If Baker can get his head out of his rear end the Browns might be pretty good still. Seems like enough pieces are there

ESPN Power Rankings, Week 3

“ESPN” posted:

7. Seattle Seahawks (2-0)

Week 2 ranking: 11

Pleasant surprise: DK Metcalf producing this much, this soon after surgery. It was clear in the offseason that Metcalf would factor heavily into the Seahawks' offense as a rookie. Less clear was when he would start to make an impact once he had minor knee surgery Aug. 20. He made it back by the opener and has seven catches for 150 yards thus far, plus a touchdown that came in a pivotal moment in Seattle's win over Pittsburgh on Sunday.
Seems a little high? The Seahawks barely beat the Bengals in Seattle, whereas the 49ers steamrolled them in Cincinatti. Beating the Steelers at home is cool and good, but against a dead Big Ben for half the game.

If Trubinsky continues to play at his current level, at what week do the Bears HAVE to think about trying Daniels?

Quick Reads is up:

https://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2019/week-2-quick-reads

Top half of the article is some analysis about how when a QB gets pressured, they have to make a choice... do they hold onto the ball for as long as possible, taking more sacks, do they throw riskier passes downfield and get intercepted more, or do they throw dumpoffs and throwaways and not move the ball.

Meanwhile....

The top are a bunch of the top QB's and Jimmy G, while down in hell:

33. Josh Rosen -126

quote:

28-of-36 for 444 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions. No, those aren't Rosen's splits in any category. That's what Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa did against South Carolina. Just sayin'. As for Rosen, all of his dropbacks this week came in the fourth quarter with the Dolphins down by at least 37 points.

34. Ryan Fitzpatrick -209

quote:

Fitzpatrick's second pass of the game was complete for 15 yards on first-and-10. The next time he picked up a first down, the Dolphins were down by 30 points in the fourth quarter. He had three plays in New England territory: two pick-sixes and a third-down sack. He did not convert any of his seven third-down plays, going 1-of-5 (a 2-yard completion on third-and-14) with two interceptions and two sacks. I swear every word of this write-up is true. Fitzpatrick and Rosen combined for -336 DYAR this week, a total that would set the single-game record for negative DYAR (pending end-of-year opponent adjustments) if it had been done by one player.

Was Eli ever like one of the best 5 QBs in the league any time during his career? Maybe in 2011 (but probably not)?

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, MAD-2R World

Rate+ indexes your passer rating against the league average that season, so if you were exactly league average in a season you get a rate+ of 100.

Eli's average rate+ for his career is

98

Nah this year is weird. Losing Luck, if we lose Cam that's honestly heartbreaking. Ben can gently caress off but also may not play again. It will only accelerate from here for that generation of QB, but Luck and Cam are way too young which means it's out of the ordinary


Looks like the word came from on high (Gettleman/the owner) to start Daniel Jones. They're only playing the Bucs so it isn't an awful game to start him in but he still might have trouble.
