I'm sure this is bound to attract the foreseeable "who cares", but God knows we've had many worse threads posted here. That said, if you don't care about this topic, save us all snide comments and just move on.
This isn't completely random, it's related to a discussion from another thread but because of the site's formatting I wanted to make it more presentable so I decided to put it here. I also wanted to have a discussion dedicated to this topic so that we can come back to it or add to it later as needed for comparison purposes for other similar quarterbacks since it is the widely accepted belief here that Pryor is the type of QB that Michigan needs.
I'm not really trying to make a point with this data, but rather just found it interesting. Obviously it's arbitrary without comparison to another player, so if someone can come up with a comparable player to Pryor I'll do it (just give me a few hours).
This data is presented by drive and it is limited to drives where only Pryor played QB. In other words, drives where Pryor and Boeckman split time are not included.

Obviously feel free to comment or add more data.
