Mediocre QB debate

Kirk Cousins and Jimmy Garoppolo are pretty meh.

I think you are stretching "mediocrity" to far into good.    While Kirk isn't a great  QB, his numbers are better than mediocre.  

Last 3 years TD/INT:

30/10

26/6

35/13

69% completions.

 

I think, in the NFL, mediocre has to align with average.   

 

To the OP's post:

I think Darnold has been better than Lock.  Small sample size from both but Darnold played for the Jets which is the worse team of the 2.  Their TD% and INT % is almost identical.

Drew Lock is less than mediocre, he will be without a job by season end, even by season start maybe.

Darnold is mediocre with upside, let's see what Carolina can do with him. 

 

Andy Dalton is the perfect mediocre fit, no upside, also mediocre floor level, you know what you gonna get it, but it's not that pretty.

Good call.  Hes the basis of the "dalton scale".  The very definition of median.  As long as your guy is above the dalton meridian. You have a chance.

    • You know who is also kicking better?   Chase McLaughlin.   
    • Not trying to over simplify but it is pretty simple. SS calls plays that he believes will work against a certain defense and he has confidence his players will execute that play. The results right now are that his players are NOT capable of executing those plays on a consistent basis enough to win games. The only question moving forward is, do we have good enough players to start to execute more consistently or not and is SS making it as easy as possible for players to be consistent. It's not just a talent thing. It's a attitude and smart thing and then the level of talent. Most of the time, the best players are the smartest players with the right attitude. How talented they are is a bonus. My point, i question our teams attitude and football intelligence as much as I question their talent. Ex.....Stopping the run is as much attitude as it is talent. A big part of why JT is JT, is because of his intellegence.
    • Thanks for the updates.  I made my "first pass" projected picks based on where the players are ranked on tankathon right now.  Obviously, subject to change!
    • He hasn't  been that good other than the 1 game he won last year.
    • The biggest problem is that the rest of the team is playing like trash around the rookie QB.    Of course the essentially rookie QB that has played 6 NFL games is going to be a rollercoaster.  He's known to have accuracy issues, and is for some reason being forced to be a pocket passer.    When the highest paid O-line in the league can't block, that's problem.  When the WR's can't catch passes that bounce off their hands, that's a problem.  When the highly invested in $$ D-Line (like 5 1st or 2nd rd players) can't block and LB's get consistenly washed, that's a problem.  When the highest paid kicker in the league can't kick and gets hurt constantly, that's a problem.  When the defensive scheme is to "bend not break" but the bends are to the tune of 100 yards a series, that's a problem.   Now's the time to strike in other areas while you have a QB on a rookie contract. Actually, this all should've been figured out already by the GM and all positions should've been rock solid by now.
