What Is Pressure to Sack Ratio?
Pressure to Sack Ratio (P2S %) measures the percentage of a quarterback's pressures that result in a sack, calculated as sacks divided by total pressures. This NFL player stat is the best complement to Sack Rate for evaluating quarterback performance under duress — it accounts for how often a quarterback is pressured and how frequently he avoids being brought down once pressure arrives. A lower ratio reflects a quarterback who consistently escapes or neutralizes pressure, while a higher ratio shows pressure converting to sacks more often. In NFL team stats, this metric helps separate mobile, pocket-aware passers from those who struggle once protection breaks down.
