Question
What team scored on a league-low 18 percent of its pass plays inside the 5-yard line last year? In that part of the field, this team’s quarterback completed only 2 of 11 passes, with 2 TDs. Hint: Typically with this kind of question, it’s not asked unless the answer is surprising or notable (it’s not one of the teams with really crappy offenses).
Answer
Philadelphia Eagles. Jalen Hurts inside the 5 last year completed only 2 of 11 passes, with 2 TDs. He was productive as a runner in that part of the field, of course, but not so much as a passer. Every other team in the league completed over twice as many passes in that area of the field.
