If you wish to continue believing this, I highly recommend you don't review Taylor's passing stats through the first 5 games of his sophomore season.Why do i need to go back that far, he was horrible for his whole career,,right?I agree with the Dude, Taylor's sophomore season was what 56% 13 TD's and 8 INT's with roughly 2000 yards and a 126.5 rating? Tommy is already at 10 TD's only 3 picks, 1052 yards and a QB rating of 154.2..... Only through five games. One may argue Taylor was a better runner, but his sophomore season he had 4.6 yards a carry, Tommy is averaging 8.4 yac. Not dissing Taylor but stats are stats
Taylor and Tommy don't play in a vacuum however, and the offensive line we currently have is far and away better than anything Martinez played with.
Do you remember that those rushing stats include sacks, which you can't really blame on the quarterback.
Avoiding sacks are credit to the QB though and Tommy is much better at that. Not saying that Tommy turns potential sacks into home runs like Taylor(BIG championship game) but he avoids them as good as anyone, whether it is throwing the ball away or scrambling. My point was not to diss Taylor as I enjoyed watching him as much as anyone, I am just saying that as a game manager and doing what needs to be done, Tommy has got the edge. Just my opinion
I think it's funny, that I say we shouldn't argue over the quarterbacks because it only divides and it turns into an argument about the quarterbacks. You value one thing I value another it doesn't really matter we want Nebraska to win I don't get why you keep arguing.
I was trying to create a divide, I was using stats to compare the two through their sophomore years and everything I said was disputed. I was just bringing up facts/stats to support what myself and others were saying. GBR
