Grade Breakdown

What do these mean?

Why 1.9?

Love's grade is near the bottom of the league mainly because he completed far fewer passes than expected, ranking last among 27 QBs. His per-play value, success rate and win probability numbers were close to average-ish and made little difference. The sample is small, just 3 games and 132 dropbacks.

Holding it back

  • Completion percentage over expected was -10.1 points, 27th of 27, the one factor that pulled the grade down a lot.
  • Week 1 vs MIN, Q4: his pass short middle intended for Watson was intercepted by Pierre (-6.6 expected points).
  • Week 3 vs ATL, Q4: his pass short middle intended for Smith was intercepted by Watts (-4.3 expected points).
