Lamar Jackson making questionable decisions

I'd say footwork can make a difference.  To put a number on it?  Who knows.

I'd also say decision making and play calling can make a very big difference.  Those two things can be coached.  Again - not easy to put a number on it.

Accuracy is simply completion percentage.  That takes no account for whether or not the right read was made or whether he forced the ball into a low percentage, high risk coverage situation.  Allen has been guilty of those things (risk taking, gunslinging.)  If making the proper reads and implementing higher percentage plays into the playbook, I think there is room to improve.

What was bad about the pro day though were how far off the short throws to the backs were.  I still think he bulked up for the pro day to look good during the "eye test" and that affected him.  Though, it's still a real question based on his body of work (and not just the pro day.)
