Less ‘hero ball,’ more intermediate passes key to Lock’s improvement

George Chahrouri of Pro Football Focus joined Broncos Country Tonight earlier this week to talk about a recent PFF article by Sam Monson that wasn’t too high on Lock’s potential to get it together this season but didn’t rule it out, either.

Admittedly, PFF hasn’t been all that kind to Lock - or the Broncos (as Ryan Edwards loves to joke with Chahrouri) - and Monson’s article points out that by PFF metrics, Lock had an adjusted completion rate of 68.7% in 2020, which ranked 40th out of 42 quarterbacks.

But a lot of fans like to point to Josh Allen’s adjusted completion rates his first two years - Allen was one of the least accurate quarterbacks in the league featuring a 64.
