Good evening, everyone! Hope you're all doing well. This is a new series I'm starting, looking at the quarterbacks of the ISFL and seeing how they stack up against one another. A few disclaimers before we get started.
First thing, offensive TPE. I think it is important to look at the situation around a quarterback and see if they're outperforming or underperforming relative to the talent around them.
Second, receiver TPE is me looking at just their pass catchers. This does include receiving backs, but does not include blocking TEs or any of the other running back archetypes, as their primary purpose is not to be pass catchers.
And third, most of this is just my opinion gathered over the course of a couple days. These could all shift rapidly just after one sim. So, with all of that in mind, let us begin!
Jackie Daytona, AUS
QB TPE: 673, Pocket Passer
Total Offensive TPE: 5284
Receiver TPE: 3472
51/88, 570 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT, 80.2 PR
Daytona has been having a solid rookie campaign so far. With the help of star running back Zoe Watts, Daytona and the Copperheads sit 1-1 on the season so far. Videl-San and Eddie Jeeta make up a solid 1-2 punch, and newly acquired receiver Doug Howlett means he has a solid receiving core to throw to. He showed out in his second game against Arizona, posting 26 completions, 359 yards and 2 touchdowns on the day in a 32-31 barn burner versus the formidable Outlaws. While he is the lowest TPE QB by a pretty wide margin, Daytona has minimized mistakes and made plays when asked.
Charlemagne Cortez, ARI
QB TPE: 836, Field General
Total Offensive TPE: 5926
Receiver TPE: 3852
37/57, 349 YDS, 2 TD, 2 INT, 78.8 PR
Cortez, as the other rookie quarterback entering the league this season, hasn’t been so lucky. While he has also had a decent season, he is one of three quarterbacks to have a TD-INT ratio of one or lower. He played well in the week 2 shootout versus Austin, but a bad interception in the third quarter right after they got the ball gave Austin prime field position. Thankfully, they weren’t able to convert that into anything more than a field goal, but in situations like that, you need to take the safe play and get a drive going to keep your lead.
Chika Fujiwara, BAL
QB TPE: 1313, Pocket Passer
Total Offensive TPE: 4390
Receiver TPE: 2943
46/81, 714 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT, 89.2 PR
Fujiwara has been having a pretty good year so far, but unfortunately the Baltimore defense is just hilariously bad. So far the team has given up a collective 83 points in 2 games. The 2nd worst defense, San Jose, has given up 60. Despite this, Fujiwara almost carried the Hawks to a 1-1 record in a game versus San Jose in week 2, but Rando Cadrissian suddenly became an elite running back and the Sabercat’s offense was just too much. It doesn’t help that her receiving cast got hurt by the loss of Doug Howlett, but perhaps she can still win a game or two on her own, despite the poor defense.
Nick Kapercolin, BER
QB TPE: 1238, Pocket Passer
Total Offensive TPE: 4626
Receiver TPE: 3306
48/73, 509 YDS, 3 TD, 0 INT, 99.6 PR
Kaepercolin has been the model of efficiency for Berlin. Top 5 in completion percentage, no interceptions, Top 5 passer rating, he has been a damn good quarterback for the Fire Salamanders. Even though he had a dud game versus Colorado where, to be fair, the entire offense completely stalled versus the Yeti, he did his part and kept mistakes down so it didn’t get any worse. Unfortunately, this also means they lost the game handily, but a great game at Baltimore really showed off what he is capable of when the ball gets rolling.
George O’Donnell, CHI
QB TPE: 1236, Gunslinger
Total Offensive TPE: 4734
Receiver TPE: 3332
33/47, 479 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT, 108.4 PR
O’Donnell is what every game manager type quarterback wants to be. Which is funny, considering he chose the gunslinger archetype. Regardless, O’Donnell has been very good at getting the ball to his playmakers and knowing when he should be taking a step back. He has also been good in clutch situations to give his team the W. In week 2, for instance, Baby Yoda was running all over Philadelphia in the early stages of the game. Later on, however, he started to have some troubles against the Philly defense, and Phoenix took the lead at the beginning of the 4th quarter. But, after a long drive by the Butchers, O’Donnell capped off the drive with a touchdown to Scabbia, giving Chicago the edge in a very close game.
Mattathias Caliban, COL
QB TPE: 943, Field Goal
Total Offensive TPE: 4494
Receiver TPE: 2962
66/106, 774 YDS, 2 TD, 4 INT, 75 PR
Welcome to Caliban’s turnover factory, where pastries are given to anyone who asks. He has by far the most volume when it comes to passing, but good god the interceptions. Most in the league, and he’s tied at the worst TD-INT ratio. Looking at the game versus Sarasota, for example, not only did he throw 3 picks in that game, he fumbled the ball twice for good measures. That’s 5 turnovers in one game! From Caliban alone! This cannot continue, you cannot win while turning the ball over at a rate of three times per game, it's completely unsustainable. Thankfully he pulled it together versus Berlin, but Caliban needs to start playing some safer football.
