Charting
Where Murph's plays went: throw and catch spots, air yards and yards after the catch, read from the play-by-play
Where he's targeted20 targets charted
The play-by-play names the defender on breakups, interceptions and tackles, but not the man in coverage on every throw, so true times-targeted isn't in the text. Coverage plays is the closest stand-in; exact targets come from hand charting.
2025 charting · South Carolina
2025 season. ESPN's play-by-play only has throw and catch spots for part of 2025 (2 of Murph’s games here), so treat the maps as a sample.
