I was thinking about the comparison between the two guys who wore #11 for the Bills in recent history. Watching RJ in action tonight was amusing at best, but he did okay considering the way Oakland is playing.
Comparing his numbers and Drew's numbers through their careers, I found it interesting that overall RJ is the better QB than Drew. But not by much, they are fairly even.
These stats are based on 126 starting games for Drew since '95 compared to RJ's 29.
RJ's overall completion percentage is 61.4% to Drew's 57.1%
Drew's QB rating was never above 90.0 and he has had 5 seasons below 80.0. Johnson on the other hand has had 4 sub 80.0 seasons, and 5 years above, with three of those in the hundreds, averaging 111.43.
When it comes to scrambling, RJ can move the ball downfield. He has 862 yards for an average of 6.2 yards per att. Drew has only rushed for 646 yards in four times as many games as Rob, with a pthetic 2.0 yds per att.
The bottom line: After looking at the two players on paper, and from what we've witnessed this season, Drew really isn't much of a saviour when RJ comes out looking better than him in the long run.
