big players make big plays in big games

this season is a litmus test by which we test whether teddy bidgewater - who is solid - is a franchise quarterback.

this game was a litmus test for that season.

that fourth quarter was a litmus test for that game.

teddy is solid but he failed this particular litmus test.

time will tell if he will pass the next couple, likely starting next week against new orleans.

There were very fine people on both sides of the 4th down. DJ could have nabbed it but Teddy made a poor throw.

Absolutely no excuse for the final INT though. That was awful. Probably learned that from Brees.

there are very few wide receivers who even get a finger on that ball, let alone actually almost haul it in. it was an atrocious throw at a critical moment in the ballgame.

It's insane to me people are actually defending that throw.

Oh it was bad no doubt. But DJ won’t make that excuse. He pretty much had the catch and botched it rolling down.

This thread about Teddy or DJ Moore?

 

Let's see if you can answer honestly.

yeah Moore is absolutely not a Steve Smith type player who makes the play; that's anderson

unfortunately Moore would have had two TDs today with better throws. The first you can saw bridgewater was pressured but that 4th quarter throw was inexcusable.

I normally do not agree with you here but this is spot on.

If D.J. is supposed to be a #1 WR he's gotta come down with thoses. Those are the off kilter throws Ryan, Ben and Hopkins used to throw to Julio, Brown and Nuk respectively. 

D.J. was more of a let down than Teddy today.

    • Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.
    • Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
    • as a starter, Shough is better this year in all the aspects I shared with you.  Facts. You disputed nothing I said because I’m talking starts and my numbers are right
