get credit for the catch and zero yards? Stupid idea. I think that if a QB throw a pass and it goes off the body/hands of his receiver and is intercepted, it should count as a turnover by the receiver, not an interception for the QB.
Selling it faster than Warren Buffett when the stock market crashes. Example...if Tony Romo hits Dez Bryant 15 yards downfield, but he is in a spot where he can take it to the house for a 60-yard TD...Romo shows the ability to get it to him and that should be taken into consideration also.
Sell because it goes both ways. When the QB delivers the ball accurately and the receiver drops it or (even worse) bobbles it resulting in an interception it counts against him.
