It was reportedly more stealthy than the f22, but was not as maneuverable.
It wasn’t that much stealthier and both meet requirements for stealth. I believe they also both met maneuverability. The difference is that Lockheed had a much more complete and functional prototype and Northrops weapons bay had significant doubts surrounding it.
People love to play the “what if” game and suggest that in every historical aircraft competition the choice not taken was “actually” superior but it often just isn’t the case.
