Yep. I was going to point out that those numbers show Darnold to be a better passer.

It's a dumb stat because it gives too much weight to running QBs and sacks.

Burrow blows everyone out of the water on the passing metrics but gets hugely dinged in the sack which brings his total score down significantly.
