It's certainly a good place to be but it isn't as rare as it seems. Today's QB's benefit from a lot of rules in their favor. 5.0 TD%/2.5 INT% for example has been accomplished 30 different times in just the last 3 years.
It's still comparatively rare, even these days, because that's a CAREER stat, and he and Wilson are the only modern era young qbs who have done that for their
careers so far. And that's even averaging in his bad rookie season, where he got a 2.4% TD percentage and a 3.8% INT percentage. (In comparison Wilson's worst season was 3.8% TDs/ 2.0% INTs in 2016).
Having said that, it's no accident though that all 5 of those qbs are currently active, in the era of the AirBall game.

That cuts both ways though. Goff's career is less than 3 years right now so it isn't particularly fair to put his relatively small sample size up against guys with 10 times as many attempts. If we looked at just the last 3 years for all QB's, I'm sure the list would be longer than 5.
