Drew Allar When He’s Blitzed

One of the first things that stuck out when watching Allar this season was how good he seemed to be when the other team blitzed. As it turns out, the numbers back up the eye test, with Allar making defenses pay for sending additional defenders. The PFF stats via Happy Valley Insiders’ Twitter show the damage Allar is doing:

  • Not Blitzed: 43-of-63 (68.3%) for 441 yards, 2 TDs/0 INT
  • Blitzed: 41-of-62 (66.1%) for 462 yards, 6 TDs/0 INT

There’s obviously so much that goes into a quarterback being successful against the blitz — both pre-snap and after the snap.
