6-10 Team with Chase Daniel
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. |

Phillip was excellent today. He's a very clutch NFL QB. |

Daniel is better and cheaper. I'd definitely take Derek Carr over either one, though.

QB passing rating is a fairly worthless stat. A high completion percentage with no interceptions inflates the system.
The best QB rating currently is the Total QBR. Its way more accurate in how a QB is actually doing that passing rating. |

Rating is a very accurate predictor of wins, so it's hardly worthless. QBR correlates to wins almost identically as Rating does.

On a side note, Manning has six of the ten best seasons of all time by that metric. Crazy. |
