Roethlisberger Completions Report: Updated Through Week 5

Completion Percentage by Coverage Shell

After 99 total passing snaps against Man (Cover 0, Cover 1, and Cover 2-Man) Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has completed only 55.6% of his passes, compared to 72.3% after playing 94 snaps against Zone (Cover 3, Cover 4, and Cover 2-Zone).

Completions/Attempts: Cover 2 Zone (16/21), Cover 3 (47/66), Cover 4 (5/7), Cover 0 (5/8), Cover 2 Man (15/27), Cover 1 (35/64) For the record, Roethlisberger’s attempts against Cover 4 were actually against a Quarter-Quarter-Half coverage but I record it as Cover4 since he threw to the Quarters side of the field
