Rob. Just trying to state the truth, in a manner that doesn't stir up shit.

Peyton Mannings first 4 starts:

3 tds
11 ints
0-4

Give the kid time to hopefully learn from these mistakes.

Haha, i've been through it all on messageboards.. i'm not too worried :)

Why does every rookie QB get compared to Peyton Manning? I actually like Geno, he has done some legitimately good things out there, but he's not even close to Peyton Manning.

Truth. Absolute truth.

Geno has done some good things, but the mistakes have been atrocious.

Quite a badge of honor.

Cool way to look at QB careers at the start game by game

Peyton Manning lost games and played poorly early in his career. Therefore, every QB that starts out shitty is great. Also...every QB that starts out better than shitty is great.

A true hardcore veteran. These niner fans are some shit tier posters.

Why did you just do the same thing you hate people doing?...

Probably a dumb idea to make this thread then...

This post makes no sense at all. I mean if you all want to start making bets with me that Geno is going to have a better career than Peyton Manning 15 years from now, be my guest. You're going to lose. You don't have to be an NFL guru to know that most QBs are not given the control of the offense Peyton Manning is. Using him as the comparison is setting yourself up for failure.

The only guy seriously in this discussion is Andrew Luck... which is sad because he gets glossed over for guys like Kaepernick and Wilson and Geno. But even Bruce Arians said Luck did more his rookie season than Manning did. And I think he might be better at the same point in his career than Manning. Long way to go though.

I'm not comparing him to Peyton.

Just illustrating how the first few games of a quarterbacks career mean much less than some might think.

10 turnovers in 4 games is a staggering total, but you can't make it more than it is.

He has had flashes of brilliance and stretches of cluelessness...how he works through it is what will make him a 13 year starter or out of the league in 5.

Sad what has happened to the Jets.

Actually Geno has 11 turnovers. He's on pace for 44. Which is terrible.

I'd agree it's not the end of the world yet... but just because Peyton Manning did it doesn't mean Geno will. It literally has 0% relevance.
