    Do you realize only 5 qbs in the entire league met that criteria last season? Push the TO to 15, and its still only 10 guys.

    Your numbers are great for fantasy football leagues, but the NFL has 32 teams, so it's just not realistic to expect that. A more accurate threshold for starting qb would be about 3200, 20 and <15 to.

    I think there’s room for debate on the specific stats but I thinks it’s worth pointing out that Mariota has had back to back garbage seasons and to be considered the long term guy, he should be above the literal “avg” QB.

    Add a couple TD (10 reaches 29, 5 reaches 34) or yards (15 broke the 3800 mark, 12 broke 4K) and his TO numbers going up would still look impressive. 50TD and 15 INT is worth it over 27/14.
    Separately, not all his fault, but his sack numbers need to drop. The OL got another upgrade, that should help.

    If he phones in another 3K, 20 TD, 10INT, I’d give him the heave-ho outside staying onboard as backup.

    Didn’t he already beat Brees?

    What?

    Mariota needs to go out and win games. You’re obviously not a coach or former player because a qb should never go out looking to hit a “stat” margin. That’s stupid John Madden.

    That’s how you get unnecessary picks and turnovers.

    How incredibly stupid would you look if we won the Super Bowl and he didn’t have those stats.

    That’s why real football people don’t take you seriously

    I wish CJ would take me off of ignore. What is up with the obsession here?! lol. Beat Drew Brees? Who cares if he beat him and Brady for 1 game. Brees is light years ahead of Mariota in every aspect. Availability, accuracy, pocket presence, yards/TD’s, basically everything. Oh, and he has a Super Bowl ring. This dude can’t be serious....I don’t care if Mariota beats a good QB or team here and there....He loses ones he should or needs to win as well. And is a perennial .500 guy. 1 playoff appearance, and barely.....Give me a friggin break.
