Titans Sign Trevor Siemian

What is that worth?
If he had more losses than wins, he would still be looked at as a better option than Woodside. It’s his experience people want.

 

Positive experience is better than negative experience. A winning attitude is important as well as the confidence that comes from winning. While we all agree that winning record is not the sole measure of any player, there is an intangible benefit that comes from winning vs losing at the QB spot.

 

That’s where we disagree then.
If a QB is good, his experience playing is the value not whether he won or lost. We’ve seen that over history although the league and fans don’t have any patience anymore in today’s game, either win immediately (regardless of team around) or be tossed aside possibly without even a second shot.

Thill is a great example. Dolphin fans were done with him (wide majority anyway) because he wasn’t winning. Some titans fans were skeptical because he hadn’t been a “winning QB” in Miami.
Then he played and not very surprisingly, that record was irrelevant and he was the top QB in the league.

after thinking about it, Siemian is hardly a winning QB himself. If given more chances to start in Denver or NYJ, he’d surely be a losing QB.

 

Whatever, I’ve lost patience with this pointless argument...

 

I've always favored an experienced vet as a backup. As the backup, they don't get the same game preparation as the starter. They're busy running the scout team all week. They need to be able to put on the helmet and lead a team without throrough preparation. It's a mental thing at that point.

 

A very smart pick up here....Siemian has a lot of starts under his belt, and the numbers are well within the range of a quality backup. Also lets not forget he mostly played on bad football teams. I also like the fact he can throw touchdowns regularly when in the red zone....not many back ups have that quality. Smart pick up.

 

yea unless your No.2 is a high pick youre grooming I def like a seasoned vet over a late rookie all day

 

its just a plus that he not only has experience, but he has the ability to will a team to wins..

 

Only the sith deal in absolutes

 

I would sign the Sith to go to the Bowl. But not over 12 mil.
