Hmmmm

It's Wentz's completion percentage that drives that down. He goes downfield more often, but he has one of the lower completion percentages in the league. Complete fewer gives you more attempts that go for 0 yards and drags the average down. Heinicke was at 65% last year, Wentz at 62%.

If you care to look at the stats look up air yards per target. That will probably show Carson trying to go deeper.

But look at the INT numbers and the TD numbers that's really what you need to know. Taylor might be completing more, but those throws are still ending up short of the sticks more often and still resulting in either more punts or more TO's than Wentz has.

More of Wentz's drives end up in the end zone. That's the ultimate stat for a QB.
