This isn't really what Barton was doing, but if I had to rank the QBs on where I expect them to finish in QB Passer Rating (assuming they play the whole year) 


Looks realistic to me although I dont really know what to expect from Brennan.

I could not care less. I don't know enough about either. I'm just pointing out the flaws in your argument.

So you are arguing that. Good to know.

Myles Brennan will be in the top 3 for passing yards and passing touchdowns. Anybody want to bet against this?

A big part of passer rating is the one you keep on obsessing over, int %.

Of course you don’t even understand the contradiction.

You can’t trash Passer rating and then talk up big part of it without contradicting yourself. Int % is one of the flaws of the rating.

If not, what happened to Burrow after the 2018 season to transform him into the runaway 2019 Heisman winner?


Uhm...go back and look at LSU's final three games of the season in 2018 when suddenly Burrow's numbers shot up and he became statistically the third-best QB in the country.

2018 was a transition season for LSU. As LSU intended to transition to the spread offense in 2018. The transition went slower than anticipated for a number of reasons like Joe Burrow didn't really have enough time before the season to learn the offense, the receivers in the early part of the season ran the wrong routes almost as often as they ran the correct routes, and the offensive line was atrocious.

Nonetheless, when Burrow was finally getting up to speed, the receivers were finally also running the correct routes 100 percent of the time, and the offensive line was finally starting to gel, Steve Ensminger began experimenting with 6 man protections and 5 man protections in spread formations and that's when suddenly Joe Burrow's statistics shot up into the top three of all QBs in college football.

Hence, those of us, unlike you who paid close attention to LSU, knew Joe Burrow would have an incredible season in 2019 and exactly as he did.

Joe Brady did contribute along with Ensminger and Burrow to the creation of the offense from scratch, but Brady's biggest contribution to the success of LSU was to the receiver corps.

The legend that Joe Brady was superman is a media-created and generated myth. It made for a nice story to sell newspapers, but nonetheless, it mostly hype and wasn't true.

Touchdowns are good.

Interceptions are bad.

Passer rating is flawed as a metric.

None of that is contradictory.

You're basically saying that if someone dislikes the Democratic Party then they think all politics are bad because the Democratic Party is a big part of politics.

The only thing I take from that list is that the QB play in the league looks to be wayyy down next year.


Well, what else could be expected without Burrow and Tua?

Yet you only focus on one of them.

Int % is also a flawed metric. That’s partially why passer rating is flawed.

Not all ints are evidence of a bad pass, just as not all tds are evidence of a great pass.

Sometimes a good pass is intercepted, and a bad pass is a td.

13. Myles Brennan, LSU


Just say you can’t rank him because you don’t know enough. A RSJR 4 star QB with a rocket arm and NFL WRs including the Belitnekoff winner in LSU’s system isn’t going to finish 13th. That’s silly. And, he looked really good when he came in last year. Brennan played a lot of 4th qtrs when LSU had big leads.

Nah! If he isn't improved already, he isn't ever going to improve.

Tbh I don't really care if it did or not. I'm just saying it's unfair to say that Wake had no talent, especially in one of their better seasons in school history


The level of talent doesn't matter so much. What matters more than anything else was the piss poor level of competition he played against.

4th out of 14 in the sec.

14th out of 14 in the acc.

As you can see, one had a deficient supporting cast a lot more often than the other.
