Forgot this one in my post. It definitely makes a HUGE difference.

I saw some guys the other day on twitter, can't find it now, showing the angles he throws the ball and how much more catchable it is.

I don't have the stats, but I'd be willing to bet he works the middle and seams a LOT more than Rattler did too, at least that's what it appears to me

The safety was jogging and was still 5 yards within the dB that picked the ball. He stopped running when olave stopped running because that was his responsibility.



You do realize that if Olave streaks like he should have. Then he would have been right where the corner was. If not a step or 2 further. The safety was not going to make it. Shuck literally throws it deep within 2 secs of the snap bc he knew the zone safety couldn’t make it. He made that decision pre snap.

Its like you guys have no concept of what zone is



you say this like it will work every play. Shuck out smarted the safety. Too bad Olave did not.

Nope he looked off the safety before throwing deep.

Olave has a pattern of fricking things up.

That said, I get what you are saying about the wideout modifying his route based on what he is seeing while running it.

As I recall it was fairly universal from the commentators that Olave didn't see what Shough saw, and he should have

The BIGGEST difference between the 2 is that Rattler is a one read QB who stares down his read the whole way, while Shough actually goes through his progression (though I wish he would get to his check down quicker at times, though he is already doing that better than Rattler ever did).



he also changes the protection at the line if needed.

Thank you!

I didn’t hear the cometary, but it is so obvious.

What is even better about shuck. Is he took the blame in his post game interview. Even though he knew he was right. He is a leader. That’s why I overlook his age. His maturity is a big reason why he will succeed at a quicker clip.

You have no proof of that. Id need to see the all 22 to confirm, but its a good better best situation. If shough fits it in the deep ball its an all pro throw given the coverage. Best is olave reading the safety playing zone and choosing the comeback

Has anyone claimed “the numbers” are that much different? He’s arguing apples to oranges for “Spence”

No, because no one can. Because the numbers arent much different from Spencer to Shough

I can give you small and an average arm by nfl standards, but it is by no means weak.

The inaccurate shite to me is wild and a false narrative. Besides having a higher comp%, spencer has a lower bad throw % (11 to 15.8 for Tyler) the on target throws are nearly identical (74.7 to 75.1 for tyler) the drop% from receivers as well (4.5 to 5.1 for tyler)

Shough puts the ball down the field more, but it's doesnt mean hes getting better results from it. Intended air yards per pass attempt, i.e. average depth of target, again nearly identical (7.9 to 8.1 for tyler)

Shough leads his wrs more and gets more yac-again bullshite. Yac per completion is nearly identical (3.7 to 4.1)

Theres too much info out there to prove that you and many others are just in your feelings about Tyler "being so much better than spencer you just arent watching the games"

Are you arguing Spence is better? Hard to keep track of whatever it is you are arguing at this point.

Where do you find your stats? The ones you are quoting do require some serious digging but are really cool stats.

I do question these 2 stats. Not stating that Spencer's is so much worse/better than Shough; just questioning the accuracy of what they consider a bad or on-target throw. Both QBs have had tendency of putting the ball behind the intended target a lot. Rattler's stick out more because the team had a few missed TDs early in the season because of this

He stands in there and takes a hit to deliver balls, while Rattler hasn't ever really done that.


BS. Rattler has done this multiple times. You are just denying it.

Rattler will never be a top QB but some of these comparisons, records, and stats with Shough are a fricking joke because all one has to do is look at who each played. That is essentially the NFL at its heart. Not just who but when. The only cupcake Rattler played in 2024 was the Raiders. This year Arizona and Giants. Shough played Carolina, Miami and Atlanta.

Shough got 3 this year and is 1-2 in those so far. So while he's much better than Rattler, it's not translating to wins which is what was brought up numerous times when discussing Rattler.

Carolina has a winning record and just beat the Rams. Tampa has a winning record and has won the division since 2021. The Dolphins have won 5 of their last 6.

“Spence” is 1-14 in the NFL and finished his senior college year at 5-7.
