I understand that but forget that stat. If you don’t think it’s good then here’s another one. It’s all pointing to the same conclusion.
What is the definition of this referenced stat, if you have a reference.
Time to Throw is essentially meaningless on its own as a stat. As far as release time, Tom Brady was clocked at a ridiculous 2.1. That being said, the article states:
in fact, that 2.17-second average release is the fastest recorded by any quarterback in any gameduring the 2021 regular season or postseason.
As it happens, the NGS defines "quick passes" as ones released in 2.50 seconds or less, which is exactly Brady's average this year. "In rhythm passes" are thrown between 2.50 and 4.00 seconds and "extended passes" take more than 4.00 seconds to be released. On Sunday, 28 of Brady's 37 pass attempts fell into that "quick pass" category, and most of them were quite successful.
