IDK if you guys all saw the article but it was pretty interesting, speficially the part about pocket passing
http://espn.go.com/blog/seattle-seahawk ... ric-season
A section from the article below
" 118.6 -- Wilson's passer rating on throws from inside the pocket. Not only was that the top mark among this year's group, but no quarterback in the past three seasons has posted a higher number. Wilson completed 72.8 percent of his passes, averaged 8.75 yards per attempt and tossed 31 touchdowns against seven interceptions when he stayed in the pocket. Since Week 11, the numbers are 77.8 percent, 9.90 YPA, 22 touchdowns and one interception. That equates to a passer rating of 145.1. Regardless of what happens in the playoffs, this will be one of the most important things to come out of the 2015 season for the Seahawks. When Wilson has time to sit back in the pocket, he can pick defenses apart. He's shown that ability in the past, but never at such a high level, and it's made the Seahawks extremely tough to defend. If opponents want to try to stay disciplined with their pass rushes and not allow Wilson to scramble, he's perfectly content to hang tight, survey the field and deliver on-target all game long. "
I like the narrative of Wilson being a bad pocket passer his whole career even though whenever I see stats from his pocket passing they are always really, really good..The top QB rating inside the pocket the last 3 years is....AMAZING for a quarterback who is not "a pocket passer"
.There was an article in 2013 comparing him to kaepernick and Wilson had a 100+ QB rating inside the pocket then too.
Anyone have a link or numbers for his WHOLE CAREER inside the pocket instead of just 1-2 seasons.
