Sam Darnold’s best game of the year last Sunday means things are looking up in our season long tracking of Darnold’s progress.A few things to keep in mind. All rankings herein (other than the comparisons among the five 2018 first round rookie quarterbacks) are limited to rookie quarterbacks with at least 250 passing attempts in their rookie seasons. Prior to the 2018 season there have been 72 rookie quarterbacks with 250 or more passing attempts in the post merger era. Rate stats (like completion %) reflect actual current numbers for Darnold. Counting stats (like touchdowns or yards) reflect prorated numbers for Darnold assuming he continues to perform at the same level all season. Let’s get to it. Below are a bunch of quarterback metrics, listing the all time rookie leaders for each and showing where Sam Darnold fits assuming he plays at the same level all season.YardsAndrew Luck4374Cam Newton4051Jameis Winston4042Carson Wentz3782Peyton Manning3739...28.

Sam Darnold4.3To provide additional context, we’ll see how Sam stacks up against the 42 qualifying rookie quarterbacks of the past 15 years. The game and its rules have changed so much that comparisons of quarterbacks from 50 years ago to quarterbacks of today are of limited value. Quarterbacks of the last 15 years make for a comparison much closer to apples to apples so to speak. Here is how Sam stacks up against rookie quarterbacks of the last 15 years:YardsAndrew Luck4374Cam Newton4051Jameis Winston4042Carson Wentz3782Dak Prescott3667...23.

Sam Darnold4.3In comparison to his contemporary peers Darnold appears roughly average.He ranks best in touchdowns and touchdown percentage and worst in interceptions and interception percentage compared to his contemporary peers.Next up: how Darnold stacks up against his fellow rookie first round quarterbacks. The counting numbers here are raw numbers, not pro-rated.YardsBaker Mayfield3065Sam Darnold2357Josh Rosen2042Josh Allen1633Lamar Jackson 1022TouchdownsBaker Mayfield21Sam Darnold14Josh Rosen10Josh Allen6Lamar Jackson6InterceptionsSam Darnold15Josh Rosen14Baker Mayfield11Josh Allen9Lamar Jackson3Passer RatingBaker Mayfield92.6Lamar Jackson84.9Sam Darnold72.8Josh Rosen66.3Josh Allen65.5Yards/AttemptBaker Mayfield7.53Lamar Jackson7.00Sam Darnold6.72Josh Allen6.45Josh Rosen6.08Completion PercentageBaker Mayfield63.9Lamar Jackson58.2Sam Darnold56.7Josh Rosen55.7Josh Allen52.2Touchdown PercentageBaker Mayfield5.2Lamar Jackson4.1Sam Darnold4.0Josh Rosen3.0Josh Allen2.4Interception PercentageLamar Jackson2.1Baker Mayfield2.7Josh Allen3.6Josh Rosen4.2Sam Darnold4.3The numbers here show Baker Mayfield to be by far the best of the rookie first round quarterbacks thus far, with Sam Darnold placed largely in the middle of the pack. One glaring issue with Darnold thus far is protecting the ball White Jermaine Kearse Jerseys , as in interceptions Darnold lags in last place among his peers.Finally let’s take a look at the numbers from the perspective of where Darnold ranks with respect to league averages compared to the post-merger rookie quarterbacks. We’re only going to be looking at rates here, not counting stats. Including this year’s qualifying rookies there have been 76 post-merger rookie quarterbacks with at least 250 passing attempts in their rookie year. The number listed next to the names corresponds to the percentage of league average for that player in his rookie year. So, for example, if a QB had a 60 passer rating in a year the league average was 80, his passer rating number here would be 60/80, or 75%. In this way we can compare quarterbacks across the eras on a level playing field, noting how they performed compared to the league in their time.Passer RatingDan Marino125Dak Prescott123Ben Roethlisberger122Robert Griffin III121 Russell Wilson118...53.

Sam Darnold70Here we see that Sam Darnold has been a mostly below average rookie quarterback when measured by percentage of league averages. He is below current NFL average in every major category Jermaine Kearse Jerseys 2019 , and compared to rookies across the years Sam is below average in passer rating and completion percentage, near the absolute bottom in interception percentage, about average in yards per attempt, and above average in touchdown percentage. All in all it has been a mixed bag for Sam’s rookie year compared to rookies since the merger.With the year winding down Darnold has just two weeks remaining to tweak his numbers. His rising performances the last two weeks have begun to push him up the ranks a bit and spark some optimism in the Jets fan base. It would be nice to see him finish the year strong.
