Martin Truex Jr. Looks To Bounce Back At Atlanta

NASCAR’s return in mid-May was a welcomed sight for everyone, but Martin Truex Jr. seemed to enjoy it about as much as anyone, with five consecutive top-10 finishes to restart the season. That streak was stopped last week, though, with a 20th-place finish at Bristol. While disappointing, a return to mile-and-a-half racing should have everyone […]

Denny Hamlin A Driver To Avoid For Atlanta

Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin will start 10th in Sunday's Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Hamlin and the No. 11 team have been the best out of the JGR stable thus far in 2020, but Atlanta is statistically Hamlin's weakest track. In 20 starts at Atlanta, Hamlin has an average finish […]

Kevin Harvick An Awesome Pick For Atlanta

Stewart-Haas Racing's Kevin Harvick will be the driver to watch as he rolls off ninth for Sunday's Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Daniel Jones Didn't Crumble Under Pressure

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones held up quite well under pressure behind a porous offensive line in his rookie season. His numbers under pressure were comparable to Falcons QB Matt Ryan, which is incredibly impressive. Jones had an 8:6 touchdown-to-interception ratio and nearly 1,000 passing yards while under pressure in 2019. The 23-year-old from […]

Josh Allen Making Strides As A Passer

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was the only player on NFL.com's Nick Shook's list of top-10 QBs under pressure to have a negative completion percentage above expectation in 2019, but his passer rating under pressure (80) and TD-to-interception ratio of 5:2 land him at No. 9. He took three and a half seconds on average […]

He's also one of just two passers on the list to break 1,000 passing yards under pressure. […]

Matt Ryan Nicknamed Matty Ice For A Reason

Nobody in the NFL faced more pressures last season than Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan with 216.

Ryan's passer rating under pressure of 87.9 is the highest […]

Matthew Stafford Consistent Under Pressure

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford played in just eight games last season because of injury, but he remained consistent under pressure when he was on the field. His passer rating of 84.2 while under pressure and his plus-2.2 percent completion rate above expectation are impressive considering that he threw more than 30 percent of his […]

Kirk Cousins Thrives Under Pressure

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has mostly been successful in the NFL when pressured. While he doesn't face as much pressure as he once did, Cousins remains a top-five QB when under duress. His passer rating (91.5) was fifth-best in 2019, his completion percentage under pressure (58.1) was fourth-best and his completion percentage above expectation […]
