Gavin Ford Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, St. John Paul II got the W thanks in part to Gavin Ford playing the best football he has all season. Ford threw for 323 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.9 yards per attempt.
On the year, Ford has thrown 8 touchdowns while averaging 157.5 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 51.92 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 84.48 passer rating.
