People like to talk about things that are “underrated,” and I often wonder how they arrived at that conclusion. There’s no real measure for it. It’s usually just a gut feeling.But my gut is telling me this: One of the most underrated statistics in the NFL last year was Russell Wilson’s perfect passer rating when throwing to Tyler Lockett.
It’s incredible, really. Wilson completed 57 of the 70 passes hurled Lockett’s way while compiling 965 yards and 10 touchdowns — good for that maximum rating of 158.3.
Since 2002, no other quarterback had targeted a receiver more than 15 times and maintained a perfect passer rating.
