Telesco Likes Internal Options At QB - Post Rivers Era QB Discussion

[blueman]

Wow just wow. I guess you drank the coolaid hard. Maybe Rivers was stressed by being harassed In the backfield all the time. That and the coaching unable to figure out how to mitigate pressure can drive any QBs to look worn down.

Talk about Koolaid, lol.

Edit: Whoops, you got this ghost. Nice write up and words from Lynn.

Coach Lynn also is advocating for the path of least resistance. If the Chargers are going to ask me to take this leap of
faith with Taylor at QB, they better design an offense around Taylor's skill-set, and to get the ball out of his hands and into his playmaker's hands.

I see no way this team wins 10 game with Taylor or Stick as our starting QBs. And we won't be bad enough to get Lawrence either so if we pass on a QB this year, we are really rolling the dice about what QB will be available on the fringe of a top 10 pick.

I'm not going to say Tyrod is the long term answer (Because he's not) or even the guy that we should roll with next year.

But Tyrod was over .500 as a starter in Buffalo with a much less talented supporting cast.

If we fix up the line a bit and don't get quite so unlucky with injury/close losses it is definitely possible to go 9-7/10-6 with Tyrod as the QB.

Stick starts, lol.

I mean if Stick starts that means 1 of 2 things:

- He progressed much faster and beyond what was ever expected of him already (Which we should be happy about if this is the case)

OR

- Tyrod got hurt preseason and our FO already missed out on all the top FA QB's and in the draft so we have to go with Stick as the only QB familiar with our system.

Career interception percentage.

Tyrod Taylor ... 1.47 %
Patrick Mahomes ... 1.64%

'Nuff said.

You can cherry pick all kinds of stats to make a point. Here's a couple:

Mahomes was sacked on 3.9% of his pass attempts
Taylor was sacked on 9.4% of his pass attempts

Mahomes threw TD passes on 6.9% of his pass attempts
Taylor threw TD passes on 4.0% of his pass attempts

So Taylor gets sacked 241% more often than Mahomes and throws TD passes on 57% less of his passes.

Do you really think I was doing anything other than goofin' ?

Hell no, no sane person would compare the two. I just like stats!

We had a profound
5 point per game
drop off in scoring,
from 2018 to 2019.

That was because Lynn, our RB coach- offensive genius took over the offense and began running the ball alot more.

With the oline not opening any holes, Gordon and Eck were constantly running into brick walls on 1st or 2nd down, running down the clock.

The scoring drop off lands squarely at the feet of our offensive genius (I never had my own playbook) Lynn.

I am convinced that you have watched some Tyrod tape, and are willing to put this all in context.

A very reasonable post
in substance and in tone.

Thank you.

Agreed.
