So I was reading a blurb on Nex Gen stats, and this one came up (a bit surprising to me)
"Speaking of Packers wideouts, Doug Baldwin has supplanted a drop-prone Randall Cobb as the league's most productive receiver out of the slot. All six of Baldwin's receptions for 145 yards and three touchdowns versus the Steelers came from the slot. He now leads all receivers with 662 yards out of the slot, while posting the highest yards-per-catch average (14.71) among players with at least 40 percent of their snaps in the slot. With Jimmy Graham out for the season, the Seahawks will need that Russell Wilson-to-Baldwin connection to continue firing on all cylinders."
So I knew he was having a better season than last year, and he's been coming on the last couple of games, but with the OL woes and Wilson's struggles the first half of the year, I didn't really think anything about our run first offense would be ranked in the top for passing.
I didn't see it here, but I know Doug is also near the top of the league in catches per target and least amount of drops.
