The entire league is trending upward. Everybody is a dink dunk machine these days. Most really be completing three passes in a row and still punt on fourth down.
A good reason why yards per attempt is a much better efficiency stat than completion percentage; it actually measures output relative to attempts rather than just one binary outcome.
Defenses have largely shifted to a two high look to prevent deep balls. So naturally offenses dink and dunk. That scheme shift is part of the reason points are down this year
65%? Wuuuut?
