A really interesting monologue by Keim where he tosses out some passer rating and sack statistics as they relate to time in the pocket and talks about the possibility of committing to Griffin this year with upgrades in the line, TEs and backs:
How to make Robert Griffin III a pocket passer - Washington Redskins Blog - ESPN
The jist is that Griffin had a passer rating of about 70 when he had 2.5 seconds or more. He says that more time doesn't necessarily equate to being more effective.
He also said that 21 of his 33 sacks came after 2.5 seconds or more.
There was some passionate discussion a few weeks ago comparing sack rates, passer rating, and interceptions between Griffin and Cousins.
The sack stat, I believe is a lot more concerning than the passer rating with Griffin's tendency to get hurt badly.
I'm really curious about the "why" on both.
I'm guessing there weren't a ton of 7 step drops called last year. I wonder how many were broken plays.
Thoughts?
