First 5 games of 2023: 74.4% completion, 294 yards per game, 11 TD, 0 INT
Last 8: 63.7% completion, 236 YPG, 10 TD, 6 INT
The last eight games were pretty much exactly in line with his 2022 performance: 64.8% completion, 210 YPG, 14 TDs, 7 INT
And that's largely been the case again this year. He's a game manager who is feeling the pressure (whether from himself, their playcalling, or something else) to be more than that.
There were a couple interesting notes in this RockM about their playcalling/attempts thus far that maybe lends to Brady's struggles:
- Attempting about half as many screens (usually a big way to get Luther touches)
- Slight decrease from last year in play action attempts
- Increase in throwing in the middle of the field 10+ yards (the area they target the least in Kirby/Drink's system)
- Last year he attempted 21 total passes between the hashes beyond 10 yards. He's already thrown 11 through 4 games and only completed 3 of them (none beyond 20 yards)
