Thanks Jacksonville.

You inflated Kaeps numbers and he is once again, over rated.

Cant stand him. Any QB would look alot better than they actually are on that team. Seems like every player is a pro bowler. Especially their offensive line. Gets under my skin like no other.

I know how you feel. 

 

Anytime he as to show patience in the pocket, he looks like a Wild Tatted Chicken, the way he shuffles his feet, gets fidgety, and obviously uncomfortable, then bolts!!

 

But they don't trust him anymore, and have shown they can win with him the same way they did with Alex Smith last year as essentially a game manager (with his wheels as a added dimension).

To the OP:

It would help (unless I'm missing it), to separate the passing TD's from total TD's, though I know you're being fair and including "total turnovers" as well.

I disagree.

With QBs like Cam, Wilson, Kaepernick, Griffin, and even Luck as the new "young guns" in this league (throw in Pryor and Smith and others as well if you wish), production from their legs is an integral part of their game. Next time I may provide rush yards or just add it with passing for total yards. Its a new day with these QBs.

If you wish to grade them on their arm alone, I'd be excited to see your own post providing that information.

I asked, cause I think Cam is a better pocket QB than all these guys, and it's still good to know the passing stats/separate them.

 

It's all good.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
