The bolded narrative is kinda played out and not backed up by advanced stats my man. Jameis was actually among the leaders in the NFL with the lowest garbage time yards, especially as in regards to the amount of yards he has thrown. I think only like 400 or so yards could be counted as garbage time stats. Did he make mistakes? For sure but even with those kicking and defense cost them like 4 games. And that 30/30 BS wouldn't have happened if if his kicker didn't miss a those XPs/Field Goals to cause the game to go to OT, where the pass was tipped at the LoS and we know the rest.Actually if you compare Trubiskys 2018 season to early 2000s he would have been a top 3 qb most years. Even his slump year he would've been right outside top 10. This year his ratings would have been back as a top 10 qb, for early 2000 standards. Should we try to get him in the off-season? lol
Instead of comparing him to a young Brady how about we compare him to a 43 year old Brady, who definitely looked like he declined last year. He was getting same criticisms as Brees, about how his wideouts had to be college open in order for him to take a shot, instead of the tight windows they were accustomed to seeing him throw into. He's on pace for 4400 yards 38 TDs 12 interceptions. It's almost the same damn team. Yea Winston had 5000 yards but it's alot of garbage time stats and trying to dig the team out of the hole he put them in.
And pacing is a crazy thing; how many yards and touchdowns was he on pace to have last season before falling off a cliff statistically?
We can say that it is the same team but the offensive scheme is far from it. This is far from the offense that Arian's had Jameis running last year. Dinking and dunking was non existent in the offense last year and majority of the routes were on 5 - 7 step drops, not to mention that route options were still there and on longer routes. Tape backs all of this up.
We are in a wait and see on this one. Time will tell but I know who the same thing could have been said about before coming to NO and now he is a first ballot. Just sayingI'm trying to get the facts straight about Jameis's past. That and nothing more. Yet I feel like I have to defend my self from generalizations. Its a common theme with any subject.
- I do not know if he can play better in the future or not (ie. is he fixable)
- Im not against him staying. If there is a chance he can eliminate his errors then I'd like to see Payton work with him. I don't think the cap makes it likely though
- Teddy is awesome. I wish he could be our 2021 QB. He's not a HoFer or anything but he would have been perfect for this team. Unfortunately the timing was just off. I was all for Teddy over Taysom when Brees went out.
