Now you are doing it also. You win. You tell me the exact % he is better as measured by whatever made up system you have and I'll edit my original comment to suit you.

I get what you are saying but the truth is anyone not trying to argue for arguments sake would get the gist of the message. If I said 2.75 times better or 4.125 would that make it better? Is there an exact number or should that be a debate that also?

So do you not agree that Allen is better than Peterman? Did I say Allen was doing a great job throwing the ball? What exactly are you saying that I didn't already say?

Exactly. I was thinking the same thing ........ boy that Jags game was awful. Then I went back and looked at it and despite that awful 2nd qtr he actually fought back. My biggest problem with EJ was that he couldn't hit anything down field to save his life. That is what made Tyrod such a refreshing change (no one here seems to remember how bad it was). Taylor came in and hit the deep ball almost every game when we had Watkins and Goodwin. Then Dennison comes along, Taylor is gone, now Daboll comes in and now we might not see 5 passing TD's all season. Someone said he might be better than Allen. I like Allen don't get me wrong, and I think he has it, but if he can't hit receivers deep better than EJ did then maybe he isn't any better than EJ. Hopefully time will prove that he is better.

He threw 49 times for under 200 yards and 3 picks. Help or no help that is horrendous. Anderson threw for almost 300 the week before against the Pats. Anderson looked like an NFL back up. Peterson looked like a good reason to clean house. Sad part is he has looked the same every single time they've trotted him out there.

I'm just saying for too long we are throwing the baby out with the bath water. McDermott seemingly can keep this team competitive on defense but can't tell his b-hole from a hole in the ground when it comes to offense. I'm saying if there is an OC who comes available that has a moderately proven track record it would not hurt my feeling to see Daboll get dumped. I stated long before and players on defense stepped foot on the field that McDermott would turn the defense around because you could see from his experience that he was capable of it. Many were saying the defense would be swiss cheese. It was evident early on the defense was a ton better. The second we hire a real offensive talent to coach you will see a difference. Whether you have a roster full of pro bowlers or not a well coached unit will show up and look at the very least capable of being competitive.

It isn't that McDermott is so terrible, by himself. It's that he is constantly married to an offensive staff that is wholly and entirely incapable of evaluating or coaching. They are seeking out and retaining players on offense that are terrible and they have traded away or let players go that were far better than anything they've replaced them with. The promise was that everyone they were replacing was replaceable and inferior and that bringing in different players was the answer. The truth is that the coaching on offense is sub par and that each player they let go or replaced only increased the talent deficit until we now have the most inept offense in the NFL and it's not even close.

I'm going to put on my flame suit and go out on a limb and say maybe (just maybe) if Rex had one more season and one more draft he might have been able to turn the corner with his defense. His defense was always dependent on safety play and he always had injuries and problems at safety. Mario absolutely didn't help either. Either way the teams were pretty close to being good but just needed something to get over the hump. Especially on defense.

Just two seasons ago we set a record for top 5 points in this franchise's history scoring points. Just because we didn't throw for 300 yards per game everyone complained. Defense was giving up almost 24 ppg. We had that offense with any resemblance of this defense and we would easily make the playoffs. We made it last year with that turd Dennison at OC.

"Misery loves company"

Not sure I'd add that to a list of positives.

There is no reason a rookie project QB should make any team 100 times better but Allen does here. Why? Our offense is so bad that even with his limited experience he is light years better than the absolute turds (Peterman) they are marching out there. The talent evaluation on the offensive side of the ball consists of coin flips and former Panthers and that's about it.

Someone explain to me again why Ivory isn't starting?

No .......... Peterman is averaging 5.8 yards ............ nevermind. That's 5.8 per rush. He is averaging 3.8 per pass.

OMG

Almost have my answer ........

36 passes 126 yards. Even without the picks that is horrible. Even with garbage receivers that is horrible.

Sad but true.

Can Allen just throw the ball with his left hand? I mean bring him in and give him a shot.

I'm only hanging around because I want to see if Peterman fans have as many excuses as he has interceptions. Funny enough they are both going pretty strong.

Two questions. Will Peterman break 50 throws and if he does will he break 200 yards?

31 passes for 127 yards ................ ouch.

I agree who would have known. That and Mahommes has Reid who is a very QB friendly coach. Let's face it McNabb was not accurate but played well in the system. All that said the level of futility here is staggering.

Mahommes is averaging more TD's per game than we have for the whole season. It's not even close.

How many games has the QB been the leading rusher this year? We might as well run the triple option.
