The stats and the eye test aren't with equal variables

Doubt Pyne performs as well as Buchner did at OSU considering the amount of pressure that was put on him. Mostly the same against Marshall. OL appears to have made some big strides with some more confidence and Patterson healthy. Who knows what Buchner would do with an improved line.

I'm Pyne's biggest fan but just pointing out how silly this discussion is with this limited sample.

Do you think Pyne triggers in Rees self-loathing? Rees/Crist = Pyne/Buchner - LanceManion - 9:01am 9/30/22 (34) [View All]
- Agreed. Rees seemingly is a carryover of all of Brian Kelly's QB faults. He's made the same mistakes [NT] - oldirish - 2:00pm 9/30/22
- Would Rees have adapted his play calling? - GaSubwayIrish - 10:27am 9/30/22
  - He showed no tendency in that direction through the game when Buchner was hurt. Seems like no. - LanceManion - 11:18am 9/30/22
    - I agree 100% with this. it was frustrating to watch. [NT] - GaSubwayIrish - 11:39am 9/30/22
- The idea that Pyne is clear cut better than Buchner is silly - NDNEIL - 10:11am 9/30/22
  - Pyne's QB rating for two starts is 165.6, placing him 10th over the entire season last year - MarkHarman - 7:39pm 9/30/22
  - I'm not touting Buchner as the be all, end all, but at this point we're comparing apples and oranges - D2 - 3:18pm 9/30/22
    - Agree, but haters gotta hate. Neither of them have particularly impressed me. - Frank L - 5:20pm 10/2/22
    - Lots of its and buts in that post [NT] - ColeyO - 10:59pm 9/30/22
    - Better??? Marshall lost to Troy and Bowling Green and our O turned around. Can you explain this? [NT] - oldirish - 9:29pm 9/30/22
    - Pyne looks clearly better than Buchner - WoodstockIrish - 7:58pm 9/30/22

    - I don't see why it's silly. Both are average or less compared to other QBs in college football - NDQuebec - 1:13pm 9/30/22
      - The stats and the eye test aren't with equal variables - NDNEIL - 4:45pm 9/30/22
      - Check out the facts about how a passing QB can make an OL better. Nice! [NT] - GaSubwayIrish - 1:48pm 9/30/22
  - Objectively better? Who knows? Better for the ND offense given the talent and OC? Yes. [NT] - LanceManion - 11:47am 9/30/22
    - Not enough data to make that conclusion [NT] - NDNEIL - 4:36pm 9/30/22
  - His passing % is far superior [NT] - whatsamataU - 11:27am 9/30/22
    - Josh Allen completed 56% of his passes in college.You saying Bills should draft Pyne and replace him [NT] - NDNEIL - 4:36pm 9/30/22

      - Please don’t tell me you’re comparing Buchner to Josh Allen - WoodstockIrish - 7:35am 10/1/22
        No, I'm pointing out the absurdity of pointing to a better completion% - NDNEIL - 8:34am 10/1/22
      - Allen was a far superior runner and a big arm. Vast difference. [NT] - oldirish - 9:34pm 9/30/22
        Dat was da point boi [NT] - NDNEIL - 8:35am 10/1/22
    - undeniable fact [NT] - GaSubwayIrish - 11:53am 9/30/22
  - It’s 0-2 vs 2-0. Wins and losses do matter. - GaSubwayIrish - 10:37am 9/30/22
    - Sample sizes and strength of opponent matter as well - NDNEIL - 4:14pm 9/30/22
      - Go check who Marshall lost to. Dat is a data point. [NT] - oldirish - 9:45pm 9/30/22
        App State scored 40 in a quarter against UNC. But that's not the point - NDNEIL - 12:41pm 10/1/22
        
        Yeah Boi [NT] - GaSubwayIrish - 8:17am 10/1/22
- No way they would have gone to Pyne over Buchner at least not this early in the season.... - NEPA Irish - 10:00am 9/30/22
  - Sadly he didn’t play like “da man” [NT] - WoodstockIrish - 2:22pm 9/30/22
