I'm neutral and don't wish to vote but here are the two QB's career stats as starters. I deliberately left out the name of which QB is which but you can figure that out on your own.
To make a more informative choice, you can look at these closer to decide who is more efficient at what and who is in the red and who is in the black. (some key points to consider when making your QB vote on this poll).
As starters (again I wont mention any names) one of the quarterbacks above is in the red, while the other is in the black:
QB B Rating 94.4 to 82.8 (
negative 12 notches) from 1st to 2nd half.
QB A Rating 83.9 to 91.1 (
positive 7.2 notches) from 1st to 2nd half.
QB B Rating 96.9 to 68.9 (
negative 28 notches) from 1st to 4th qtr
QB A Rating 76.6 to 86.3 (
positive 9.7 notches) from 1st to 4th qtr
QB B's 78.7 Rating vs
QB A 100.2 (
negative 21.5 notches) head-to-head 2 min. half rating
QB B Rating 95.4 to 82.0 (
negative 13.4 notches) from ahead vs behind
QB A Rating 88.8 to 91.1 (
positive 2.3 notches) from ahead vs behind
Trivia Question:
Which QB would you choose?
(Scene 1). There are two QB's that had success but also made mistakes in their 1st 10 games of 2007, one more than the other, one with a 76.5 rating and the other with a 90.4 rating (on account of 3 less Ints and a higher completion ration with slightly more yards), but both with equal number of TD's equal amount of scoring, requiring almost nearly the same passing yards per point scored (YPPS). Both QB's (with help from their teammates) go 5-5 (.500) for their first 10 games played.
(Scene 2). Both QB's head into week 12 5-5 (.500) with a wide open shot at the AFC West and a trip to the playoffs. And here's where it begins...(lights..camera...ACTION !)...
One of the QB's (and I won't mention his record) week 12-17 posted a passer rating of 87.0 (dropping a full 3.4 notches from his first 10 games) with a + 2 TD ratio (TD's - Ints + L/Fum), and required exactly 22.46 yards per point scored (YPPS) and propelled his team into a losing season.
The other QB (and I won't mention his record either) week 12-17 posted a passer rating of 93.0 (increasing his rating by 16.5 notches from his first 10 games) with a + 6 TD ratio (TD's - Ints + L/Fum), and required exactly 15.71 yards per point scored (YPPS) and propelled his team into the playoffs.
Which Quarterback Would you chose, which Quarterback would you want?
Hint:
QB A went to the playoffs,
QB B did not,
QB A posted a winning season
QB B did not.
