Seahawks vs. Patriots: Which Key Players Could Shatter Their Super Bowl Dreams?
Maye is an accurate QB, but not as much as Darnold, whose 86.9% well-thrown rate led the NFL. His 2.83-second average time to throw is a bit longer than the league average, and Maye takes sacks on 18.2% of his pressured drop backs – higher than the 14.6% league-wide rate for QBs with at least 50 attempts in the regular season.
Darnold takes sacks on just 11.4% of his pressured drop backs, giving his offensive linemen more margin for error than Maye has given Campbell and company.
Either QB could throw an important interception, of course. But Maye is the better bet to throw a cookie to the opposing defense. Darnold hasn’t thrown a pass that has been deemed “pickable” in the Seahawks’ two playoff games. Maye has only thrown two in three games.
