I said he had talent enough to be an NFL QB and landed in the perfect storm to get his chance. Can he take the job & run with itlikely not but I said I preferred him over Kellen Mond's situation.killer_of_giants wrote: ↑Mon Oct 11, 2021 7:42 am mills had the best game by any rookie so far this season, or am i forgetting something?
Somehow that became I said he was future Pro Bowler which makes for an easy gag punch line. Especially after his all time epic horrific game the week before this. Of course that was in a driving rain against the Bills D that just made Mahomes look ordinary.
Now that being said his good stat line vs "THE GENIUS" D was a byproduct of a cpl of fluke plays that turned into big gainers. But at least he was able to go toe to toe against Belichick who usually dedtroys rookie QBs to show he can be a competent NFL QB albeit more likely as a backup. Nkt thinking he's the 2nd coming of Brady (we all know that MAC is)
We hear about how great belichick is vs rookie QBs, and we see the stats over and over again.
I wonder how rookie QBs do in general, vs how they do against belichick. Far as I can tell, rookie QBs don’t regularly win a ton of games, in fact my strategy for redraft leagues with Team D, for decades has been to stream defenses vs rooks, even ones I’m high on.
Anyone have numbers on this? If not maybe I’ll dig em up and report back later in the week.
