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.

Tony did have an amazing line and a stud rb, so I'm sure he made the most of that. You put Alex on that team and he might target Dez four times a game and they're going 500 with that trash defense.

You do realize that a rookie Carr threw more touchdown passes than and for almost as many yards as "prime" Smiff, while on an aborted dumpster fire of a team.

Carr might be something decent under his turd shell in the future. Alex doesn't have a shell. He's turd all the way through.

He played about the best 2nd half in the history of the postseason in a loss to Atlanta in his first postseason. Like, incredible. Best half of QB'd football I've ever seen.

and then last year in the NFCCG they would have lost that game if not for his hard count, draw 49ers offsides on 4th and 7, and then throws a very aware deep ball (free play) to Kearse who scores the go ahead score.

if you really want to look at a stat sheet and try to say Russell doesn't do anything for the Seahawks perhaps you could make an argument

it would just be incorrect

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

Russell Wilson is an overglorified game manager. He's Alice Smiff with better scrambling ability on a mega-stacked team. Marshawn Lynch carries that offense.

I realize that Derek Carr in no way, shape or form was a better QB in 2014 than Alex Smith.

Good God.

YPA means something though.

Russell Wilson didn't have nearly a good of 2014 as he did 2013 and his numbers were still better than Alex's across the board.

Alex is basically the poverty Russ.

Carr comes in at 26 in total qbr. He's at the bottom of the toilet with Smith.

[Hootie]

I wonder if morons realize that touchdowns and yardage are a lot easier to accumulate when your team is playing catch up late in games and the other team is in constant prevent defense trying to get the game over with

oh wait, I don't wonder, because GoChargers is trying to act like Derek Carr had a promising rookie year, which he did not have
