Honestly I didn’t learn anything from that game. I have no takes. It rained heavily and the football was bad.

Two passes completed that had over 10 yards in the air. Fields was awful, but thankfully for the Bears Dobbs was even worse.

From a grading POV he’s having the best year of his career.

You have to wonder how much is being covered by his coaching and Hill, but at the end of the day, he’s the one throwing those passes.

He’s having a great year. #2 ranked QB this year so far.

I kind of think Saleh has had no chance at all tbh.

Of course he could have done some stuff better, but his defense is elite. If you put Saleh as HC on the Chargers this season with Moore at OC we probably go 12-5.

I think on a case by case basis it could be muddy. For example they didn’t call any of Tua’s throws in that game in Germany TWP, even though I’m sure some were.

Over a season though it’s fairly accurate, and a better - but still flawed - way of estimating how well QBs take care of the ball.

purdy elite

Better metric is PFF’s turnover worthy play % (lower is better)

Tua: 3.3% (19th best in NFL)

Allen: 2.4% (6th best in NFL)

If anyone is interested, here’s the top 5 and bottom 5 among QBs that have had over 285 passing attempts (basically at least half of games started).

Five best:

Dak Prescott (1.6%)

Matt Stafford (1.9%)

Joe Burrow (2.1%)

Kenny Pickett (2.1%)

Kirk Cousins (2.3%)

Five worst:

Geno Smith (3.9%)

Josh Dobbs (4.0%)

Brock Purdy (4.1%)

Mac Jones (5.1%)

Desmond Ridder (5.6%)

Miami losing Hill would be catastrophic.

We’ve seen the 49ers perform at a high level without CMC before, we haven’t seen Tua be a top-level QB for sustained periods without Hill.

They are a slightly below average for an 8-3 team. Stop being hyperbolic.

I seem to remember a recent Steelers team that was like 7-0 and I was almost certain they absolutely sucked. And didn’t the Titans randomly get the AFC 1 seed recently?

It’s still a horrible pick. Montgomery is the lead back there and balling out - showing exactly why you don’t take a high pick RB.

Gibbs is earning $4m a year more than Montgomery and cost a 1st round pick as opposed to nothing.

Because Josh McDaniels is a good OC that can put a decent scheme together.

He’s an absolutely awful HC, but technically as a playcaller and scheme designer he is at least decent.

I could see them signing Mike Williams. We are likely going to cut him to save on cap room. He’s balled out against them a ton so I could see them trying to get him.

The problem for Staley is that Kellen Moore is in the building and has long been tipped as a HC candidate (but before he left the Cowboys Jerry Jones refused to let him out).

That reality makes this probably much quicker for the Chargers to pull the trigger.

And before everyone calls the Chargers cheap or whatever, Staley only has 1 year left on his contract, they fired both Antony Lynn and Mike McCoy when they had a year left on their contracts.

I don’t agree with kicking and punt returns being “luck”. We spent a 4th round pick on a specialist returner and he broke off a 60 yard punt return against the Jets. That isn’t really luck…

I think we’ve had a lead in 8 out of our 9 games with under 4 minutes to play this season.

We’re 4-5.

I feel like people are trying to math a way to the Rams losing this trade. They won a Super Bowl, they won the trade. The Lions also won the trade.

I wonder which fans would do the best in these fights. Probably not Raiders fans I guess since they don’t want to risk violating parole.

I think you could make an argument that Garrett was the 2nd best first overall in the last 10 years.

He’s definitely better than:

• Eric Fisher

• Jadaveon Clowney

• Jameis Winston

• Jared Goff

• Baker Mayfield

• Kyler Murray

• Travon Walker

Then TLaw I think is debatable because I don’t think we’ve reached his full potential (plus QB is more valuable). Bryce Young is too early but it doesn’t look good.

Burrow is obviously the best in the last 10 years.

Yes, at various points it looked like Burrow over Herbert was an error and that Tua would be a bust. All three have gone on to be top level QBs.

Allen looked terrible until his 3rd season. Hurts was poor to start with too.
