What's worse than Moore's 32.6 QB Rating Wk 1?

Recommended Posts

Performance.

The fact that Moore's rating isn't at least double Clausen's is pathetic. Especially considering:

Moore has 4 years of experience compared to Clausen's couple of months

Moore has been running/practicing with the 1's since training camp

Moore looks much worse than Clausen and as a result the offense looks worse when he's in.

Moore has been with the team for a few years.

Moore isn't starting caliber. We see that now. Oh well, time to see if Clausen is, rookie warts and all.

Even Manning had a crappy 1st year.

Facts:

Manning took every snap for the Colts in 1998, and set all kinds of rookie QB records in the process: most completions (326), attempts (575), and yards (3,739). He also threw for 26 TDs, breaking Charlie Conerly's 50-year-old mark. Manning was one of the top QBs in the NFL, leading the AFC in passing yards and attempts.

Facts:

Clausen hasn't started a game yet, instead entering two games late while his team was being blown out, once backed into his own endzone. He hasn't started a week practicing with the first team and hasn't had much opportunity to develop any chemistry at all with the 1s. He's been inserted into two games to try and clean up the mess that our starting QB had a large hand in making.

Despite this, he looks better than the 4th year QB ahead of him by a pretty big margin.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
