thats an awful opinion. 

Show me how they arent, basically the exact same career stats. 

And hell while your at it you can lump Baker in with them.

All mediocre QBs who are overpaid. 

If we ever hit on a real elite QB we dont have to worry about any of them.

Ok:

Cousins has started fewer games(145 to 159, nearly a season less), thrown more TDs (270 to 242), higher YPA (7.6 to 7.1), Higher QB Rating (98.2 to 92.3), and a better record as a starter (76-67-2 vs. 72-87).

They are not the same.

Baker got more playoff wins than both of them combined in less time in the league though.  I'd put Baker in sort of a different tier.  I think his rollercoaster play allows a team to reach a technically reach a higher level than the other two.

Lol by a few points here and there?

The lead to the same place QB purgatory. 10 wins early playoff exits at best. 

Same type of QB. 

If you were putting QBs in tiers they are in the same tier, below the elite QBs.

Someone said Kirk Cousins is a generational bag getter

He’s fourth in all time earnings. He might bump up to 3rd depending on what he and Russel Wilson get this year.

Does Carr get any bonus points for having to deal with the Davis family?

I dont think anyone in the organization cares who wins the division this year, we are clearly in tank mode

The Panther way. 

Most orgs tank to get a #1 overall QB type player

Panthers get the the #1 overall QB and then tank

He is all around more efficient than Carr. He has put up the same stats in fewer games than Carr. Kirk Also has a better career TD to INT %.

Kirk is a top 10 QB by all metrics hovering around 7-10 consistently. You can win a SB with that kind of QB Play.

Having said ALL of this, Kirk, like the Falcons, has a reputation of choking when it matters. So either it's a match made in meme heaven for everyone but the Falcons, or their anti-clutchness cancels each other out and they are actually good.

In theory just looking at the stats yes, but then you realize its Kirk Cousins and you snap back to reality. 

Carr has also been in the same range 10-15......its not a drastic difference.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
