MJS Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Interesting. Allen has a higher score than Mayfield, Darnold, Rosen, and Jackson. 5 hours ago, D. L. Hot-Flamethrower said: Big surprises for me are Jared Goff at 145 and Kirk Cousins at 171, just at a quick glance. I got made fun of for saying Goff is not a great QB back when he got his new contract. I've watched quite a bit of him and I think he is a good QB, just not great, and I kind of doubt he will ever be great. He doesn't have that clutch gamer ability. Can't put the team on his back. So I'm not surprised his score is average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They think Allen is the 2nd best QB in the division being slightly below average. There are some other, interesting tidbits in there. 538 Who else would be second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back when I was in HS (admittedly quite a # of years ago now) Math 11 was Trigonometry. Math 10 was Geometry and I believe Math 9 was Algebra. Math 12 was Calculus...

Further, at that age, we were able to handle the hammers and chisels for the stone tablets that much easier. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Results on many stats are skewed after just 1 game. They saw what I saw -- A QB whose accuracy and ball placement looked much better that made several bonead plays. His "bonehead" plays all came after he'd been flushed from the pocket or under duress. The OL will get better and when Josh wasn't hurried, he was throwing dimes. He needs to handle pressure better. No one is better when they're running for their life, but handling it well is still a competitive advantage. An incomplete pass is better than a sack, or worse, a pick. He needs to learn to always put 2 hands on the ball before taking a hit. It will come for him. At least now that I know that he can aim, I like his chances better. Let's see how Allen looks in week 2. Big games for Zay and Isaiah against the Giants #3 & #4 DB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it seems like their formula is influenced by QBR in some way, over the past 10 games: Big Ben: 65.52 Brady: 65.09 Keenum: 53.96 Stafford: 50.96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
