The QB position

That should not happen.  A guy who is good enough to be close to the top 10 for 14 of his starts should not post 2 games with a sub 30 rating.

Here are the passer ratings for the other 4 QBs in the last decade to have had more than one sub 30 passing game in a season

Mark Sanchez '09.......63.0
Geno Smith '13..........66.5
Matt Cassell '09..........69.9
Ryan Fitzpatrick '16....69.6
Dalton '17..................86.6


Totally OT trivia question.  Over the last 20 years Michael Vick has the second most sub 30 games with 5.  Four other QBs are right behind him with 4, but the guy with the most has twice as many (10) as Vick.  He was a starter every season of his ten year career going to the playoffs four times and the Pro Bowl once.

Jake Plummer? He had a brief career (retired on top of his game), made the playoffs a few times with the Broncos. Had some ugly years on a Cardinals team devoid of talent, so plenty of chances for ugly games. 

I was initially going to say Jay Cutler, but I'm pretty sure it's Plummer.
