Sure, and there's a couple of other things that were meh too. His rushing didn't improve any. But anyone can see that he had a significant upturn last season.
Here's his year-on-year QB Rating (as per wiki) :
2018 - 77.6
2019 - 84.3
2020 - 72.7
2021 - 71.9
2022 - 92.6
Yards per attempt:
2018 - 6.9
2019 - 6.9
2020 - 6.1
2021 - 6.2
2022 - 8.2
INT per game:
2018 - 1.15
2019 - 1
2020 - 0.92
2021 - 1.08
2022 - 0.5
He showed significant improvement, and I imagine that is part of why he got the opportunity here.

So if I don't expect Darnold to complete passes, but he does, then it's over expectation? Nice stat.
