Shough sitting real pretty on this graph basically almost the same as potential MVP Stafford and around the same area as other great QBs like Lamar, Love, and Dak.

  1. It’s not really true on this one, but always interesting to me that Rattler always comes out looking pretty okay on these charts. He’s a decent player, but he played it very safe at all times so his advanced metrics make him look a bit better than he is IMO.

  3. I’m bad at math so please ELI5: does this graphic mean that Joe burrow was the most accurate passer this season?

  5. Who makes a graph this way. Lesser to Higher should be Down to Up and Left to Right, respectively, ffs.

  6. And that was while leading comebacks, having the best passer rating on third downs, and the most Y/A in the fourth quarter. This chart doesn’t tell how really good he is.

  7. Shough for Burrow would be a super interesting trade proposal for both sides. The fact that many prolly wouldn’t want us to do it speaks to just how good he’s been so far

  9. I feel like rattler is a top 32 qb. Shough is our guy but I still like rattler a lot. I’d like to see him on a team like the Vikings and see how he looks

  10. I mean, this is throwing to PS guys as well so having to fit the ball into ever narrowing windows.

  12. A few takeaways:

    1. Shough is already in the top half of accurate passers after nine or so games despite poor interior protection and decreasingly capable receiving options. Right now, he’s the best QB from the 2025 class. 

    2. The outliers are meaningful. Burrow continues to be a generational talent wasting away in a terrible system. Sanders, on the other hand, struggled even worse than I thought. Clearly, we made the right choice in April. 

    3. Penix is still far from ready. His troubles alone will keep Atlanta from getting a top coaching prospect.
