Interesting Rookie QB Trivia

Recommended Posts

Was just listening to ESPN radio while running errands, and the question was what rookie QB lost the most games in their rookie year in NFL history.

They all guessed guys like Tory Aikman...  I quietly sat feeling like I contently only knew the answer because I'm a Panthers fan...

But they stumped me too...  It wasn't Weinke, to my surprise.  It was Dashone Kizer with Cleveland who lost 15 starts.  I don't even remember him starting a whole season - that is wild.  That being said, here is the depressing part - he then said there are 4 other rookie QBs in NFL history who have lost 14 games in their rookie season.  And of course, being the Panthers, we are the only team with two of those QBs out of that four - Weinke and Bryce.

Disgusting.

Well I have been comparing us to the Browns for at least the last three years so....

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
