Peyton Manning and Matt Stafford are 2 guys who I can think of off the top of my head who threw more interceptions than TDs in their first year in the league, both went on to win a superbowl.
Howell is a different case in that he effectively redshirted a year before starting, but those 2 were...
I mean if we picked a development QB in the 3rd round with the 97th pick it would be all of about 2 weeks before people are calling him to start over Geno.
This is a great trade, relatively low price for a guy who has shown flashes in a single season starting - including 3+ TD games against the...
Hamlin's fight happened in October - if that's any consolation! I think he only played 4 or 5 games that year and was released after. Which means we had a full 3 months to find a replacement.
The Bears will take #1 QB on the board for the very simple reason that Fields is on the last year of his rookie contract and will cost $$$ next year, that he's probably not really worth yet.
$25m is as cheap as you will get a QB on a veteran contract.
$24.5m steps you down to Jimmy G levels. Or you can pay upwards for Ryan Tannehill (29.5m), Jared Goff (33.5m), Kirk Cousins (35m), Derek Carr (37.5m), Daniel Jones (40m)
Given the injuries to our o-line and ineffectiveness of our...
Why are you talking about him in the past tense ("For everything he played...") Has he been cut?
Anyway, we have 4 QBs who started 100+ games, while he has started just 35 so he's behind those 4 obviously.
In terms of Yards per game, yards per attempt, touchdowns per attempt and Interceptions...
From league's oldest coach to youngest - don't get much more philosophical changes than that!
I'm glad we have a defensively minded head coach though, in my eyes it's always a lot more fun when people fear your defense than offense
TBH I'd have though HC in Seattle would be top of the list for many coaches. The only concern I could see is maybe if they thought ownership change is coming could affect things
Harbaugh also had a 5 year period where they failed to make the playoffs 4 times, including 2015-2017. The Ravens head brass decided to keep him on though, they drafted Lamar Jackson in 2018, a year later they're 14-2 and Jackson is MVP.
In many respects Pete's 2023 season is much like...
Harbaugh should have been sacked years ago - having only won a superbowl back in 2012 and a 2-5 playoff record since (prior to this year), having never made a championship game in that time.
Clearly the Ravens are going nowhere, why stick with a coach whose message has clearly gone stale
Everything I read before this season about Hall was high motor but raw and will get beat often early in his career, so I never really expected him to make a mark this year. If he can have a Mafe like 2md year jump then we are in great shape.
But I think LBer is our biggest need going into the...
