2021 Passing Plus/Minus: A Tale of Two Kyler Murrays

NFL Offseason - Our annual review of the passing game continues with our look at 2021 plus/minus stats, where the changing of the guard continues. Drew Brees dominated completion efficiency stats in the 2010s, with only Philip Rivers and Matt Ryan posting even 50% of Brees' plus/minus totals in the decade. Well, Brees and Rivers are gone now, and Ryan is well on the back side of his career, so we're looking for the Drew Brees of the 2020s—the passer who will lead the league in completions over expectation. You might be tempted to look at the top of the DYAR leaderboards and assume that we'll be celebrating Patrick Mahomes, or Josh Allen now that he's past his rookie struggles, or the last hurrahs of great players such as Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers.