Luke Skywalker, HON
QB TPE: 917, Pocket Passer
Total Offensive TPE: 3743
Receiver TPE: 2536
38/61, 527 YDS, 4 TD, 3 INT, 91.4 PR
So, uh, Honolulu, your offense, you good over there? Not only do the Hahalua have the worst offense by TPE by a longshot, Skywalker’s receivers have the worst TPE in the league. He’s helped a little by Cobra Kai, who is a receiving back, but it is rough going for Skywalker. Not to mention he’s completely inactive, making him a complete dud in the future. (hey, you need a QB, call me.) Despite the lack of firepower on offense, Skywalker has been having a solid year, tying with the Jack brothers for 2nd most passing TDs in the league. He also has 3 INTs to go with it, only being surpassed by Caliban whose even more turnover happy.
Ben Slothlisberger, NOLA
QB TPE: 1201, Pocket Passer
Total Offensive TPE: 4718
Receiver TPE: 3338
47/80, 655 YDS, 2 TD, 0 INT, 93.5 PR
Slothlisberger is another quarterback who has managed to stay out of trouble and generate offensive production when his team needs it. He sits comfortably at 3rd in total yards and is one of three QBs without a single INT so far on the season. While his completion percentage could use some work, he only barely sits ahead of Daytona in that category, he’s been an effective passer and his best years are still ahead of him. He wasn’t quite good enough to carry the team week 2 versus Honolulu, but when your running backs combine for like 45 yards total, it’s gonna be a tough time for any QB. Look for Sloth to keep his efficiency up and hopefully get some more scoring done as well.
Sam Howitzer, NYS
QB TPE: 943, Pocket Passer
Total Offensive TPE: 4391
Receiver TPE: 3229
38/57, 504 YDS, 3 TD, 0 INT, 112 PR
It might be a hot take to say this, but I think Howitzer is a top 3 quarterback in the league right now. He doesn’t have the highest volume, not by a long shot, but he has been great with the ball in his hands and has so much more room to grow. Most touchdowns without a pick (tied with Kaepercolin), highest passer rating, 4th best completion percentage, he’s been instrumental in giving the Silverbacks a 2-0 record on the year so far. Especially with an unexceptional ground game, Howitzer has kept them competitive and is in the running for QBoTY, so far.
Suleiman Ramza, OCO
QB TPE: 1152, Field General
Total Offensive TPE: 4241
Receiver TPE: 3623
62/90, 649 YDS, 5 TD, 2 INT, 98.8 PR
Ramza has been slinging the pigskin all around the field so far this season. While he may have multiple INTs on the season, he’s been a key component in winning games for the Otters. He almost single handedly won the week 2 matchup versus the Silverbacks, but the offense stalled in the 4th quarter and they lost by a field goal. I think he can turn down the interceptions a little bit, but if Ramza keeps up this level of play throughout the whole season, I don’t think it’s a stretch to put him in MVP discussions.
Brock Phoenix, PHI
QB TPE: 860, Gunslinger
Total Offensive TPE: 4656
Receiver TPE: 2730
62/84, 625 YDS, 3 TD, 1 INT, 101.5 PR
Old man Phoenix still has it. Despite having the second worst receiving core by TPE (though he’s effectively tied with San Jose for that dubious title,) Phoenix has had a damn good year. With the third highest passer rating and only a single pick on the year, age hasn’t slowed him down at all. He kept Philly extremely competitive in their week 2 matchup versus the Butchers, throwing for 362 yards and 2 touchdowns. While it wasn’t enough to hold back the Butchers rushing attack, he played a statement game and said “I’m not done yet.”
Mike Boss Jr., SAR
QB TPE: 887, Field General
Total Offensive TPE: 6209
Receiver TPE: 3674
28/52, 283 YDS, 1 TD, 2 INT, 60 PR
Ouch. I think it’s safe to say that Boss Jr. came back down to earth after a stellar rookie campaign. In every meaningful category, he has the worst passing statistics and its not particularly close. Caliban may have more interceptions, but he also has a way higher passer rating and completion percentage. Of course, none of this really matters, since Sarasota is definitely a ‘run first’ style offense with Raphtalia Chan at the helm. Doesn’t excuse the fact that Boss Jr. is probably the worst QB in the league right now.
