All of a sudden, that Lock vs. Mahommes matchup

[megalodon30]

next Sunday looks awfully intriguing. If Lock continues to progress, that could be a very fun rivalry over the next few seasons.

Fair take.

Raiders defense is still a joke and Carr isn't that good.

Lock is a ? but he D is there.

Chargers are in the worst of both worlds.

I don't know what happened to Derek Carr. Looked like he could have developed into something decent, but just has yet to get over the hump.

dude, come on, 1 game

He's started 2 games and looked decent in each. Today was the first time the Broncos have scored more than 24 points in a game in about a year. Lock is looking better than I thought he would.

I mean, Denver is actually not a completely sauceless team now. Don't know if Lock is any good, but they're at least not a joke-team anymore.

i agree with you there , 600%. But the premise that him and mahomes are on the same level, is a little trigger happy

First rookie in the history of the league to have 300 yards passing and 3 passing TDs in his first road game.

Is that what I said? That theyre on the same level? Or did I say the matchup was intriguing?

Mostly because their QB play was arguably sub-replacement value to this point. 7-9 wouldn't be shocking from them. Trendy pick for next year.

Chiefs will probably handle them just fine. I'd rather not sleep on them. Always annoying to lose to those dudes.

im sorry, what were you implying when you said the matchup could fun , for years to come?

that mahomes would ball out, and denver would just be a rock solid all around team?

he suprised me today, i played the fn texans d! maybe elway finally found his qb.

We'll see. Been thinking the Texans, like the Colts earlier in the year, are probably overrated.

Titans might steal the Texans' playoff spot altogether if they don't snap the fuck out of it with their defense.

texans d is awful, Awful

Most yards passing by a Bronco rookie since Ol' Horeface himself.


Kid could save his job and his legacy.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Yeah, they're bigly bad against the pass.

If you look at the statlines for the best 4 QB's the Texans D has faced this year(Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Drew Brees, & Tom Brady), Lock played better than arguably all of them except Jackson.

Lock - 22/27 309Yards 3TD's 1 Int

Jackson - 17/24 222 Yards 4TD's 0 Int 86 Yards Rushing
Brees - 32/43 370 Yards 2TD's 1 INT
Mahomes - 19/35 273 Yards 3 TD's 1 INT
Brady - 24/47 326 Yards 3 TD's 1 INT

So yes the Texans D is pretty bad but for a rookie making his first road start to put up those kinds of numbers says something. He is at the very least the most talented QB the Broncos have had since Manning retired.

That's fair. I am basing my comments on their pass D on the totality of the season though.
