Ruiz gets absolutely butt fricked on both plays

I’m very glad I didn’t watch those replays.

Hope Rattler moves on somewhere else next season

---

Why? He’s the perfect backup QB on a cheap deal. With as good as Shough has been, there isn’t anybody that will be calling for him to get benched in favor of Rattler.

It should’ve been 3.

---

We can contend for the division next year with a few upgrades

We’ll have the same type of ascension that New England had this year.

I was hoping he could be a competent QB for the Saints for a few years when he was drafted. I’m now hoping he is at least pro bowl level, possibly all pro, on a consistent playoff team.

Its pretty clear you forgot Spencer playing some good ball.

---

He had 4 total TD’s over his last 5 games. If this is considered “good ball” for him, I’d hate to see when he struggles.

quote:

---

Shough has a higher int% and bad throw %.

---

Again, there is so much more to that than the numbers. Watch Shough lead receivers for YAC and not lead them into major collisions. Rattler had so many completions that hit the guy in the gut for a 7 yard gain on 3rd and 12. I think we can just agree to disagree, but the hidden stats and immeasurables are far greater for Shough IMO. Obviously you feel the opposite.

quote:

---

No, but they certainly do play them when their star players are injured. Bye weeks are a know metric you can plan for from the beginning. Points SHOULD NOT be your first tiebreaker. Especially in a H2H league.

---

I could not disagree more. Why would 1 week have more of a bearing than a season would? If Josh Allen and Bijan Robinson have a bye week 8 when I play someone who has everyone playing, why would I be punished for that?

quote:

---

They're essentially the same numbers as Spencer's prorated numbers.

---

The stats look somewhat comparable, but the eye test tells so much more. Shough just looks so much better than Rattler. There are no stats that show this, but the amount of dropped interceptions and/or INT’s thrown and called back by penalty, by Rattler are plenty. In contrast, some of the INT’s thrown by Shough weren’t his fault. Olave is solely responsible for at least 2, and his biggest drop that wasn’t an INT, was responsible for another win. Of course there were some drops by receivers from Rattler too, but we just can’t be watching the same games if you think that he looks more promising than Shough.

Idk what it's at now but he will win the award..I guarantee it.

you should put a lot more money on a guarantee.

quote:

---

even if Queen is good, will set us back a year or two at least

---

Why would the trade set us back? We got a very good player a year earlier than the pick would have been. And it’s rare for rookies to show out like Queen has. That player we would have gotten next year would probably take more time than Queen has to acclimate to the league.
