Brennan Armstrong & Sean Tyler

Adman513 · Oct 16, 2023

Speaking for myself, I was pretty damn pumped about us getting a commitment from Tyler, and I was really hopeful Armstrong would've committed on his visit as I thought his skill set matched well with our OL issues.

I'm not missing either one of them.

Here is Armstrong's stats as QB1 for NC State (5 games):

58.8% completion percentage
971 yards
6.1 avg completion
5 TDs
6 Ints
Long of 64
112.5 rating

Compare that with Bowman, who we all know has only started 3 games:

56.8% completion percentage
1084 yards
6.2 av. completion
4 TDs
3 Ints
Long of 60
112.6 rating

Meanwhile, here's what Sean Tyler has done since he thought he would be better off at Minnesota:

46 carries for 199 yards
4.3 yards per rush
0 TDs
Long of 19
2 receptions for 13 yards
6.5 yards per catch
0 TDs
Long of 13

Here's Ollie's stats this season (comparing him instead of Collins since we were kind of up-in-the-air about who would emerge)...

87 carries for 534 yards
6.1 yards per rush
4 TDs
Long of 71
17 receptions for 180 yards
10.6 yards per catch
1 TD
Long of 50

I know there were several of us who thought we "missed out" on these (and other) guys, but it sure doesn't seem that way. Obviously, we still have a lot of question marks for the remainder of the season, but it appears these two wouldn't have helped us near what was originally thought.
