Mac currently ranks #4 in the NFL in "intended air yards" and #3 in "intended air yards per attempt" - that is, essentially how "deep" a ball they're throwing. He ranks fourth in the NFL in "completed air yards" and #3 in "completed air yards per pass attempt".
In other words, suddenly Mac Jones isn't just a dink and dunker. He's pushing the ball downfield to almost the highest degree in the game so far.
He's also 26th in "accuracy" (though I don't know how they measure that). Two spots below (i.e., worse than) him? Josh Allen. LOL.
It makes sense - the further you typically throw downfield, the more likely it is to be an interception. The three interceptions were:
- A pass thrown 15 yards past the LOS over the middle, intended for Parker.
- A pass thrown 16 yards past the LOS in the left corner, intended for Parker.
- A pass thrown 20 yards past the LOS on the right side, intended for Bourne.
Yes he had the one that could/should have been an INT, but, well, it wasn't. So on the three picks, they were all downfield throws, which makes sense. The more you throw deep stuff, the more likely it is for inaccuracy.
