Recently, Pro Football Focus published an analysis of “unlucky interceptions”, and research shows that Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is the unluckiest passer in the league:
According to PFF grading and charting, just 12 of Burrow’s 35 interceptions have been deemed his fault. Seven have come from a combination of miscommunication, receivers stopping their routes and dropped passes, while 16 have been forced by the defense, either by coverage players breaking up a pass or pass-rushers hitting the Bengals signal-caller as he threw.
9 of Dak Prescott's INTs since 2016 are from drops
