A pretty insane QB stat

All I know is you cannot pay Bryce 50 million a year. If he has a solid year next year I think the most prudent thing to do would be trade him and let someone else do it.

panthers beinf the panthers if byoung finishes anywhere above bottom 5 qbs in the nfl they gonna pay him as a top ten qb and lock him into a long term deal just to punish the panther fans for being panther fans

How many made it to the SB?  Cam was drafted #1 and almost won, do we think he wasn't worth the pick?  lol  

Same with Joe Burrow.  

It’s a stupid weird stat. Here’s some of the stuff that messes up:

1. It ignores the 3 SBs won since 2000 by QBs drafted before 2000. It also ignores the 8 SBs won by 1st rounders drafted outside the top 5. That’s 42% of the SB winners right there.

2. As you mentioned, the SB winner clause removes 8 top 5 lost SBs and 5 1st rounders drafted outside losses, which is 50% of all SBs since 2000.

3. You also have the SB for Nick Foles that absolutely gets and asterisk because top a top 5 Eagles draft pick was an MVP candidate at 11-2 with 33TDs. If Wentz doesn’t have that amazing season, the Eagles aren’t the #1 seed. It’s like the Hostetler SB win that ignores what Simms did. Foles doesn’t win that SB if he played the entire year.

4. Tom Brady won 23% of the SBs by himself and lost 3 of the 26. He’s the exception that proves the rule.

The funny part is that outside of Brady, the list of SB winners and losers is basically 1st round QBs, including some traded guys.

It's only a stupid stat if you're desperately clinging to the idea that the only way to find a SB caliber QB is in the top 5 of the draft. I get it, it hits some people right on the feels but it is what it is.

What it really proves is you don't have to sell the future to go up to 1 to get a QB. Finding a QB with the tools and having a good coach/system in place makes more impact than draft rankings.

Its been laid out here numerous times what a team would look like with cMC, DJ, Carter, and what other draft assets we gave away.   Fitt and co panicked and the only person that wanted to pumped the brakes was samir and he was fired.  I said all along stay at 9 and see what happened then make a decision, then we made the move it should have been stroud. Oh well lets hope for a miracle this season

    • I understand why people say things like it could be worse in relation to Tepper but it just doesn't jive for me. Are the optics bad? Yes. Would I want her to be the owner of my team? No. But I mean she's only been owner for a year and the Colts overall are a better run organization. As far as I know they've also never had the distinction of having the worst win percentage in all of professional sports either. Tepper has owned this team for 8 years and about the only thing that has been consistent has been the ability to continue to find different ways to achieve new lows. Even now people are saying things are different yada yada but we said these same things at certain points under Rhule Fitterer and Reich. I'm going to wait to see how the rubber meets the road this upcoming season before I make any strong conclusions about anything in relation to the longevity under this franchise going forward.
    • This is a toughie because I wonder what a guy like Canales thinks about redemption stories for addiction issues. Also, I think this is a case of 1 player getting caught, and not being naive enough to think this isn't more common in college than we think. I'd toss a 3rd rounder out there. 2026 is essentially a redshirt season regardless, so he's not taking over for any NFL QB next year. Best case, he's ready to go in 2027 if we pass on Bryce's extension. Worst case, he's our future backup QB2. Kid has the tools to be an NFL QB. I do think we could somehow land a '26 3rd round pick back in a trade. Our past years' third rounders are: Brazzell Princely Wallace DJ Johnson Matt Corral All this to say, I could see a team like the Jets going w/ a 2nd. They have three FRPs next year.
