Jermon Bushrod said it all at the half, he's just not accurate. Rattler is a Liability and indecisive. Shough has been decisive and accurate. The Football always in front of the receiver so he can advance the ball...

We watch the same last drive? Shough throwing it 3 yards behind Tipton who had a step and then sailing It way over a WR's head on third down. Neither quarterback has played above average. Both have been on the lower end of average.

I agree with you on Ratter. Shough has plenty of flaws as well. He just missed on a couple of throws that he should have made. Gotta be better, but they are fairly neck and neck.

If they are nearly even……then Shough should start IMO.

Rattler is so damn frantic in the pocket.

I was basically crucified (no pun) for saying Rattler is not the answer last week.

Shough is stuck on his first read. That’s not the same thing as being decisive. Rattler is holding on to the ball too long going through every read. Neither qb has separated themselves or proven themselves as a starter.

he, as long as he has a clean pocket and there's no pass rush...

he is terrible once there is any pressure at all... just as his scouting report said, he gets antsy and inaccurate then...

Should've brought in a veteran QB.

Simple.

Both of them played best in the previous games when playing in the 2nd half. Right now Shough looks bad against backups.

Rattler is too small to QB in the NFL. If he had intangibles like Brees, or a Kyler Murray type, that would be one thing, but he doesn't

yep... the difference is one is a 5th round pick, who was the best player available that sorta fell in line with our draft board...

the other is a 2nd round pick, that we reached for, when there was not ANY QB worth taking after the top 2 were gone in the draft... we missed an opportunity to get better at another position by taking him instead of waiting to next season, when we have a very high pick and the QB prospects are better, to draft a QB

Don't forget that he was a 2nd round reach that is also older than the previous year 5th rounder..

I’d say we’re guaranteed a top 3 draft choice based on what I’m seeing today
