Shough is not playing well. In six games played he has seven turnovers, a 1:1 turnover/TD ratio, and a 2-4 record.

The fact you're having to rely on "rushing yards per game" (he is averaging 18, Bryce is averaging 10) here is really telling lmao. I already gave the clear advanced differences. Shough is playing worse than Bryce. You are literally gassing up a worse, 2-4 QB for a rival team and I find that incredibly funny.

Imagine gassing up a 2-4 QB for a terrible division rival with stats worse than our QB in every category except raw yards per game

He played most of another game and lost it. I didn’t count the game with 0 yards (because that would be ridiculous). If I did, his stats would be lower than Bryce.

Through 6 games this guy is 2-4, averaging 202 yards a game with 7 touchdowns and 7 turnovers. His AY/A (5.91) is worse than Bryce (6.31), as are his yards per completion (10.1 vs 10.2). He's worse than Bryce in basically every category except for yards (he's averaging 202, Bryce is averaging 195 this year) and completion percentage (65% vs 63%). Oh, and he's losing two-thirds of his games (2-4). You can't think Bryce is a bad QB and that Shough is good.

There's a ton of people in this thread that would rather we be 0-13 than in the playoffs and it shows.

Looks like Shough is likely going to finish this game 13/20 for 144 yards and one interception.

Tyler Shough looks absolutely terrible today.

For all those who were glazing Tyler Shough (1-3 through 4 starts) - his passing stats with 5 minutes left in the 3rd are: 8/12, 84 yards, 1 interception, 52.1 rating He has 45 yards on the ground and 1 touchdown.

Last week he threw a game-losing pick two after a garbage time comeback padded his stats. I wouldn't consider that "playing well".

“Playing oddly well” He is 1-3

A substantial portion of this fanbase would prefer we win 1 out of every 4 games (which Shough has done) if we threw for 220 yards a game rather than have a winning record and be in the playoff hunt

Totally a coincidence definitely

The fact people are hyping up scrubs like Howell and Lance really indicates just how cosmically unlikely it is anyone but Bryce is gonna start for us next year.

I’ve never seen a group of fans so unhappy to be winning

He was horrific in pass blocking his first few years and only improved recently.

3 TDs and no turnovers + outdueling the MVP favorite is how

Wild how people excuse 3 years of bad to terrible play for Ickey and want a big extension but are mad at even the prospect of a fifth-year option for Bryce

The difference between a turnover and not a turnover actually does matter.

Bryce has lost 6 fumbles, not 11, which is only 2 more than CJ Stroud.

I wasn't aware football games were decided by the number of passes that went 10 yards downfield.

Bryce had nearly as many touchdowns (3) as incompletions (5) last week.

They were not happy after a 450 yard passing game, why do you think they'd be happy now? They're not happy when we win 30-0, because Bryce didn't throw for 400 yards. They're not happy when we win on the last drive, because that means we were losing earlier (???). They're not happy when Bryce completes 75% of passes, records 230+ total yards, 3 TDs, 0 turnovers and outduels the MVP favorite because we ran the ball a lot. They will literally never be happy. They would be happier if we were 0-13.

6, actually. 11 total, six lost.

It was basically a one-possession game the entire game, we traded leads a few times; this is because the Rams are a good team. Defense got 3 turnovers but allowed a lot of points. Bryce threw for 3TDs with no turnovers and made two huge plays on 4th downs.
