If you're going to be nitpick why a pass was incomplete, you also need to nitpick why an interception happened.
An INT gets dinged on the QB even if the wrong route was ran or the ball was deflected and luckily grabbed by a defender hitting the ground.
Going off metrics is never going to tell the whole story, but you should be able to at least gather some information in much less time spent compared to watching hours upon hours of film.
Is my opinion always right when I toss a number out vs going in super deep to analyze a bunch of film? Usually not.
But if it takes me 5 minutes to pull up a metric and get close, I'm going to go that route since I don't have the time nor interest to go watch a ton of film just for the sake of maybe being slightly more informed.
If a metric/dashboard gives me 90% of the way there, that's "good enough" for me usually.
Not every incompletion is the same either. Think if instead of eating some of the sacks Burrow did he threw it away a bit more, even just 15 times so he's down to 36 sacks (not inconceivable) he's down to 68%.
In the last 2 years Burrow was 65.3% and 70.4%. In the last 2 years Rodgers was 70.7% and 68.8%.
