Is there a way to see how many screen passes have been thrown by each team this year? (alien.top)

I feel like many teams’ fans complain their playcallers are calling way too many screen passes. So I was wondering who has the right to complain the most.

This is awesome. I wonder how different the rates would look based on n_passingplays.

Good question! Re-ran it to only include pass plays:

Thank you!

It's so interesting that everyone feels really strongly that the Bears would be at the top of the list. As a Jags fan, did you imagine the Jags being at the top of the list?

Is this actually accurate? The Bears ran 13-15 (varying reports) on Monday night alone. I find it hard to believe they only ran 25 more throughout the other 11 weeks of football.
