    So you think you're very intuitive and knowledgeable...but your first instinct coming aboard was to dump our Franchise QB who we've been searching for since McNair...just because you really like Browning? Oh...and because you cherrypicked a single stat while ignoring EVERYTHING ELSE??? Awesome instincts!

    BTW, do you think the Panthers should dump Cam Newton? He was LAST in qb completion percentage under pressure. What do you think?

    Instead of Cherrypicking stats to prove what you WANT to be true (Mariota sucks so we can draft Browning), try looking at ALL of the stats, put them into context so you UNDERSTAND them so THEY will tell you what they mean. The Jags did this same exercise with their QB (prior to Bortles). They cherrypicked a single stat and decided if their QB was top 5 under these very specific set of conditions, we can make him a good QB. The next season...he was terrible again - overall!

    But instead of learning from these mistakes, you double down on them...explaining that a single stat - against all of the others (and more important ones) - means the end of Mariota? You didn't learn anything except that you were wrong.

    Another example is blasting posters for valid opinions. You have done this several times and more than once with me. Name calling bothers me as much as a dog barking at me on the sidewalk does (it doesn't). What it does do, is tell me you have no argument. Other people try it here as well with similarly poor results.

    Telling people they can't be critical of a player when you have done the same thing is not a good way to go about getting people to listen to you.

    'Try' to elaborate? Again...a condescending attitude. Not exactly what makes me take my time to help you beyond the most obvious written above.

    And BTW, even though Mariota was not good versus pressure in completion percentage and yards per attempt, his qb rating (a better overall stat) was still 12th best in the league vs pressure. And those were his 'bad' stats! lol

    You're boasting about a QB rating in the low 70s under pressure-Kaep, Hoyer, and Tyrod Taylor all did better in such situations. It's pretty much a race to the bottom in the category, outside of the elite QBs last year.

    And a horrible completion percentage is a huge problem, as that is a lot of 3rd downs not being coverted and more time that the defense and the likes of Cyprien, Dodd, Austin Johnson, and Sylvester Williams are on the field. You have made it clear that you don't want that.

    Greg Cossell on Midday180 just came out and said what I've been saying since last year.

    Wallace is better than Dodd lol.

    He even went as far to say Carraway currently looks better.

    Damn, guess that cry baby loser Greg Cossell better quit his job at ESPN and working for NFL films, grab a brush, a can of scrubbing bubbles and come help me clean these filthy ass toilets.

    But you can't say it wouldn't be devastating if MM got another major injury. The most valuable commodity you can have as an NFL player, is the ability to suit up.

    the guy who got knocked out with an injury in week 2? If you're concerned about injuries backup QBs getting hurt might be concerning too right? Super smart trade, pats would drool over taking mariota off of our hands, imagine mariota with a real coach that feeds his strengths.
