Winston out here throwing 5 tds in week 10 while Mariota has not thrown for more then 4td during week one and that was because they kept what they wanted to really run during the season(Oregon type O) a secret so they would surprise the buccs.... add on Winston out here beating the Eagles while Mariota cant beat the Jags
Mariota's team is losing because his team is horrible, not because he's done anything wrong. Did you see what happened in the two weeks he was out? Mettenburger managed 7 points against Atlanta and 6 points against Houston. Their offensive line is horrific and their recievers are all hurt, not to mention they fired their head coach 3 games ago. That's how good Tennessee is without Mariota dragging them along.
And Mariota doesn't just have week 1 stats. Here's the lines
Mariota:
8 games 65.3% completion 7.82 yards/pass 13 TDs 6 INTs
Winston
10 games 58.3% completion 7.70 yards/pass 15 TDs 9 INTs
Even take out the 4 TDs in week 1, and Mariota is still putting up numbers with a horrible lineup. And 1/3 of his INTs were that Miami game when he sprained his MCL and the coach wouldn't take him out even though he was a sitting duck against the pass rush....besides that game, he's at 12 TDs and 4 INTs in only 7 games.
Both players are doing great considering the lineups they have. Trying to claim that Winston looks significantly better than Mariota right now, or that Mariota hasn't continued to look great after week 1, is ridicuous.
