His 68.4 passer rating is the lowest among quarterbacks with at least four starts this season... His accuracy has been equally concerning... painfully slow processing and decision-making, both of which have been consistently poor.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Willis's 68.4 rating and 58.5% accuracy are league-worst; slow processing and deep-ball reliance are core issues.

Through 5 games, Willis has posted a 68.4 passer rating (lowest among QBs with at least four starts), 58.5% on-target accuracy (league-worst), 849 yards, 2 TDs, and 4 INTs. The source attributes his struggles to painfully slow processing and decision-making, erratic footwork (frequently throwing off his back foot), holding the ball an average of 2.93 seconds, and over-reliance on deep throws (21% of passes are 20+ yards despite only 20% completion rate on deep attempts). Despite context around receiver injuries and offensive line issues, the source concludes his performance has been below what is needed to compete.
