The Chicago Bears had two quarterbacks nearly split attempts this year with Mitchell Trubisky passing 297 times and Nick Foles attempting 312, and with them each getting sacked 18 times that meant Foles’ sack percentage of 5.5% narrowly beat out Trubisky’s 5.7%.
But Mitch really improved his sack percentage as the year wore on. In his first three games this season that number was at 7.5%, and that was with Chicago’s number one offensive line, but since getting the starting job back he was only sacked 5.0% of the time in these last 6 games.
The offensive line has stabilized in that time, but Mitch was also was smarter with the ball.
