There is no true apples to apples. Jennings played that game as well and was equally ineffective in relief.


What I saw Jennings do in that game, was much more than Harris. He didn't panic, then run away when his first read wasn't open, and actual got the ball to the player. I guess y'all need a refresher course on passes flying high over everybody's head including one that almost got Quinn decapitated. Or running immediately when there was no reason to at all, or fumbling the snap, or running the wrong way, etc. Jennings looked much better in comparison. His completion percentage in that game was more do to some of the contested balls being knocked down. Go look it up, it's a video of both of their play on youtube in that game.

I want both of them to succeed, but I'm not going to lie just to prop one guy above the other like so many people are doing on here.

Not at all. Harris played absolutely terrible. He went out and laid an egg when he had the chance to win the position for good. Amazing it was still the second worst QB performance of the season.

Zero scoring drives against backups. So no, he did not do more.

No, he panicked and took a sack. Jennings might not have looked for his second receiver all season.

or fumbling the snap


Harris didn't turn the ball over on a fumble all season. Jennins had at least 2.

He played against backups and still couldn't produce any points. He had one of his best completion percentages though. (50 %)

Except that you are lying just to prop one guy above the other. If you want to say Jennings didn't have as bad of throws as Harris did in that game, I would agree. At no point did he ever look good in comparison.
