  1. I wouldn't say nobody, but probably nobody worth listening to. So neither had quality pass catchers throughout the year, and Rivers ranked 16 (6.37) vs Tyrod at 18 (6.07). And in '15 Rivers ranked 14 (6.45) vs Tyrod at 9 (7.10). Is that not 'pretty comparable'? And FWIW, idk how much you use ANY/A, but it doesn't factor in any rushing stats.
  2. Yes, as I said Rivers had some phenomenal years from 2008-2010. Tyrod clearly doesn't meet the minimum requirements yet, but his ANY/A in his 2 years as a starter is 6.55, which would tie him for 14th on that list with Dan Marino (ANY/A doesn't do past QBs any justice with the way the rules have changed). He's only started 2 years, he was over 7 once, and despite last year being 'awful' he still wasn't below 6. Tyrod is nowhere near '08-'10 Rivers, but he's pretty comparable to '15-'16 Rivers, especially when you consider he's 9 years younger. Just my opinion.
  3. And yet Fitz and Geno both have actual career ANY/A's above what Cardale did in his final quarter in 2016.
  4. He needs to do better, as does the defense. I expect both this year.
  5. 'mistakenly used a product that caused a positive result'
  6. I'm glad someone else knows! It's also the reason why I miss italian bread from Buffalo vs local places.
  7. To me, anyway, it has a lot to do with the water profile. Great for making dough. Personal experience since leaving is that it is far more difficult to replicate the pizza than it is the wings.
  8. They're building one in DC at the old Fannie Mae property
  9. That just makes me want Flying Bison's Spot Coffee Stout...
  10. they have ~5.6M for 2017. We have ~12.3M
  11. his tie is actually to our QB coach, not our WR coach
  12. The Eagles signed Alshon Jeffrey and Torrey Smith and drafted Mack Hollins. I think their lack of interest is because they're already set at the position.
  13. That would depend on who signs him, I suppose. If he signs with the Bills it'd be Tyrod Taylor.
  14. I understand and respect your position, I just disagree based on the players right now. Everyone's got their stat, I personally really like ANY/A for QB performance. Generally speaking, if over the course of a season your ANY/A is 7 or higher it was a really good year. In Rivers' 11 years starting, he's broken the 7.0 mark 4 times (over 8.0 twice!). Unfortunately, he's only done it once since 2010. Tyrod has been a starter for 2 years, and he broke 7 once so far. For reference I'll give you the guys who've met this mark the past 2 years. 2016: Matt Ryan Tom Brady Dak Prescott Kirk Cousins Drew Brees Aaron Rodgers Derek Carr Marcus Mariota 2015: Carson Palmer Andy Dalton Russell Wilson Tom Brady Drew Brees Cam Newton Ben Roethlisberger Kirk Cousins Tyrod Taylor
  15. This probably would've been more effective as a poll, by the way.
  16. this is actually the sequel "1st time Head Coach hiring someone he has worked with before who has Head Coaching experience"
  17. Not even close to the point I was making.
  18. 6 of our 8 losses (with Tyrod) were by 7 points or less, but many love to nitpick Tyrod for garbage time. My contention is that with our defense performing the way it did last year we would not have been able to overcome all the extra turnovers that come with Rivers (21 INTs and 9 Fumbles vs. 6 INTs and 4 Fumbles). Rivers had 33 TDs to Tyrod's 23 last year, but 10 extra TDs do not make up for 20 more turnovers. It's just my opinion, but we would have won fewer games last year with Rivers than we did with Tyrod.
