Two quarterbacks:

16/22, 127 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs, 86.7 rating, 20 rushing yards, 2 TDs
15/20, 128 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs, 91.2 rating, 70 rushing yards, 1 TD

Both QBs won. The first (Josh Allen) got kudos. The second (Jalen Hurts) got slammed, even though he played in worse conditions.

Also, apparently Brown is the victim of the passing game for his two drops on perfect balls.

If Brown had caught those Hurts wouldn’t have been so crucified. Something is up with Brown right now and he hasn’t been electric.

100%. Plus, now that reporters have video, they can find tons of examples of QBs missing open receivers. But this is what social scientists call “anecdotal evidence.” We actually have Jalen’s data, and it’s very good! He’s throwing less, but at a high completion rate, with few interceptions.

I get your point, but the stat sheet does not include the 7 sacks that he took, one of which was a safety and another that knocked them out of FG range. If you account for that yardage, 15/20 for 65 yards doesn't look quite as impressive.

Yes, but Josh Allen didn’t have a SEVENTY yard scramble for a touchdown!

Hey @jimmykempski.bsky.social do you know that the 1 star is better than the 3 star? At least in hockey. It's "first" and "third", not a counting stat

jimmykempski.bsky.social•42 days ago

I am aware, and this has been pointed out to me all year. However, I think the best player should get 3 stars, because 3 > 1.

Fair enough. I suppose it's only an inspiration from Hockey so you can change as you see fit. As a Canadian we are obligated to point out that you are wrong though!
