So despite one bad game he still ranks in the top 5 nationally, but is not even in the conversation. I compared him to the #1 QB in each of those categories to give context, it wasn't a Shedeur vs Ward specific comparison I was trying to make.

Shedeur Sanders - 2023-25 Tracking History Thread

Then don't make a Ward specific comparison I guess?
He's also not leading a lights out offense. His passing yards are gaudy but we are not a top 25 offense. To be in the heisman contention you need to be a QB of a near perfect winning team or be doing something really special (Travis) nearly every week.
He's doing good QB things, but without more wins, that's not enough. Getting destroyed on national television by a middling B10 team killed his candidacy. Failing to bring us back against KSU killed his chances at reviving it. If he strings 4 special games together, maybe?
Sheduer will pull an Elway/Manning if Cleveland drafts him. They are in salary cap hell and are years away from being able to invest in talent.
There's 0% chance CP leaves us for Cleveland. Any coach who takes that job is losing for 2 years before they have a chance.

1. Travis is a better story for Heisman. There are QBs to talk about every year, how often do you get a unicorn.
2. Colorado stunk the last 2/3 of last year, Shedeur didn't put him in the spotlight with wins.
3. As easy as he makes their job a lot of media people don't like Prime because he doesn't act like they think he should and he doesn't kiss the media in the backside. Their dislike for prime gets transferred to his son(s).
He's not the best player on his own team.
CP is not leaving for the NFL
Agreed
That’s true but that doesn’t preclude another deserving player to be in the conversation. Also, the best player has now missed the better part of two straight games and needs to be pretty dominant in the remaining 5 games to get the nod, IMO
Stay away from shedeur jets!
*a part
We don't want both Travis and Shedeur in the Heisman conversation. They won't finish 1-2 => they'll cannabalize the votes that would have gone to just one of them.
FIFY
I’ve never understood this argument. It’s not one vote per voter, it’s ranked choice voting and the winner is declared from a point system. Two candidates from the same team shouldn’t lead to other candidates jumping the most deserving one.
