Comparing a random stat to another rookie QB has nothing to do with the current subject.  Tom Brady had a 6.0 YPA his rookie year.  I hope you're not using one stat to define success of a QB?

You're seriously pivoting to the GOAT? I am howling!

Yes, but the point went easily over your head.  Brady had 1 pass for 6 yards his rookie year.  See how stupid the comparison in regards to using one stat to decide if a QB is good or not.

Cam ward is a starting qb.

Which is it?

It's starting QB's.  I should have been more clear.  I was more referring to Clausen.  I thought common sense would tell us that Cam Ward isn't a good comparison yet because he has only played 3 games.  

I mean, we can, but with a sample size that small it doesn't really tell us anything and definitely doesn't answer the question of if Ward is or will be a successful NFL QB.

You can look at them and dissect them pretty well with just your eyes.

And if my eyes tell me something, no stat will change my mind. Only the player will do that.

At this juncture I don't think you have a point that doesn't involve going to any lengths possible to portray Bryce Young as anything but one of the worst busts of all time.

Brady for his career had 7.4 YPA. The top 20 in all time list for YPA hovers at an average of around 7.7.

Bryce Young for his career so far is lower than Joey Harrington. Feel free to go find where Harrington is in that list buddy. Good talking to ya.

Brady also played the first six years of his career before they opened up the passing rules. 

imagine Bryce trying to play in 2001.
