Warren Moon's Pass Touchdowns of 291 compared to Zach Wilson's 23 represents a 1165.2% advantage — dramatically better than their counterpart in this critical category. Zach Wilson falls 84.7% below the career average of 150 in this category while Warren Moon exceeds it. It is the single most decisive number in this comparison and the clearest statistical argument for Warren Moon's edge.

The most competitive category in this matchup is Completion %, where Warren Moon posts 58.4% against Zach Wilson's 57% — a gap of just 2.5%. Zach Wilson can point to this as evidence that the overall comparison is closer than the final 6-1 tally suggests. In any debate, Completion % is the statistical ammunition for the Zach Wilson 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.

Warren Moon wins this head to head comparison decisively — 6 categories to 1. The 1165.2% gap in Pass Touchdowns alone makes a compelling case, but the consistency across multiple categories confirms Warren Moon's statistical superiority in this NFL career comparison.
