Tougher Pass Defenses? I'd say they were pretty similar, really.
By DVOA, the average ranked Pass D Tyrod faced was 18.5. Compared to 16.9 for Wentz.
By Passing Yards, the average ranked Pass D Tyrod faced was 12.9. Compared to 18.8 for Wentz.
By Passing TDs, the average ranked Pass D Tyrod faced was 16.9. Compared to 15.3 for Wentz.
They also had games against 5 common opponents (BAL, SEA, CIN, PIT, CLE).
Tyrod in those games: 93 Completions, 136 Attempts, 968 Yards, 68.4% Completion, 7.12 YPA, 4 TD, 3 INT, 32 Rushes, 144 Rush Yards, 1 Rush TD. Ratings were 79.9, 90.8, 70.9, 100.1, and 105.2 respectively.
Wentz in those games: 126 Completions, 215 Attempts, 1,275 Yards, 58.6% Completion, 5.9 YPA, 7 TD, 6 INT, 11 Rushes, 32 Rush Yards, 1 Rush TD. Ratings were 52.7, 61.2, 58.2, 125.9, and 101.0 respectively.
In looking at the stats, it shows what we know. Tyrod was more steady and efficient, Wentz had major ups and downs and significantly more attempts. Again, on the year Wentz played in 1 more game than Tyrod, and he threw 171 more passes for 1 less TD, 8 more INTs, and 759 more yards.
For me this year will be very interesting for Wentz. The Eagles went and upgraded his weapons, so it will be fun to see how he adjusts and if he takes the next step.
