Really? I could have sworn that there was somebody else ahead of him who had like 180 or something ridiculous like that. Maybe I'm off, I just thought I remembered seeing that somewhere.

After doing a little bit of research, looks like Tom Brady started his career with 162 consecutive passes without an interception. Wonder where Schefter got that information?

EDIT: Ahhhh, just re-read the tweet. The key word in there is ROOKIE. Very sneaky. I mean, either way it's impressive, just confused me.

Being wrong is being wrong. The difference is someone who doesn't claim to know everything and constantly insist over and over again that their picks are absolutely perfect and that everyone else is foolish for not agreeing with them is going to look a lot worse than someone who simply makes them and watches the season unfold.

So yes, you will look bad.


Who cares about predictions? Everyone makes dumb ones. The only statement here in this entire quote I can state with certainty is that Ernie isn't still brilliant, if he ever was at all.


I'm going to look like Nostradamus to you by seasons end.

But right now your coming across and acting like Donald Trump.

Wasn't calling you a liar either. I should have been more specific. What I was really trying to say is, your always right and everyone's else is always wrong or its their fault.

Both, because I was right on both.

Wentz is the chosen one. I have seen the light. Your fandom is clouding your judgement. :wink:

Wentz, in 6 games with a good team around him
65.0% completions(102/157) , 1186 yards, 7 TD, 1 INT, 16 20+, 3 40+, 12 sacks

Kessler in 3 1/4 games with an all rookie supporting cast
65.6% completions (80/122), 865 yards, 4 TD, 1 INT, 9 20+, 3 40+, 10 sacks

if you extrapolate Kessler to the full 6 games
148/225, 1597 yards, 7 TD, 2 INT, 17 20+, 6 40+, 18 sacks

Wentz BEST game:
23/31, 301, 2 TD, 0 INT, 0 Sacks, 1 fumble (not lost)
Kessler BEST game:
26/41, 336, 2 TD, 0 INT, 6 Sacks

So, under far more duress, Kessler put up stats that are every bit as good if not better than Wentz

Wentz WORST game:
11/22, 179, 0 TD, 0 INT, 5 Sacks
Kessler WORST game (can't count injury game, not comparative)
28/40, 223, 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 Sack

Even on his worst day, Kessler had a better rated day than Wentz...with more yards and a TD.


Saw this on the Browns forum. Impressive that a 3rd rd pick QB can match America's current fave QB's individual stats. Of course Wentz is winning ball games while Kessler isn't but that's not really on either QB as much as the defense. In Wentz first 3 wins, the Eagles gave up a TOTAL of 27 points. The Browns have given up 30 or more in 3 of the 4 games Kessler started, with the 4th one 28.

Those are interesting numbers. Of course when it comes to the Browns, any good news at all gets buried under "Browns". Hope the kid doesn't get killed up there while the Browns "try" to build a better roster.
