@oldrustysailor@MikeLaflAURA You're conflating raw stats with actual offensive efficiency. Putting up numbers in blowout losses after the defenses goes into prevent mode doesn't make it a better offense.
"The physical talent is there. He can make all the throws, he can create off schedule. And this is not a slight to anybody, but this offensive staff and Coach O'Connell, that's the untapped potential. He's gonna realize, I think, another level of development.”

@oldrustysailor@MikeLaflAURA Literally the same defense lol. The offense was better under Murray and had longer drives. That is why that split happened.
@JJMcGLAZER I own his jersey and still do not understand why he would ever be considered untradeable. If he is the piece needed to get someone like Giannis, you do it in a heartbeat.
@oldrustysailor@DirtCobain28 Scoring points and putting up stats in garbage time doesn't equate to actually being better. Again, Kyler had more wins in less than half of the starts. The same story for the Cardinals the entire time he was their QB. He elevated a garbage team to being ok/below average.
@oldrustysailor Again, 2-3 vs 1-12. And Carolina and New Orleans weren't even bad teams lol. Averaging better stats in blowout losses doesn't equate to them being a better team. The results straight up disprove it.
@oldrustysailor In his time as a Cardinal, they went 38-48-1 with Kyler, and 5-25 without Kyler. That includes last season, where the Cardinals went 2-3 with Kyler, and 1-12 with Jacoby. I find the on the field results more indicative of his talent than some teammates not vibing with him.
@AmaltheaGlass@SKORNorth@jzulgad Peliserro wouldn't float out him being traded as speculation unless he's been told it might happen. As wrong as these guys are on a lot of takes, this is a pretty accurate read of the situation.
@JordanTSilveira I respect you for admitting to being a JJ fan rather than pretending to be a Vikings fan who would switch teams just because 1 guy doesn't work out for them.
