Jameis Winston played a heck of a game against the Saints!!!

When Jameis threw the pick 6 tonight, I had an "aha" moment (that might not actually be that, but worth throwing out for debate). Jameis is the Bret Favre of bad teams. I looked up some stats before posting, I was curious how their per game stats matched up.

We all know about Favre's Superbowl win and 3 MVPs. He was a "gunslinger", never saw a pass his arm didn't think it could complete. He played for a. great franchise and benefited greatly. Brett's career record is 199-123. He completed 62% of his passes, averaging 33 passes per game played. During this time he averaged 1.69 TDs and 1.12 INT's per games played.

Jameis has thrown some fastballs, bombs and of course the pick 6 tonight. It's kind of a microcosm of who he is. Jameis has played for mostly bad teams, his record is 36-48 (which will change after tonight wraps up). He has completed 61% of his passes and averaged 30 passes per game played. During this time he has averaged 1.45 TDs and 1 INT per game played.

I'll stick with my aha. Jameis' game resembles the way Favre played. I'm not making an argument that Jameis is Favre. But watching him play makes me think of John Madden's favorite QB.

POST post edit:

Add another pick 6 and a redzone interception on top of it. This is Jameis. 4 TDs, 2 pick sixes, 497 passing yards, loss.
