I'm more concerned about his stats if you take away his INTs and Tackles. Hideous!

He was never available to any team other than the Bills at any point this offseason. Not sure what made you think otherwise.

He's had 5 balls hit him in both hands in 4 weeks. The Carolina one is the only one that could be argued, but even then it was an error in his route (which he has learned from).

They say Zay has 1 drop this year? That's why drops aren't an official stat...

Pretty sure Billy B also makes a big deal out of turnovers. Not an issue imo.

Through his 7 games last year, Goff scored a 43.4 in this system. So yes, clear early improvement indicators.

In terms of the rating, he has played in 3 games to Tyrod's 4 and attempted more passes than Tyrod. Keenum is averaging a full yard per touch more than Tyrod, and 1 more touch per game than Tyrod. Keenum also hasn't had a turnover yet.

feces-ish

Haha, yeah the 4th Quarter Run, Run, QB Run thing has been a bit of a downer, but it's working so far!

TO% and TD/TO Ratio are both top shelf. But for him to pull his rating up he'll need to score more. Thanks! Yeah, it's been a rough one for him. I do feel slightly emboldened by the fact that rank 31 has already been benched

That's your opinion. For now I like my formula. We'll see how the rest of the year plays out. I'll be making an update after week 9.

The last column uses Yards per Touch, TD%, and TO% and is weighted by attempts per game compared to their peers. One explanation for Tyrod being where he is could be the defenses he's faced so far. The Bills have faced the 3rd most difficult schedule so far based on opponent W/L. In 2015 he finished 13, and in 2016 he finished 14.

Now that everyone has 4 games on the books I present to you lovely folks, without (excessive) commentary, my 2017 1st Quarter QB Rankings. Mostly doing this just to document changes throughout the season. Feel free to discuss, question, or turn it into an endless TT debate. The final column is my rating system, and is what the QBs are sorted by, and I have only included QBs that have played in 3 or more games. Conveniently, that number came out to 32.

31st in sack % among QBs with at least 100 attempts. Only A Smith is worse.

I wish Tyrod or Von were mic'd up for last week. That would caught some really funny stuff.

Shorts isn't on the team any more. Not that that rules him out necessarily if Reilly gets called up, but it seems unlikely that they bring in a guy who isn't worth a PS spot.

John Brown is being under-utilized in Arizona with only 17 targets.

I'll stick with my Dinner's on Me picks, for the most part. Clearly I got Carolina and Atlanta flipped. Maybe I flip the Chiefs to a loss and @Fish to a win. Add NO as a toss up because I'm not sure we can keep up. 10-6 or 11-5 still feels about right.

I don't know. It's not something that is traditionally tracked.

No, it really doesn't. To support your argument you would need to look at time in the pocket, which is different than the stat you are trying to use.

It supports that he extends plays with his feet rather than giving up on them.

It's from USA Today, or one of their sports affiliates anyway.

About the content of the comments? Nope, not one bit. They care about the number. It's pretty sad what it's become, honestly.

I'm sure they're thrilled with the number of comments...
