Simple. Fromm has not shown so far that he can come from behind and win us a close game in a hostile environment. Eason has...multiple times.


At first I thought this was just a troll post, but I will play. While your criteria is legitimately one aspect to consider, it is just one of many aspects. My perspective: I think any objective observer can see that Fromm has better command of the offense, makes quicker decisions and throws more accurate passes. He needs to work on dumping a pass to the sidelines instead of making ill advised runs when a play breaks down but then that's how Eason got hurt in the first place. Overall Fromm has simply shown that he is the better QB in spite of the fact that Eason has the benefit of an entire season of experience.

I don't think we will be able to say that for sure until we see more than 2 series from Eason this year.

The offenses are completely different from this year to last year - namely because we are running the ball very well now and we haven't had to play from behind much at all (credit to an improved defense!). Eason was asked to do much more much earlier in his career because we couldn't run it ( 55 attempts in his 3rd game). It isn't a fair or very logical comparison.
