Forked from: 2007 buffalo bills season break down pertaining to QB play
If you haven't yet, read all the conflicting arguements in the thread.
So basically, through all this arguing, we have come to the point where neither QB has distinguished themselves as the better option.
And therefore, since Trent was drafted in 2007 and JP in 2004, we can conclude that JP's upside is more limited that Trent's is. So using the derivative of performance, if they're arguably the same now, but Trent's rate of improvement should be larger than JPs, Trent is the better option.
Or you could even think of two concave down (leveling off) graphs with one starting a while after the other. The 1st one is leveling/leveled off while the 2nd is still increasing at a higher rate! We don't even know when the 2nd one will level off, but it's quite clear that the 1st graph IS leveling/leveled off.
There's some Calculus concepts for you haha!
