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.

    • Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?
    • Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade. 
    • Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
