At best I see it as a wash (Heinicke's stats were only very slightly better) and that is at best, it's more likely a down grade.

Their td and int were the same. To me it is about QBR Jacoby was a solid 60 which was 8th best in league. Taylor was a woeful 44.8. I am not saying this is a send us to playoffs move but the cost versus production is worth it.

Heinicke has a higher passer RTG (So everyone but ESPN would rank him higher). QBR is strictly an ESPN formula that some have criticized. Weird thing you'd think is QBR would be reflected directly with won/loss record as it is tied to points, importance of plays etc. Yet Heinicke had a much higher win/loss rate. Given that one would think Brisset would have a lower QBR.

Passer rating doesn't take into account the impact the WR has on a play while QBR focuses exclusively on the QBs impact on any given play. Regardless if you think they are relatively comparable or even if TH is slightly better is he worth 20 mil for 2 yrs? I'd prefer the 8 mil for one player. Let's hope he is there to provide insight and a guiding veteran force to Sam and nothing more. He has experience that TH cannot provide Sam and I think that plus cost is the most important factor.

experience at being 18-30 as a starter, sure.

Its my opinion, yall dont have to agree, try suffering through watching every game he played last year. The dude is a bum, period. Nothing to see here. If he sniffs qb1, like i said, we're screwed, see ya next year.

I can't speak for everyone but I don't expect or want him to start. Who would you prefer to sign as a FA back up?

Did you watch all the Commanders games?

I'm surprised how split we all are on if Brissett is an improvement or not. I'm in the definitely improved camp.

That was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I apologize if that post came off a bit dickish.

We'll just have to agree to disagree on Brissett. I think he's better than Heinicke.

I think we all agree, HOWELL WIN THE JOB BABY!!!
