    The Ravens Defense is ranked 30th and their Offense is ranked 2nd.

    Actually He's 1-1 unless He played both games last year. Then he's 1-2 with the only win being against Mason, and Duck.
    His 1st Year He didn't start till We played the ravens twice, next year No Ben, and He only played one game against Us, Last Year We swept them, and Now this Year We haven't played Him Yet.

    Let's look at what is typical for him throwing the football. Let's look at this season as I constantly here how unbelievable he is. Even from Steelers fans.
    Now nobody knows how to calculate QB Rating and what it even means but lets look at what goes into his typical QB rating.
    I threw out the best and worst games of the season so we can see what's typical.

    87 avg QB Rating
    1.125 TD's per Game
    0.75 INT's per game(He's thrown 1.5 TD's for every 1 INT) BTW, I did the same with Ben(who everyone thinks sucks) and his ratio is 4 td's to 1 int.
    229 passing yards per game
    6.1 yards per attempt
    comp% 52.28

    Are those elite QB numbers? Not so much

    Can he run? Yeah

    Thursday night vs Miami:

    73.6 passer rating
    1 TD(very close to typical)
    1 INT(very close to typical)
    238 passing yards(It's really close but actually better than typical)
    5.3 yards per attempt(0.8 yards off from typical) That's because of the pressure I talked about no doubt.
    comp% was 60.47(better than typical)

    Watching actual weekly performances(I watch them all) and not some amorphous stat like QB rating will give you a better idea of what is typical with him.

    That was actually a fairly typical game for him, minus the rushing yards. That's why I said it should be a blueprint. If you can deduct even half of his rushing yards and TD's he's nothing to worry about.

    You're correct was on my phone and some stat site that came up said 2-2 for some reason. I couldn't remember off the top of my head so I went with it.

    Good assessment. The Ratbirds are thin at key positions on offense and you have to exploit it to beat them. Jackson was sacked and harassed all night. The Fins had a great game plan.

    I was watching that thing though and that offense was bottled up until the 4th and late in the 4th at that! The NexGen chart doesn't break it out by quarter.


    Wasn't until late that those stats started to pile up. Starting the 4th they showed the chart that said 17 yards for the Ravens in the half.

    Don’t agree with your methodology. He has a 93.1 QB rating on pace to rush for 1200 yards and he’s better than Ben. His problem is turnovers. QBR is designed to ignore garbage stats. LJ is #12, Ben is #26. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2021/passing.htm
