Coming in at over three-hundred attempts across the season thus far, Easton Cole isn't shy about putting the ball into the air. While he is technically about sixty attempts behind the leader in attempted passes on the season (Dexter Banks II), it's not really that far off - a game or two, maybe? But what I am getting at, the part that sets Easton Cole apart from the pack is his phenomenal quarterback rating, which is an indicator of impressive numbers. The first statistic to discuss is Cole's third-place completion percentage, at 59.2%. That's what you want in a quarterback as a foundation - them landing the ball in their target's hands more than half the time. This allows for more directed, specific game-planning. In addition to Cole's superb completion rating, his efficiency is indicated in his top-of-the-charts quarterback rating (QBR). As I said earlier, this is a representation of positive performance, specifically in the touchdown-to-interception ratio. In this case, Cole has ten touchdowns on the year, thus far, coupled with only 3 interceptions. He is keeping the ball safe, yet managing to put up double digit touchdowns to keep up with other teams. This, to me, is a solid indicator of someone who deserves league-wide recognition.
