Zach Wilson has been under a bunch of pressure as a passer this season, but how much pressure, and how has he performed compared to other QBs when pressured and when kept clean? NB. Where rankings are listed, I have only considered the 33 QBs with over 150 dropbacks.

UNDER PRESSURE (43.3% of dropbacks: 3rd-most in the league)

  • Completion rate = 44.7% (26th of 33)
  • YPA = 4.5 (29/33)
  • TDs = 0 (T33/33)
  • INT = 1 (T3/33)
  • ADOT = 7.8 (T31/33)
  • Adjusted completion rate (subtract throwaways and drops) = 65.8% (16/33)
  • Sacks = 31 (32/33)
  • NFL passer rating = 53.8 (25/33)

KEPT CLEAN

  • Completion rate = 68.2% (29/33)
  • YPA = 6.8 (26/33)
  • TDs = 5 (T23/33)
  • INT = 4 (T18/33)
  • ADOT = 7.8 (T11/33)
  • Adj. completion rate = 75.3% (T29/33)
  • Sacks = 0 (T1/33 - only 3 QBs have been sacked while kept clean, all once each)
  • NFL passer rating = 87.2 (29/33)

    Here are some time to throw stats for ZW (again, all rankings are among the 33 QBs with over 150 dropbacks):

    • 2.95 sec average time to attempt (i.e., throw/sack/scramble) (7th-longest)
    • 2.74 sec time to throw (9th-longest)
    • 3.58 sec time to sack (11th-longest)
    • 40.5% of dropbacks with attempt under 2.5 sec (5th-lowest rate)
    • NFL passer rating on passes <2.5 sec to attempt = 96.9 (13th-best)
    • NFL passer rating on pass plays with >2.5 sec to attempt = 58.0 (3rd-worst)
