Sam Darnold throws for 280 yards, 2 touchdowns in Jets' win on Sunday
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold completed 24 of 30 passes for 280 yards with 2 touchdowns and an interception in a win over the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday.
What It Means:
This was probably Darnold's best game since the season opener against Detroit. His only real blemish was an underthrown interception last in the first quarter, but aside from that, he picked apart the Colts. Indianapolis came into the game ranked 30th in passing success rate allowed (53.1%), but Darnold posted a mark of 65.6% which led all quarterbacks in Week 6.
Darnold posted 19.0 FanDuel points, which was the 14th highest total among quarterbacks in Week 6. He is averaging 7.5 yards per pass and has thrown 9 touchdowns and 7 interceptions this year.
