    you can't be serious...A leader that comes in overweight, a thief, and throwing picks left and right?...GTFOH. I get that Marcus is kind of boring etc, but that's now your priority in a QB.

    Stats mean nothing. He's been a winner his whole career. He's super clutch down the stretch and knows how to win. Would you rather have 4 wins right now or 2 and good stats,

    The one thing Winston is doing that I wish Mariota would do atm, is play rookie ball at times.

    By that I mean, when you're a rookie QB, the game hasn't slowed down for you yet. So there are times when you just need to trust/rely on pure talent alone. It might pay off, it might not.

    I've seen plays where it looks like the defense brings something Jameis hasn't seen yet and he isn't scared to just immediately take off and run, trust his arm to thread a pass or trust his WR to make a play.

    Marcus seems different. You can tell he doesn't want to ever just rely on talent alone. Even if it's tough coverage or if he's getting destroyed, his instincts are still to go through his reads and try to dissect a defense.

    I have no problem with that at all. While now, Winston has more wins and seems to have completely won over that locker room (and bucs fans I know that hated the pick). Marcus has the drive and ambition to want to be a cerebral QB who beats teams cause he knows what's coming. It won't pay off much now as a rookie since the game hasn't slowed down for him yet, but could pay off sooner than later. That way we hopefully don't end like the Redskins or 49ers who have franchise QBs that flamed out once teams figured them out.

    It'll be very interesting to these 2 guys 3 years from now.

    It just makes no sense. We have a better defense than them. An Oline just as bad. They have better wrs. We have better TE'S yet they've won 4 games and we've won 2. I would have never thought that Winston would be a better nfl runner than mariota. He's really making people who laughed at his 40 time look dumb.

    Did you account for rushing TD's as well?

    talking about 40 times and QB's is dumb to start

    I preferred MM but I was cool with JW too, I think in the end its all about both teams running games, they have one, we dont. RB is a rookie QB's best friend and without one everything is harder..

    If Mariota is such a boring QB then why is he marketed so much nationally? How many commercials is Winston in? How many was VY in?

    VY could read the script about as well as he could read the playbook.

    If you think Mariota is the same around teammates as he is in front of the media you are a fool. Marcus is a leader.

    You can blame it on playing bad defenses but Jameis has yet to have impressive weeks like that. He's been a winner his whole life because he has had talent around him his entire life. FSU was loaded in his time there. Don't be this naive. Jameis has a ton more weapons than the Titans do right now
