Is Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph throwing a greater number of short passes this season than quarterback Ben Roethlisberger did last season? That was a question I was asked recently via an email, so I thought it was worth researching now that the Steelers 2019 regular season is at the halfway point.
Perhaps the best way to answer the above question is to look at the pass distances of both quarterbacks via percentages because after all, Rudolph has only played the equivalent of five games this season while Roethlisberger played the first eight last season.
