STACKED’s take
Watson's 2.4-second pocket presence and 36 bad throws make him vulnerable to Steelers' pass rush with rookie OL.
On passing downs, Watson is averaging 2.4 seconds of pocket presence on average. He has just three throwaway passes in seven games, which is a remarkable stat indicating he holds the ball looking downfield. Watson has an excellent on-target ratio of 70.5%, but the majority of those numbers come from the pocket. When the pocket collapses, Watson is still looking downfield to throw and will run if necessary; that is when he does the least amount of damage, as evidenced by his 36 bad throws so far. He has endured the fourth-most pressures with 67, so teams are regularly getting near him. The Steelers have the horses to put good pressure on Watson on passing downs, while Cleveland is starting two rookie offensive linemen, making Watson vulnerable to pressure.
