Yeah, there's something weird. Was it 2015 where it seemed like there were an unusual number of almost-sacks? This feels the same this game. Other than the picks, few of the plays are *maximized*. Maybe instead of 2nd and 8 it's 2nd and 6.

Or the one sack Stanford did manage to scrounge up. Palma misses his first shot at him, so Darnold scrambles and losses 1 yard instead of 5. A little thing but illustrative.

Darnold is good at that.  He moves in the pocket really well.  And of course, we haven't had a lot of clean shots at him; their OL has mostly limited our chances to even get to the backfield, so our denominator is pretty small.
