From the article

McKee was actually good. He played mistake free ball, didn't have any inaccuracies, and threw the ball over the middle more often than Jalen Hurts has. Since 2024, McKee has thrown the ball between the hashes in the 0-20 air yard range on 43-of-149 dropbacks. That's 29% of his dropbacks, leading to 9.6 YPA and an 86% completion percentage without an interception. That's great stuff. To the point that I think McKee can be as productive as Hurts would've been this year.

McKee's midfield accuracy and efficiency exceed Hurts' baseline; source projects comparable productivity.
