    Ok…Tebow has had some success in this league…he's won a playoff game on top of his 29 TDs and 9 interceptions.

    Tell me what Mallett has done that makes him a better QB than Hoyer or Tebow? Nobody is saying Tebow should be starting in the NFL…but that doesn't automatically make him a worse QB than Mallett, who has done NOTHING.

    He loves being a freak show without even realizing it. You should give him your moniker.

    Has no one yet made the point that lack of touch on passes may lead to more drops? All I see is receivers getting blamed for drops on passes from Mallet.

    That point has been made by everyone not named Bobby…he throws 100+ MPH to a RB that's 10 yards away.

    There's no excuse in dropping passes that hit you in the hands if you are in the NFL. None. Blaming "lack of touch" is short sighted....then again, we actually have people that think Tebow is a better QB so an incredibly low level of analysis isn't really shocking.

    Only when they were being defended by 3rd stringers playing a prevent style with a 3 man rush. Of course why take things like that into consideration amirite?

    I'll ask this for the 5th time, since every time I ask you, you forget to respond.

    What has Mallett done in the NFL that puts you above someone who has a higher YPA, higher rating, has actually won important games in the NFL…and has 29 TDs to 9 INT?

    Can you answer that?

    SMH, of course I don't. Just because you and a few others are spewing mindless football hot takes doesn't mean I own or wear a fedora.

    What has Mallett done in the NFl that puts him above Tebow? He's been a competent NFL QB. I know you won't agree....but the fact that you are even trying to argue otherwise sort of invalidates your opinion on everything football related.

    Again, no one expects you to understand, it's pretty clear that football's just not your game. Don't worry about it.

    Well, its not Mallet's either, so I guess we have something in common.

    Ryan Mallett has a career 66.2 QB rating. How has that proven to be a competent NFL QB?

    Don't be mad though. Your original assessment of Mallett was spot on when we traded for him.

    Doesn't count, was based on old info.

    And that 66.2 rating doesn't include today's game. Lulz

    Watched the Texans garbage at QB....

    So glad we took Clowney and Filo and not Mack and Carr like the Raiders.

    Kubiak and Wade are 4-0...

    How salty are you right now on a scale from soy sauce to Tony Chachere's Cajun Creole Seasoning?

    Nicely summed up. Tebow has proven to suck. Mallet had not yet proven he's above sucking. Hence put two sucks together and there's no point in even comparing them. They both suck until one or both proves otherwise.

    Well, yeah, of course it was....and it is now as well. No one is saying Mallett is some kind of great NFL QB, but comparing him to Tebow is pants on head r****ded. His accuracy isn't very good, never has been, but his quick release helps prevent sacks and if receivers hold on to the ball the offense moves pretty well. He needs to work on taking a bit of heat off of his passes and he needs to work on his accuracy, but he's significantly better than the Tebow's and Hoyer's in the league.

    People arguing with me when I'm being the voice of reason is nothing new though.
