I know you guys don't watch a lot of Titans games, but ask any Titans fan, he is the 2nd best QB the franchise has ever had already. He has almost no offensive line, the running game is non-existent and his WR's are inconsistent at best (except Davis I love that man). He out played Brady and crushed the Pats this year and the Cowboys on MNF. He's played in games this year he had no business in playing because of injury which hurt his stats. Mariota, Mahomes, Wentz, Geoff, Winston, Prescott only one has a playoff win in their career  . Throw Mariota on the Cheifs and Mahomes on the Titans and I guarantee you Mahomes isn't throwing for 40 TDs a season. |
That's great that he's had some good games, but so do most QBs. Nick Foles, Eli Manning, and Joe Flacco all have Super Bowls and played out of their minds during their respective postseason runs. Mariota's underlying numbers, advanced stats, etc., have him established as a firmly mediocre to below-average QB.
Good QBs make the team around them better and can overcome poor coaching, supporting cast, etc., to some some degree. Outside of a few a lightning in a bottle performances, Mariota hasn't shown he can do that.
