6-10 Team with Chase Daniel

[Prison Bitch]

Someone at the game today made a comment that we should play Chase Daniel next year and "get rid of that clown Smith". Like always, I wanted to see what the data suggests.


We have almost no sample size for Daniel as he's played 2 games. We have a large sample size for Alex though. QB rating is extremely correlated to wins in the NFL. The average rating is 84: a team can expect an additional win (or loss) moving approximately 6 points from the median. Alex had a 93 rating and Daniel had a 75 rating today. That's an implied swing of 3 full games if we assume static performance.


While there is no way to know if Daniel would perform differently over the course of a season, it's doubtful any teams (or our own coaching staff) believe he could. Else, he'd be picked up as a starter. Whether Chiefs fans see any value finishing 9-7 vs 6-10 if you miss the playoffs regardless is another discussion.

You mean the same Aaron Rodgers you referred to as "GROSSLY overrated" and claimed you'd rather have Russell Wilson than him?

Now you see why I call him a dupshit on a regular basis. He should just change his name to it.

I'd take Wilson over Rodgers. It's a coin flip, though.

And I guess it's tough for people to realize the Rodgers and Brady threads were a way of asking why they get postseason passes but Peyton Manning does not ... but I sometimes expect too much from this board in the common sense department.

What's a WR?


Weekend Runner?

[Pablo]

Was Alex really all that important in those nine wins? All we really needed was a QB that can run an average two minute offense and complete a pass over twenty yards two times a game and we're probably ten plus game winners. It's not like he's asked to run an offense that uses an entire field or anything.

Seattle would trade Wilson for Rodgers straight up in an instant. Wouldn't even regret it, really.

Neither one of them have the long and distinguished record of choking that Fivehead has.

and after reading the OP of the linked thread, what are you disagreeing with?

Rodgers STILL holds the ball too long and STILL will never beat a team with an elite pass rush because he STILL takes too many sacks.

And Rodgers was, IMO, the best NFL QB THIS year.

However, he's been so/so in the postseason. This year, he has NO excuse. He shouldn't have gotten excuses two years ago, either. Even last year.

...and I'd still take Russell Wilson over Aaron Rodgers.

But again, that's a coin flip for me.

[Pablo]

He's asked to run a backup qb level game plan every week and I'm supposed to praise him for not ****ing that up all the time while making 17 million? Really?

Rodgers holds the ball too long and Alex doesn't? Please tells that's what you're trying to insinuate here.

I know this because I watch the ****ing games.

Lynch makes the offense go, but wilson has 54 passes for 20+. That guy makes some things happen when he has to. Def not a game manager.

Seriously

I'm all ears.

Unitas helped revolutionized football from a running sport to a passing one. He had a touchdown pass in 47 straight games, which in that era was just amazing. 6-2 all time playoff record. 3 World Championships. He also lead the NFL in passing yards and touchdowns more times than Manning did.
