Not for me. He saw what it is like but habits become further entrenched with more repetitions. It is very hard to form decent habits in an offense like that. Putting a kid back there is not giving the kid his best chance to succeed IMO.

I agree 100% with this. Bradford would be a smart pickup for them IMO.

The Buffalo Bills’ offense isn’t just the worst in the NFL. It’s among the worst in NFL history, and so impossibly bad that no matter which of their three quarterbacks are playing, they have the league’s worst passing attack.

There are 44 quarterbacks who have thrown at least 10 passes this season, and the Bills’ three quarterbacks rank 42nd, 43rd and 44th in passer rating. Here’s how the bottom of the passer rating chart looks:

30.7 Nathan Peterman, Bills
56.0 Derek Anderson, Bills
61.8 Josh Allen, Bills
62.5 Sam Bradford, Cardinals
64.5 Tyrod Taylor, Browns

not sure Sam would be an upgrade for Buffalo...

Broncos quarterback Case Keenum started the year as a turnover machine, with at least one per game for the first eight games and a total of 11. Over the past three games, Keenum has had none.

Keenum: “I’m throwing it to our guys, not throwing it to the other team. Who knew?”

Shaggy struggled in his first four games at Denver but has played quite well since then.

Bear in mind that the Denver offence really struggled last year and now they have a new OC in former Vikings OC Bill Musgrave, as well as a new QB in Keenum.

The Broncos have been running a lot more play action passes and designed bootlegs of late, which raises the question of why they didn't do that at the start of the season. I suspect that it's simply a case where Musgrave didn't have a lot of confidence in his offence's ability to execute the plays - not just the play action passes, but also the off-tackle zone runs that set them up.

All of which is very similar to the situation in Minnesota with Kirk Cousins and John DeFilippo.

Stealing this from @vike daddy from the Packer thread.

Rodgers also avoids interceptions by taking sacks too often. In fact, if we add up every quarterback’s interceptions, incompletions, sacks and fumbles and compile them all into one stat we’ll call “bad plays,” Rodgers is actually the worst in the NFL.

Here are the quarterbacks ranked by the most bad plays in the 2018 season:
255 Aaron Rodgers
230 Case Keenum
223 Eli Manning
221 Jared Goff
