Shaw, coming off the bench in the fourth quarter to replace Johnny Manziel, completed 8-of-9 attempts (88%) for 123 yards, with a 45-yard Hail Mary pass to tight end Emmanuel Ogbuehi as time expired in the 24-23 Browns loss. He earned a 155.8 rating, which blew the other two quarterbacks out of the water. Brian Hoyer completed 2-of-6 attempts for 16 yards and earned a 42.4 rating, and Johnny Manziel completed 7-of-16 attempts for 65 yards and a TD for a 76.3 rating.
Shaw, . . . beat Manziel in all of the drills at the NFL Scouting Combine. He ran the 40 in 4.66 to Manziel's 4.68, he measured 34.0 in the vertical leap to Manziel's 31.5 and recorded a 116.0 broad jump to Manziel's 113.0. |
That is pretty crazy.
27-5 record as a starter. Best touchdown to interception ratio in the NCAA in his final season (24-1).
Never put up huge yardage numbers though because they kept his attempts pretty low.
