The real travesty there are the Chargers, not since 2021.  With Herbert that should be easy.  Show how badly they failed with coaching staff, scheme and some failed WR draft picks.

Haven't I heard that an elite QB raises those around him?  Haven't I heard that reasoned observations (such as yours) are just "excuse-making"? ;)

You have.  I don't ascribe to theory that a sport with 22 starters plus couple other players boils down to one player.

That tweet was deliberately misleading. Almost a third of the league had a QB with 29 plus TD's and over 3900 yards passing.

Ed,

How exactly do you know this stat is "deliberately" misleading?  Do you know the employee on 33rd team that made the stat?  Can you explain why that employee was deliberately trying to mislead?   What exactly was the purpose of deception?
How is your choice better than theirs?

I don't know the motivation but when ten QB's have 29 or more TD's and the cut off is 30, it's a red flag to a narrative they are pushing. That narrative is that the league is either void of good QB talent or as you are pushing that they lack a supporting cast of talent around them. It sure got you to bite.

Objectively your number choice is no better supported. How are they pushing a narrative but you are not?  I am not seeing a fair justification for your strong deragotory accusation.

I'm not pushing a narrative Rich, I'm saying the entire purpose of their post was BS. If you don't like what I have to say about it, that's fine but don't attack my opinion. I have every right to have it without people like you jumping down my throat. Strong derogatory accusation indeed. I don't care that you posted it. I'm sure you're running out of things to talk about.
