Among the 33 QBs with enough dropbacks to qualify, Bagent ranks first in the NFL, having been sacked on just 3.4% of his dropbacks. Fields ranks 32nd, the second-worst in the NFL, having been sacked on 12.9% of his dropbacks.
Maybe it’s the game plan, maybe it’s Teven, or maybe…JF1 simply can’t plug the trigger when he needs to.
I mean this definitely makes sense…JF is constantly manipulating the pocket and moving around - making it so much harder on pass protection because their back is towards you so you give leverage back to the pass rusher being able to push off and readjust his rush.
Bagent stays tall and gets the ball out…he just has nothing else to his game aside from check downs. I think if he actually opened up and let it fly these numbers would look a lot worse. Can’t really sit here and say the offense has looked “improved”
