Regardless, Raymond would have been an easy 5 yards on first down, so this one is on Caleb... Since he was out of the pocket, Williams could have chucked it out of bounds to avoid the loss in yards, so I got to put this one on the quarterback too... This one is on Williams too. The pocket got a bit muddy, but he didn't need to bail as quickly as he did.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Williams accountable for 3.5 sacks; hesitation, pocket decisions, and early bailouts.

Williams was charged with accountability for 3.5 of the four sacks allowed against Atlanta; on Sack 13, he hesitated on a quick pass to Kalif Raymond (5-yard gain available) and looked to Cole Kmet instead, suggesting uncertainty in timing with receivers; on Sack 14, he set up in the pocket on a play-action that could have had a bootleg and could have thrown out of bounds to avoid the loss; on Sack 15, he bailed too quickly from a muddy pocket and could have thrown out of bounds instead of taking the sack.
