After Drew Lock’s and Sam Darnold’s performances on Sunday, Drew Lock is now the worst starting quarterback in the NFL. There are 31 qualifying QBs and Lock is 31st in terms of passer rating. If you prefer QBR, then Lock is only 29th of 31 in QBR (44.5), which is currently better than Nick Foles (44.0) and Sam Darnold (35.6). Lock is also 31st in completion percentage, interception percentage, on target percentage, and bad throw percentage. Yep, dead last in those four stats as well.
This got me thinking about two things:
- Who was the worst starting QB in the league each year going back 20 years?
