To be a good quarterback in the NFL, you have to be able to perform under pressure.
Making throws from clean pockets with ample time to scan the field and fire is something most quarterbacks do with ease. But when it comes to pressure bearing down on them in the pocket, the ability to keep eyes downfield and make plays under pressure sets apart the top quarterbacks from the rest of the class.
Knowing that, it was a bit surprising to see Pittsburgh Steelers quarterbacks Mitch Trubisky and Kenny Pickett graded out as two of the top three quarterbacks in the NFL under pressure last season, according to Pro Football Focus.
