Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the Tatecast. My name is Davis Maddo. You guys can find me on Twitter at Davis Maddo. In this episode of the show. I'm joined by my buddy,

Justice Mosquera. You can read his work on the Acme Packing Company, or you can listen to him on the SB Nation NFL podcast twice a week. I had Justice on the show. He's a return guest to the show,

but I had him on the show to discuss, you know, number one, why is scoring down in the NFL? We got to find

an answer for this and then kind of just go through some of the interesting quarterback situations

throughout the NFL, including the rookie quarterbacks. And we also did a bonus Patreon episode

of the show that you guys can find on patreon.com slash take cast and you'll get other bonus episodes there as well

and if you want to support the show you can just leave a rating or reveal on iTunes or wherever

you listen to a podcast and let's go ahead and get into the episode all right everyone

welcoming in a return guest to the show justice muscudessa i'm pretty sure i was close uh i think i did it

bang on the first time you came on back it would have been 2019 year baker and lamar and all those

guys got drafted yeah you added an s that was oh mosta mosqueda there we go see i should know

because i grew up in the mid Midwest with like loads of Hispanic,

but like I went to a school that was probably like, I should know. I should know. And I don't. That's embarrassing. That's, it's really embarrassing. So I'm a little embarrassed there. First out of the bat. So I wanted to have you on the show to, I mean, talk about the NFL because it's a very weird season. And then I want to talk a little bit about the rookie quarterbacks. But the weirdest thing. And I'm hoping you have more of like a football guy explanation for this because it's very, it's hard for me to find the answer to these questions. Why is is scoring down so far? It's down like eight points a

game. This last week, the only total over 50, I think was the Cowboys Raiders game was the only game

with a total over 50. And a couple of things I've heard is the reemphasis of holding penalties.

So last year was likephasis of holding penalties.

So last year was like the fewest holding penalties that has ever been called.

And they're basically calling them at an average rate again.

But I don't know if that would explain like a touchdown per game.

I think the biggest thing is how defenses are playing these quarterbacks now.

Honestly.

Ban it.
