does anyone have a subscription to this site? That article was getting really juicy lol!!
here’s an excerpt:
As well as grading every player on every play of every game, PFF has also charted quarterback pressures allowed. A pressure occurs whenever the quarterback is in danger of getting sacked and thus has to stop going through his progressions, either by leaving the pocket or getting rid of the ball in a hurry.
The pressure percentage is a much better metric to evaluate offensive line play because it is more of a measurement of how often the offensive line gets beaten. However, our own Eric Eager has recently found that, even for pressure rates, the quarterback is more in control more than one might think, so it’s still not a proper measurement for offensive line play.
