Spencer Rattler, the quarterback for the Saints, is currently facing a crucial moment in his career. As he approaches his eleventh start, he has yet to secure a victory. He remains focused on the future, stating that he is not dwelling on his past losses.
Historical Context for Winless Quarterbacks
The prospect of ending a winless streak after ten starts is significant. Since the 1950 season, only a select few quarterbacks have endured a similar journey. Here are the key statistics:
- Four quarterbacks have started their careers with an 0-11 record.
- Only two quarterbacks went 0-12.
- DeShone Kizer holds the record for the worst start at 0-15 with the 2017 Cleveland Browns.
Quarterbacks with Notable Winless Starts
The following quarterbacks have started their careers without a win:
| Quarterback | Record |
|---|---|
| Stan Gelbaugh | 0-11 |
| Troy Aikman | 0-11 |
| Jack Trudeau | 0-12 |

The Upcoming Challenge
In today’s game, Rattler and the Saints will face the New York Giants. They will be up against rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who recently achieved his first win against the Chargers. This match will be critical for Rattler to avoid joining the ranks of winless quarterbacks.
The pressure is on as he aims to change the narrative surrounding his early career. A victory today could not only provide much-needed relief for Rattler but also mark a significant turning point in his journey.]}
