Interesting Stats for Brodie's First 3 Starts.
 

This is a re-post from a previous thread..at the request of another poster. Basically Brodie looks pretty damn good in comparison to some other HOF QB's in his first 3 starts.





If Brodie still "sucks" and lacks total pocket awareness by the end of next season I'd be worried.

Right now he is making good reads, doing his best behind this line and distributing the ball mostly accurately and timely.

I suppose if we wanted to look at the first three career stats of some HOF'ers to Brodie's we could do that.

Peyton Manning
62/114 - 54%
683 yards
2 TD's/8 INT's
7 Sacks
0-3 record

John Elway
28/62 - 45%
313 yards
1 TD/3 INT's
10 Sacks
2-1 record

Tom Brady
58/101 - 57%
618 yards
2 TD's/0 INT's
8 Sacks
2-1 record

Brodie Croyle
46/79 - 58%
446 yards
2 TD's/2 INT's
10 Sacks
0-3 record

While most of these stats have nothing to do with pocket presence, it's obviously some of the great QB's didn't develop it within 3 games. And Brodie has put up some reasonable numbers for his first few starts.

now compare him to the first three starts by Leaf, Harrington and Carr...

Ha, ha. Elway sucks.

Excellent post and great research. GZrox88!
And I would venture to guess that those QBs had substantially better OLs and at least some semblance to a rushing attack (we are down to #3 on our depth chart). thanks for digging this up.

I believe Croyle is OUR GUY. A Chiefs draft pick, a Chiefs developed QB, a future Chiefs SB QB!!!!!!!

Can ya dig up Troy Achmans stats first three games?

The losses are hard to live with. So are the sacks.

Otherwise, it's not bad, I guess. I wonder ... are we really lucky enough to have found a franchise-caliber quarterback? Probably not. But if so, are these coaches qualified to bring him along? Probably not. But if so, can we surround him with sufficient talent to make him a winner? Probably not.

So what's the point? Anybody watch any rasslin' lately?

Ryan Leaf
41/80 - 51%
409 yards
1 TD/3 INT's
10 Sacks
0-3 record

Joey Harrington
60/111 - 54%
758 yards
5 TD's/5 INT's
2 Sacks
1-2 record

David Carr
28/69 - 41%
331 yards
2 TD's/4 INT's
19 Sacks
1-2 record

I think Brodie looks pretty good actually. He is hitting our dumbass receivers in the hand when he actually has time.

They should of just benched his arse. We would have.

All losses?

ROFL

It's true!!! They act shocked to have the ball hit them in the hands!

It seems like our receivers aren't doing a heck of a lot of that actual receiving thing.

Manning and Horseface were probably on bad teams
Brady not so much

Troy Aikman
36/79 - 46%
504 yards
1 TD/6 INT's
6 Sacks
0-3 record

Given this oline, we really should spot Croyle 2 wins and 5 sacks.
