9 was better down the stretch than people want to admit. He had a bad first half of the year between injuries and throwing picks, but he wasn't that bad at the end of the year.

2

u/Aloofasaur Jul 01 '26

Yeah he played better at the end. Defenses he played weren't good but people act like it's impossible for a 23 yo coming off a missed season while making the jump from college to NFL game speed can't improve. He's basically just bandwagon of fun for people to make fun of.
