QB success matters more to success than turnover ratio

[alswank87]

Let’s make this a more interesting thread and talk about pizza instead.

I used to work at Pizza Hut to get through college. We called ourselves pizza sluts. Even after 5 years of working there and bringing pizza home most nights, it still tastes good to me (except their hand tossed, that crust just sucks at Pizza Hut).

But, we can haz both?

So when a qb isn't successful; throwing picks and fumbling; the team struggles?

Damn, I learn something new every day.

I am guessing good GMs already know this and work hard to protect those QBs with good offensive linemen to get the QBs to perform best. I hope Poles reads this thread and learns something he clearly does not know. Thank goodness for this OP and earth shattering revelation.

All I did was quote the new head coach who used a fact.

Then why did you post the link to your old thread? That thread was irrelevant.

Psssst. None of them are relevant

Recently I have seen ads for Thin Crust Chicago Style Pizza. Isn't that name an oximoron like Jumbo Shrimp?

Imagine taking 5 years to get through a "college" you can pay for with a pizza boy job lmfaooo

 

[Menchifus]

The Bears problem over the decades is getting turnovers but not having a QB that can score with the ball after a turnover. Usually it's a 3-and-out or a field goal. Hopefully, we can have both now.

Imagine knocking people for working a job on the internet. That person must be very sad.

It's like getting an offensive rebound and missing the shot.

I’ve been say this too and we need more hustle, intensity, take aways and smart football

Just would like to point out that Ben Johnson is on the same wavelength as I've been preaching and said so in his press conference:

"It's clear that modern football in the NFL is quarterback driven. You can look at analytics, quarterback success is a higher predictor of winning and losing than turnover ratio and it's been that way for 20 years"

Indeed this goes exactly with what I said the Bears focusing so much on the turnover battle has been detrimental to the team winning.

The unhealthy obsession with forcing turnovers to win games

Your Chicago Bears are 4th in the NFL in turnover differential at a plus 10. This of course is supposed to equate to more wins. This is primarily why Matt Eberflus was hired was for the Bears to renew their Lovie Smith era ability take the football away, to the detriment of EVERYTHING else...

Exactly…

This year the Bears were in the top 10 in turnover differential but, only won 5 games.

Yes this one instance entirely proves that point lol

It also took away some of Caleb’s aggression and made him overly cautious. Trying to play Eberflus ball.

Also all the instances of still losing to GB for the last 30 years but having a better turnover differential than the Packers. While the Packers had QBs.

Sure thing. I think you’ve got it!

QBs and a good oline. Plus their running game has been fantastic under LaFleur.
