The 5 Most Efficient Red-Zone Quarterbacks in 2017
Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Passing NEP Per Drop Back – 0.45
Of the top-five quarterbacks in this sample, Aaron Rodgers attempted the fewest passes inside the red zone (36). He was injured for a large chunk of the season, of course, and the Green Bay Packers suffered for his absence.
Despite the limited sample, the uber-efficient Rodgers still managed to dazzle in his time on the field. His 36 red-zone pass attempts brought him 12 touchdowns, good for a dazzling 33.3% rate. He was sacked only once inside the 20 and didn’t throw a single interception.
If Rodgers have stayed healthy, he may have been able to finish atop this list, and Green Bay's season would've surely played out much differently.
