Jared Goff's Pass Touchdowns of 264 compared to Alex Van Pelt's 16 represents a 1550% advantage — dramatically better than their counterpart in this critical category. Alex Van Pelt falls 89.3% below the career average of 150 in this category while Jared Goff exceeds it. It is the single most decisive number in this comparison and the clearest statistical argument for Jared Goff's edge.

The most competitive category in this matchup is Completion %, where Alex Van Pelt posts 54.9% against Jared Goff's 65.9% — a gap of just 20%.

In any debate, Completion % is the statistical ammunition for the Alex Van Pelt side.

Quarterback evaluation in the modern NFL weighs passing efficiency heavily alongside raw yardage totals. Passer rating, completion percentage and touchdown-to-interception ratio paint a more complete picture than any single statistic alone.

Jared Goff wins this head to head comparison decisively — 6 categories to 1. The 1550% gap in Pass Touchdowns alone makes a compelling case, but the consistency across multiple categories confirms Jared Goff's statistical superiority in this NFL career comparison.
