GM4 - 115.7 (500 yards/4 TDs)

Look at this shit from just last year. Only 4 games out of 12 that were over 95 QBR. I would have NEVER signed him to that deal and would have traded him for 3 first rounders and more. I'm constantly boggled by how people continue to think this dude is a good QB. It's the same fucking arguments I had with Vick fans. Sure, he's fun to watch but he's not consistent enough.

A lot of Ravens fans have the same sentiment, that he's overpaid and not worth the contract he got. And it's a shame, since it looks like Zay Flowers is going to be a good WR. But yeah, they had no vertical passing game whatsoever, even with Flowers and OBJ (who looks like he has something left in the tank).

Although, given this week, it looks like the AFC North is going to be a toss up, and all of their QBs looked meh.

On a related side note: CJ Stroud looks good, I thought he played well for a rookie, against a top D. It is a shame he has no weapons, I think their best skill position player is Robert Woods. But he did a better job than Lamar in moving the ball, and had better stats. Also, looking at Bryce Young's #s, Stroud may be the better player (at least this week). Don't know how Anthony Richardson did (I know he got hurt).
