Even though I'm technically not an Outlaw anymore, I still have to shout out Jay Cue, who has done an unbelievable job of replacing Andrew Reese as the team's QB. Even in his rookie year, he's already performing at or above the level Reese was playing at. Cue is a star in the making and warrants discussion in the Quarterback of the Year conversation, but even if he doesn't win that, he easily deserves Offensive Rookie of the Year
Currently looking at his performance in the season, Cue had 288 completions for 3942 yards, the second most of any QB this year (and the leader in yards threw the ball 59 more times). Cue had a 56.8% passing percentage (ranked 4th) and a QB Rating of 91.5 (the highest in the league). He also had the longest pass this season with 65 yards. He also had 26 Touchdowns (ranked 3rd) with only 9 Interceptions. Another interesting statistic is that two of his receivers, Donut and Irving, were ranked top 4 in total receiving yards. Now, both are phenomenal talents, but they didn't thrive like that under Reese. Clearly Cue has a rapport with his squad, which is rare for a rookie. And the scary thing is he will only get better with time.