Monterey Jack, SJS
QB TPE: 1170, Gunslinger
Total Offensive TPE: 4957
Receiver TPE: 2731
40/63, 582 YDS, 4 TD, 2 INT, 101.4 PR
One half of the Jack brother duo, Monty has been doing quite well for himself during this season. Despite having two really damn good running backs in Jamar Lackson and Rando Cadrissian, who, as I stated before, suddenly became an elite running back in week 2, Monty has been able to carve out his niche into the team despite having an offense essentially tied in receiver TPE with Brock Phoenix. But, unlike Brock, Monty has a true number 1 in Tychondrius Hood who has both higher TPE and is younger than Flash Panda, Brock’s #1. With the 4th highest passer rating, though really he’s essentially tied with Brock in this regard again, and 2nd most touchdowns, tied with his brother and Skywalker, Jack has been performing well with somewhat limited opportunities.
Colby Jack, YKW
QB TPE: 1266, Field General
Total Offensive TPE: 5201
Receiver TPE: 4254
52/81, 559 YDS, 4 TD, 1 INT, 95.7 PR
It’s hard to see which brother in the Jack duo is currently better. Colby doesn’t have the same completion percentage, yardage or passer rating, but he ties Monty in touchdowns and has less interceptions. You might think it’s obviously Monty since he’s doing more with way, way less, and I will concede that to you. But, It’s not like Colby has been bad. On the contrary, he balled out against a dominant Sarasota team and led a 31 point charge to take the game back in the fourth quarter. Clean up the incompletions, and I think Colby could be in the talks for QBoTY as well.
RANKINGS
Before I get into this, these ranks are MY OPINION, and all of this happened before the Week 3 sim (just before, I guess.) Things can change very quickly in the ISFL, so as we go through the season, these rankings will change and morph as some people fall off, while others rise up to the challenge.
ASFC
#1: Suleiman Ramza, OCO
This is really a tough one for me. You could put Ramza or Howitzer in this spot and I think they’d both be valid. But, I’ll put in the man who has slightly better offensive production, even if the INTs are not as desirable.
#2: Sam Howtizer, NYS
Not much to say here, he’s an incredibly efficient QB and has been great for New York.
#3: Monterey Jack, SJS
While he may not be playing mistake-free football like Slothlisberger, he is generating a ton of yardage and points for San Jose.
#4: Ben Slothlisberger, NOLA
Can we call the Dalton Line the Sloth Line here? Outside of the yardage, he’s pretty average all around. Perfectly serviceable, but not MVP caliber.
#5: Luke Skywalker, HON
As much as Skywalker is a boom-or-bust type player, he’s had a pretty great season when you look at the cast around him. He’s had plenty of booms to go with a few busts.
#6: Jackie Daytona, AUS
While Daytona has had an unexceptional season so far, as a true rookie with the lowest TPE in the league at this position by a longshot, that’s really all you can ask of him. He has a lot of room to improve.
#7: Charlemagne Cortez, ARI
Cortez is a rookie as well, but one with much higher TPE. Sadly, that hasn’t translated to a whole lot of success, but Cortez is not a bad QB, far from it. He just needs to cut down on the INTs a bit.
NSFC
#1: Brock Phoenix, PHI
Despite the mediocre supporting cast around him, old man Brock still has it and has plenty of football left to play.
#2: Nick Kaepercolin, BER
You could probably put Nick up in the 1st spot as well, but frankly, Brock is doing more with less. That warrants a higher rating in my opinion.
#3: Colby Jack, YKW
While the efficiency metrics aren’t the best, 4 touchdowns with only one pick pushes him over the edge for me. If he can get the ball on target more often, he can be a deadly quarterback.
#4: Chika Fujiwara, BAL
This could very easily be O’Donnell in this spot, but looking at Baltimore’s offense and the god awful defense Chika is saddled with, I think she can move up a little bit.
#5: George O’Donnell, CHI
O’Donnell is not a bad quarterback, not at all. But, the middle of the pack NSFC quarterback crowd is, well, crowded, and he hasn’t done anything super exceptional to elevate himself beyond Fujiwara.
#6: Mattathias Caliban, COL
Honestly Caliban could lay claim to being one of the worst quarterbacks in the league as of the writing of this article (I know I’m probably gonna eat dirt after the recent sims). He’s just way too turnover happy and needs to clean that up ASAP before I rank him any higher.
#7: Mike Boss Jr., SAR
It’s really a toss-up between Caliban and Boss Jr. for this spot, but since Caliban has at least been spectacularly bad, Boss Jr. gets this dubious honor for being the boring kind of bad. If Caliban is Jameis Winston, Boss Jr. is Mike Glennon.
