2. ANDY DALTON, NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
67.6 Passing Grade Under Pressure
In relief of Jameis Winston, Dalton has thrown for just under 190 yards on 33 pressured pass attempts. His 6.1% big-time throw percentage on such plays is a top-10 mark, as his 13.0-yard average depth of target.


Despite his limited mobility, he's able to make solid plays while under pressure.

quote:

Since Dalton took over in Week 4, this offense has been dominant, with the 4th-best Drive Quality in the NFL, 6th-highest EPA, and best Success Rate in the league. And this is every bit a function of Dalton looking like a terrific QB.


quote:

• Additional stable metrics in which Dalton is top 5 include:

· PFF grade on early downs

· PFF grade without play action

· Avoiding negative plays.

• There is little evidence from 2022 to suggest that Dalton’s play is fluky and unsustainable.

Most of the Winston stans have now disappeared. And the Dalton is a garbage journeyman narrative so many tried to tell me.

Crazy to think people actually thought it’s harder for a quarterback that was actually pretty good but not great in his younger years to find his magic again than it is for a quarterback that was really never good to get good after 7 years.

But here we are.

I definitely understand the concern of Dalton never winning a playoff game(which I would consider a HUGE success for this season)....but he did take them to 5 straight playoffs. That's something not even we could do with Brees.

Winston's best season came with 30 interceptions.
