What other things besides drops?
but also factors out those passes that were batted at the line of scrimmage, thrown away, spiked, and even those that resulted from the quarterback being hit in their throwing motion.
That's not really true. We gave Sanchez an elite line and a punishing run game for the first two years of his career. By the time we lost a couple of players and replaced them with slightly less good pieces (or in the case of Wayne Hunter, completely wastes of space) it was reasonably expected that Sanchez might have got a bit better at reading the field and the game, and being responsible with the ball.
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well
Which of the great QBs did what they did with a poor OL? At any point in their career?If you let your line fall apart, or don't have one in the first place, all the QB talent in the world is never going to be enough.
Sure, but the point was that we never gave Sam a serviceable OL and he never developed as a result, and that so far we're on a similar track with Zach. You said we did the same with Sanchez, and we didn't.
Most teams have crappy offensive lines. The best quarterbacks can overcome it go varying degrees. Obviously it is ideal for a young QB to have an effective line though.

Horrible, but he's super mobile. I don't if we can generalize out of his example.
We gave Sanchez a pretty good line his first couple of years. They made the title game. When the line took a downturn, so did his career.Which of the best QBs in their good years overcame crappy offensive lines?
Jets second in the league in total drops with 11. 1st in drops per target. 11.2% of Zach Wilsons targets have been dropped.
My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating
Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about
