This year:
Skelton 16/38, 186 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs
Kolb 109/183, 1169 yards, 8 TDs, 3 INTs

I think it's even more amazing that Kolb has played as well as he has given the pressures, hits & sacks allowed by the Oline! IMO pretty freaking amazing!

I thought so. And at the beginning of the year, I was saying that Skelton deserved the start, I wanted to just cut Kolb, etc. He's impressed me this year though

lol, yeah. The announcers were also talking about how the Fitz catch for a 1st was exactly why Skelton was named starter... right after the very next play, where Skelton overthrew his WR by like 6 feet...

his durability was my biggest concern with him. In preseason this year, I thought it was enough of a concern for him to lose the starting job. But he's been better. Much better

3 points? 13 points? Numbers? Do you even read what you're saying before you post it? I think last week, in that 3-point game, our line set a record for how many times they let STL mop the floor with him. I was surprised to see him still alive

This year:
Skelton 16/38, 186 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs
Kolb 109/183, 1169 yards, 8 TDs, 3 INTs

keep babbling with your opinion, but the FACT is Kolb is a significantly better QB. Maybe Skelton has moxie

Yo genius, you're STILL not getting it. They BOTH suck. I agree that kolb is better, but only incrementally so. Not so much that it would make a bit of difference IMO for the rest of this season.

no, "genius", Kolb does not SUCK. He's not great. But he does NOT suck. Skelton on the other hand, does actually suck. The difference is substantial

ETA:
Kolb leads the league in sacks. Is till top 10 in INTs, top 50% in TDs, ranked #16 in Passer Rating, #19 in COMP%. If the guy had more time, every one of those stats will improve

If we were 6-0 would you still be saying that? ;)

Agree 100%. Those who think they're capable of analyzing either QB accurately behind this line are either lying, ignorant, or desperate for attention.
