Dinking and dunking to success? NFL QBs are using short, quick passes at a record pace
Briefly

Sean McDermott learned from caddie Ted Scott that PGA star Scottie Scheffler's strategy of hitting 'singles' resonates with NFL quarterbacks adapting to defensive schemes.
Josh Allen now embraces a strategy of short, quick passes instead of deep throws, adapting to the NFL's changing defensive schemes aimed at eliminating big plays.
Statistical data shows that quarterbacks in the NFL are increasingly favoring short passes, with a record 31% of Allen's targets being at or behind the line of scrimmage.
The trend of short passes is reflected in league-wide passing stats, with only Gardner Minshew throwing for at least 250 yards in each of the first two games.
