    Does this mean Mett is going to spare his life?

    So you want your rookie QB to have a completion % BELOW 60% and you want him to have more turnovers than TD's? What were Russell Wilson's rookie stats? Which would you prefer?

    Wrong again. He had a 64.9% complete in college and less than 60% in NFL. He threw for 3082yards in college and 1400 in the NFL. Even on a per game average, he threw for a higher avg in college. He had a higher yards per attempt in college (10+ to 7.9) and threw 22 TD's in college vs 8 in the NFL and had 8 INT's in college and only 7 in the NFL (but in 6 games). If you go by ratio, he had a 22 TD to 8 turnovers in college where he has more turnovers than TD's in the NFL.

    So in what stat did he outperform his college stats?

    Because what you were screaming about Mariota being bad about (a 20% drop in completuion percentage in the RZ is what Mett had, not Mariota). It can't be important for one guy and not the other when the stat you throw out falsely is really for the guy you are saying is a top 8 QB. And IF you believe Mett having a 20% drop in completion percentage (to only 46%) is meaningless, how can you claim it has ANY validity to you bashing someone else using the same reasoning. Doesn't make sense or is hypocritical.

    You're right, it doesn't mean much as it's only projected off less than half a season and makes no mention of the sub-60% completion percentage or worse...his high number of turnovers (more turnovers than TD's is BAD).

    Top 15? You've been saying for months any qb could get top 8 stats!!!

    What you fail to realize is that the Titans will either have Mariota as a competent starting QB or Mett will get his chance here again. I don't think we could see Mariota be bad for 3-4 years and Mett not given a chance and simply let go.

    Nah. I just gotta roll with the punches. Mariota is the guy now and I'm a loyal fan. Does that mean when he looks like dog **** tha I won't say "where's Mett?"- absolutely not.

    But Mett was also only semi decent compared to who he was playing after... I mean hasslebeck was better than locker... And whitehurst?

    I'll give you the team was decimated by injuries and I wouldn't have minded going into the season with Mett at the helm. But we are past that option now.

    Mariota continues to have rave reviews from his peers even into the pros now... Let's see what happens

    Also here's my thing....

    I was not excited about drafting LW... Seemed too much of a situation type player who played to his strengths of being a space eater and did his job when the play came to him. Literally zero interest with that pick.

    Mariotas college tape is deceiving. You have to find where he's doing stuff that translates but he does do those things just not as regularly as you'd like. Bumpy rookie year? Probably.

    And Cooper? Not a specimen and more of a Reggie Wayne type player. White was my WR outta the bunch because I thought his play accented what METT excelled at
