C.J. Stroud is playing the best football of his career six weeks into the 2026 season.
He hasn't just returned to his rookie-year form, he's leveled up 🧵
Stroud has recaptured what made him great as a rookie:
- Excelling from a clean pocket
- Throwing deep and connecting (14.6% deep target rate ranks 8th)
- Targeting and producing in the middle of the field (+0.41 EPA per play ranks 11th)
- Limiting turnovers
Quarterbacks who avoid sacks under pressure the most (min. 100 dropbacks):
Dak Prescott: 7.0%
Brock Purdy: 8.2%
Kirk Cousins: 9.2%
Bo Nix: 9.3%
Patrick Mahomes: 9.7%
Prescott is on pace to match Josh Allen (2024) for the lowest pressure-to-sack ratio since 2016.

Carnell Tate's 26.7% target share through 6 weeks ranks 12th among receivers, per @SumerSports
His target share this year is the 5th most for a rookie WR through 6 weeks of a season since 2022
George Karlaftis signed a huge extension with Kansas City. His pressure numbers have always been high, but they haven't resulted in many sacks.
So what matters more: pressures or sacks?

Spencer Fano didn't allow a sack or a QB hit vs. Baltimore...
but the data tells a different story:
- HIGHEST PRESSURE RATE ALLOWED (13.2%)
- 5 PRESSURES on 38 pass-block snaps
of all tackles with 20+ pass-block snaps in Week 6.
Watch them below.
Nobody’s winning without extra rushers more than George Karlaftis.
Through Week 6, he’s pressured the QB on 22% of non-blitz rushes, the best among qualified edge rushers and about 9 points above the league average (12.9%).
A pressure doesn't need to result in a sack to have a significant impact:
