Spencer Rattler Through 5 Games: 990 yards, 6 TDs, 1 INT, 67%…he’s not the problem🫵
37 comments
He got lucky a few times the last two games.
He doesn’t allow any YAC besides his one TD today.
Lot’s of his throws are inaccurate and he misses wide open receivers because he just tries to not make mistakes.
If that’s not a problem, the least he is not the reason we win any games.
He’s been fine but there is room for improvement. You’ve left out QBR and yards per attempt
I’m excited to see him push to ball down the field more as he gains confidence
He’s not the main problem, but he certainly isn’t the answer!
Main problem with the offense this season has been the lack of explosive plays downfield and too much dinking and dunking. Rattler has only averaged about 5.5 yards per attempt.
That’s… not good stats for a team that’s been losing for over 90% of the season
He may not be the problem but I don’t think he’s the solution either. Good dude but I’m just not sold on him being the starter for us for years to come.
He’s not the problem, but he needs to be the solution in order to be the longterm QB. I will say this, he’s a fighter and cares a ton. Happy for him and I hope he continues to improve.
Sholl ain’t.
I look forward to seeing get better and better. I think dude is going to be Mr bad mfkr.
Way worse QBs in the league straight up losing games for their teams. Geno, Browning, Cam, JJ give their teams no chance to win due to negative plays. Rattler ain’t going to lift the ship, but his play hasn’t sunk the boat. Settling for a lot of field goals ain’t great, but today was fine.
You forget to mention the lucky calls he’s been getting when he throws deep and the defense intercepts it. We’ve gotten a ton of those reversed fortunately, but he won’t always have that luck if his accuracy doesn’t improve.
He really gives us opportunities too just build and get playmakers we don’t need to go qb just keep building and Coach is bought into him
1st rule of leadership. EVERYTHING is your fault.
Not the problem, but also not the solution. We won today because of turnovers and the Giants being the worse team. Rattler isn’t single-handedly losing games for us but I have yet to be convinced he’s got “it.”
Let’s celebrate the win, not act like we just solidified our franchise QB because he’s average 1 win a year now
Folks always say he’s not the answer but who knows what will happen. Ratt turnaround can be the biggest comeback going. And possibly Saints will have 2 good qbs on the roster. He’s on pace for 20td and possibly 3k yds who knows. I’m buying into it and he’s just 25
The problem is our opponents score more than we do. If we fix that I think we win some games.
This was by far his best game and it’s no coincidence that it’s also a game where he wasn’t afraid to drive the ball down the field. He’s showing improvement and I think that comes with more comfort in the system and hopefully Kellen and Nuss coaching him up
He struggles with accuracy past ten yards.
1TD per game and under 200 yards passing from your QB isn’t the convincing stat line you think it is. It’s great for a backup but not for a starter.
At least, not a starter on a winning team. It’s about right for a team that’s 1-5.
It’s honestly kind of refreshing that I think most of us minus a couple of weirdo fanboys and a couple of over-haters have converged on “yeah he’s not very good but he’s ok I guess”
Could be worse.
As a point of comparison:
Alex Smith had 1 TD and 11 INTs as a rookie (9 games). Starting 16 games his second year, he had 16 TDs and 16 INTs. Completion percentage for those years was 50.9 and 58.1%.
He of course went on to improve drastically, and become a respected, dependable QB.
start shough! nice throw to shaheed tho!
I def respect the hard work and effort this dude been putting in he deserves credit
It’s actually amazing how many would-be INTs haven’t counted. Not necessarily against Rattler, maybe he knows its a freebie or maybe the INT can occur because of a penalty. But seriously it is amazing
So 7.2 points per game through the air and less than 200 yards is… what? Good?
Y’all seriously need to stop circle jerking this “fine at best” QB. One good pass today and y’all act like he won the game. Dude didn’t do anything with 4 turnovers. Grupe put up more points than Spence and Grupe can’t kick for shit.
A lot of people go after the offensive line, saying it’s bad, which is partially true but the good news– if you feel that way– is that only 40% of our offensive line is below-average. Fortunately it’s the cheapest 40% to fix.
>Giants turn the ball over 5 times, including a fumble return TD, and we win by 12
“This proves Rattler is good actually”
The problem is he can’t win games. He can only not lose games, which ultimately is a losing strategy.
He’s been pretty damn good I won’t lie
He plays not to lose but not to win. Line, play calling and whatever else can be considered but that stat line is pedestrian.
I bet you forgot to mention the stat that the Saints are DEAD LAST in YAC. Of course you did.
Receivers can’t get YAC when they aren’t led
What is the problem then because its not the OL
Moore sorts coaches conservative at times but this his first gig. U are seeing a young coach and qb grow. If ratt was just slinging it all over the place folks would complain let him grow. Then folks get mad when u compare him too hof well guess what before they were hof’s they went thru the same things . Drew issue with the chargers was he was trying to carry the team on his back so much that’s how he hurt his shoulder. Chargers didn’t see Drew as the future that’s why they drafted rivers and the rest is history.
He’s trash
bro has the gift, where his picks are just like butter, they slip out of defenders hands. I’ve never seen nothing like it, some kind of super power, I’ve seen at least a dozen of his throws that hit defenders right in the hands this season lmao.
