Statistics Question - % of offense

[sleepy dawg]

This could've been posted in the other thread about Dak/heisman, but it is a bit different...

In looking at just the passing numbers compared to all other QBs this year, Dak doesn't immediately stand out as a clear Heisman candidate. However, I bet if you could see both the total offense and the percentage of the offense that he's contributed for, he would be off the charts.

Does anyone know how to obtain such stats? In particular % of offense accounted for?

Didn't find that info but from heisman.com his 554yards was more than the 13 other sec teams this weekend

So he's accounted for 72.5% of our offense this year.

Obviously, only QBs have a chance to register this high, so just taking a quick look at other QBs in the Heisman race:

Trevone Boykin: 62.2%
Baker Mayfield: 59.3%
Deshaun Watson: 65.0%
Connor Cook: 58.7%
Jared Goff (not an actual Heisman candidate, but considered one of the best in the country): 65.7%

I think it's safe to say Dak either leads the country or is among the top 2-3, and he's certainly the leader among the top guys.

For a comparison, last year he accounted for 66.4% of our total offense, even though he had more yards. Obviously Josh Robinson accounts for that difference.
