I do not care that he had two rushing touchdowns. I'm more concerned about this being a starting QBs stats.

Huh, so this is how the Jets are supposed to look like with competent QB play? Or last year. Rodgers has made a difference it seems so far. Let's see if that holds.

Look, it's the fucking Browns. The team Itself is the second mistake by the lake. Nothing adds up there. Cleveland is a place where subtraction makes the difference, and that's your takeaway. ;)


Oh I'll judge the Browns all day.

I wouldn't be shocked if this was a harbinger of things to come for Aaron Rodgers with him being an old quarterback coming off an Achilles tear.

In his defense, the Bucs usually roll out the red carpet for rookie QBs so they can get a jump
start on a highlight reel.

Bowles seems to be better about bucking that trend.

If not for Jayden Daniels giving the slightest hope, I would have expected Daniel Jones to be our QB in about 2 years.

And I see your judgement was picking those favored Browns over the 'boys Sunday. Might have went your way but once the Boys gave Dak the big contract the game's momentum came with it. That's why the Cowboys timed it that way. It's an old trick. Anyhoo, better luck next week, Tars.
