another guy who was good was was Tune in Arizona and undrafted Ahlers in Seattle
14 QBs picked in the 23 draft
League needs more QBs..its a great rule
Colt McCoy cut, Murray on PUP, Tune has a chance to possibly start in Arizona .
considering the pass attempts the 41 INTs isn't that bad.


  • Bryce Young (Alabama): 625/949, 65.8 %, 8,356 yds., 8.8 ave., 80 TDs, 12 ints., 162 rushing yds., 1.2, ave., 7 rushing TDs, 165.0 rating.
  • C.J. Stroud (Ohio St.): 575/830, 69.3 %, 8,123 yds., 9.8 ave. 85 TDs, 12 ints, 136 hoards rushing, 1.7 ave. 1 rushing TD, 182.4 rating.
  • Anthony Richardson (Florida): 215/393, 54.7%, 3,105 yds., 7.9 ave, 24 TDs, 15 ints, 1,116 yds. rushing, 6.9 ave., 12 rushing TDs, 133.6 rating.
  • Will Levis (Kentucky): 497/738, 64.9 %, 5,876 yds., 8.0 ave. 46 TDs, 25 ints, 742 rushing yards, 2.4 ave., 17 rushing TDs, 145.6 rating.
  • Clayton Tune (Houston): 956/1,497, 63.9 %, 11,994 yds., 8.0 ave., 104 TDs, 41 ints., 1,248 yds. rushing, 3.0 ave., 15 rushing TDs., 148.6 rating.

All I was thinking was that the books always seem to adjust to whatever factor...
Amazing how good they are sometimes.

Good luck this season

Vegas is sharp... ?

I use points allowed points scored system and it usually is within FG/TD. AFA preseason pass I always pass on watching any games..

I use Week One to see whose who and what's what...

Mind blowing that so many teams actually play their starting QB and other key starters in preseason
I’m mind blown that you are mind blown

Last season I think teams that did not play their QB at all in pre season struggled ATS the first regular season game, no I do not have a "link"

QBs to get used to new receivers and backx, and vice versa, timing, adjust to speed of each, it matters.

They get way more of that in full speed practices leading up to preseason games than the games themselves even if they can’t get hit

Good point and practice is not a walk through so getting acclimated at practice would be real time

So 3-8 last year is not relevant? I beg to differ.

I also heard ex players say that QBs that did not play pre season were behind others that did and should not skip the entire pre season.

Hmmm Watson played two preseason games, Brittle Burrow played none, maybe a nice bet on Cleveland + 2 1/2 opening game makes some sense.

If the player doesn’t practice, that’s different.

My point is id rather the QB play in practice but not suit up for the games in preseason Obviously the quarterback will be rusty if he does neither.

“Brittle Burrow” hasn’t missed a game since his rookie season, but sure call him injury-proned

Throw a few bucks on “Groper Cleveland” if you want

And they get way more meaningful action doing so. That’s where players get substantial reps

Not 2-3 series in preseason games

Labeling him as injury-prone may be one of your most outlandish takes to date

I don’t see how a guy is injury-prone after missing only 5 games of his rookie year

By the way 3-8 is straight up, not against the spread. What was the average line in those game? You need context

And even then, 11 games is an extremely small sample size statistically. You should know this
