It’s feeling like the Bucs moving on from Winston would be our best bet.

I hope Marvin gets the Dallas job( Rooney rules say they have to at least interview a minority) and hires Andy to play behind their top o-line. I guess he will break records then. 


RE: Veteran Andy > Rookie Joe Burrow - Wes Mantooth - 01-05-2020

A JN poster inserted into real life conversation...

Bob - The burgers here are really great!
Sarah - They really are. I always go with the Double Decker.
Catmandude - Those aren't 1/4 pound patties!
Bob - Huh? Did someone say they were?
Catmandude - Well, theyre not! And these milkshakes aren't the best in the world either!
Bob - .....
Sarah - What do you think of your burger, Catmandude?
Catmandude - I just think a good steak is always better than a good burger. That's all.

‐--------------------------

Bill - The original Diehard is the best in the series.
Dave - Tough to argue against the first, but I like 2 a little better.
Catmandude - You guys are nuts if you think the 3rd is the best. Its not even as good as 4!
Bill - What?
Dave - Yeah, what the hell? No one mentioned the 3rd one.
Bill - So what's your favorite, Catmandude?
Catmandude - All Im saying is the guys been in other good movies. Hello, the 6th Sense!!!
Dave - No one said he hasn't.
Catmandude - Alright, but the Exorcist is scarier than the 6th Sense. Right?
Bill - The Exorcist? What does that have to do with Die Hard?
Catmandude - I was talking to Dave, Bill!!! Butt out!!!

Well, sure I would. Although I think it's highly unlikely I've never said it was impossible.

Lets look at that Colts team and Luck just for discussion's sake. What allowed them to go from a 2 to an 11 win team?

-They hired a new GM
-They hired a new head coach
-They hired a new OC
-They hired a new DC
-Their defense improved
-Their run game improved
-They added TY Hilton and Dwayne Allen as immediate starters.

Who did Andrew Luck replace? Was he an upgrade? Was the person he replaced as good as Dalton?

-The Colts QB(s) the year prior" Curtis Painter/Dan Orlavsky/Kerry Collins

So yes, Luck was a clear uograde. Those QBs not only are not NFL starters, they were all out if the league in short order.

So add improved QB to that huge list to possible reasons for the turnaround....

Can we turn it around? Maybe? Will we have potential reasons for improvement? I'm sure we will?  Is Burrow a clear upgrade over Dalton from day 1, as Luck was to Painter? I'm not so sure.

Look believe whatever you want. You've made it clear you don't like Andy. You've gone as far as to say he's selfish. I get it. I'm not telling you not jump on the Burrow train and be as excited as we all are.

I just don't think it's that crazy to say that we may not see an upgrade at the position until year 2. Dalton is a decent QB in my mind, and decent is usually a rookie's ceiling.

Agree to disagree...

Funny how you state Luck was a clear upgrade over the QB that did not finish dead last in passer rating of those that qualified, but question if Burrow can be an upgrade for a QB that did finish dead last.

Equally funny you point to all those changes on the coaching staff as to why he won more games. What made the colts think they could be an improvement over what they had in place?

Why did you leave out the part of my response that showed 4 of the last 1OA had a better rating than Andy did last year?

Sure, we can agree to disagree/

Simply because you cherry picked a vets career by showing his worst year. Maybe that is why.

It was his most recent season though, not just a random year. The argument was that Burrow wouldn’t be an upgrade over what Dalton did last year. That seems unlikely.

Let me quess. I should have went with 2015. 

Most likely better than going with his most recent when discussing if rookie Burrow can be better than vet Andy.


RE: Veteran Andy > Rookie Joe Burrow - Synric - 01-05-2020

It's a poor hypothetical by the OP trying to predict and compare a rookie's first season that hasn't happened yet to a veterans entire career.

That was not at all the argument and you know it. I've said numerous times that he may very well have better numbers in 2020 than Dalton in 2019. In fact, I think it's likely he will.

The argument is simple: 2020 Dalton (Veteran) is greater or equal to 2020 Burrow (Rookie)

I think the ceiling for Burrow in a good to great rookie season is about that of a middle range veteran, which is what I believe Dalton to be.

Some of you now think Dalton is the 36th, or 30-whatever, best option as a starter moving forward because that's what his most recent stats say. I disagree.

I think he's of the same skill he has been for years, which is average, but still well above where you're placing him.

Whatever. I'm done trying to re-explain simple points that continue to get twisted and rearranged.

If you, or anyone else, truly believes Dalton is now the 36th best starting option in this league then some of your a more delutional than I thought.

If Burrows plays with the same O-line and WRs then it is very likely he would not be an upgrade over Dalton.

You're just guessing, but I can guarantee you he would not do worse than 32 of 32.

We're not placing him there; the NFL is. Folks saying the QB that has finished 26th of 32 and 32nd of 32 the last 2 years and are asserting he's middle range are. And dare I say...delusional

Yeah, we’re talking about the Andy that got benched for a noodle armed 4th rounder, not “MVP” Red Rifle Andy.

Does anyone think Joe Burrow would have been benched for Ryan Finley?

So after 2015, you thought Dalton was the 2nd best QB in the NFL? Cool

No. He didn't finish the season.  But that's where he was rated

But he was better than he is 4 years later.

Because it won't fit his theory that because one great season five years ago is the standard the new QB should be held to. He wants you to believe the team has just as much upside with an aging QB that every team has a game plan to stop as a promising young record setting rookie. The Dalton rides again even as they ride off into the sunset.

No, because I can provide dozens of examples of QBs who had very bad seasons followed by very good seasons based on the coaching and talent around them.

Ken Anderson had a passer rating of 66.9 in 1980 with 6 tds and 13 ints.  The very next year he led the league in passer rating (98.4) and won the MVP with 29 tds and 10 ints.

In 2005 Brett Favre led the league in interceptions (29) with only 20 tds and had a passer rating of 70.9.  In 2007 he had 14 fewer ints, 8 more tds and a rating of 95.7.
