or suckiest depending on if you have an axe to grind or not

Pro Football reference blog put out a list of QB numbers adjusted for strength of schedule for last season. It's a fun diversion to see who's numbers were grossly inflated last year (hint: AFC East) and wonders why everyone's so mean to poor Tony Romo.

Hah, and people mocked me for saying Rivers should have been the MVP last year. Or that Penny is very good.

And yes CS, YPA is a big deal in measuring QB performance.

No SMF, it doesn't mean that TJ is "BETTER" than PM overall, it means that he performed better with those parameters.

Tavarais MUCH less pass attempts. However, and I pointed this out a few weeks ago with about our WR corp's td production.

I would do a comparison between Jake, Romo and Rivers.

Romo threw only 36 more passes yet produced 11 more td's.

Rivers threw 64 more passes and produced 19 MORE td's.

I love Jake but he was awful last year especially in several games, he looked like a frakkin retard. ie: Oakland,Tampa and playoff game.

Hopefully he will turn it around this year.

I don't think he was awful in the Tampa game. His stat line was awful. He put some good balls in play and gave guys a chance to make plays......too many went off the hands of WRs. I didn't have a problem w/ a lot of the "bad" throws that game.

I will give him a pass since he did the unthinkable and came back from Tommy John. Who knows, we might see the guy who took the field in 07 prior to his injury this year. One can hope.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Here comes Frankw and his pathetic little persecution complex to claim I have a personal vendetta against one of the worst performing coaches in the league if anything I should love Canales because he’s walking proof that through the lord all things AREN'T possible.  This kind of performance is exactly what you’d expect from someone who filled the building with misunderstood Bible quotes about iron forging iron and inspired speeches about how he apologized for his infidelity by buying his wife a book deal.  once more into the breech dear friends, just like when I paid a stripper for an above the pants hand job in Orlando.

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      As dumb as it probably sounds, we should have won that game.  Defense was bad but Bryce should have been better.  Pass rush isn't a good enough excuse.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
