"You know what the difference is between a 60% passer and a 70% passer?" Drew's answer was "Three completions." You get three more completions per game when you're probably going to throw the ball 30 times per game.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Williams' completion rate poised for mid-60s with minor adjustments; three more completions per game needed.

Williams' 58.1% completion percentage in Year 3 is due for improvement; Drew Brees noted the difference between a 60% and 70% passer is just three additional completions per game on ~30 attempts. With positive regression in completion percentage, bad-throw percentage (third-highest in NFL last year), and drop rate (fourth-highest at 5.5%), Williams could reach mid-60s completion rate while maintaining explosive play generation, potentially reaching MVP-caliber performance.
