Hmm, I have to concur with those who are pointing out that covered "drops" typically get described as "failure to secure". The problem might be that incomplete passes are called "drops" by default, when many times the receiver hasn't turned around, or unable to fully get to the pass(from what I see in replays). In the NFL, sometimes the pass is behind the player, or too low, or just out of range despite getting a hand on it.
And to be fair, NFL players get plenty of drops. http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/drops/2015/
In fact, while a minor tweek could be probably be used, I don't think GLB2 numbers are far off from NFL drop rates(from the box scores I've seen). http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/team-receiver-drops-percentage/2015/
Simply put, if uncontested catches are worse than covered....why do zones suck so much against the pass in comparison to man defenses?
