Pride Of Detroit on Malik Willis
From the article
It hasn't been a great start to the year for Malik Willis in his new home, but it's hard to blame him given the supporting cast.
STACKED’s take
Willis' slow start (26th passer rating) is mitigated by poor supporting cast.
Malik Willis has had a slow start in Miami (26th in passer rating at 79.7, 20th in yards per attempt at 6.9, 23rd in dropback EPA at 0.014), but the source notes it's difficult to blame him given his supporting cast: an extremely young receiving corps, new offensive system, and imbalanced offensive line (left side strong with Patrick Paul 14th in pass blocking, right side a disaster with Austin Jackson dead last). However, Willis shows interesting advanced metrics: third-highest average depth of target (9.2) and first in deep ball percentage (16.4%, above Jordan Love), though he also ranks third in time to throw (3.05), suggesting he holds the ball too long given Miami's second-highest sack rate (10.3%).
