How do you know he sucks when he’s surrounded by nothing? You’re telling me if you put him on the Eagles offense he couldn’t win?

DJ has a road playoff win with 300 passing yards and 80 rushing yards. That’s while throwing to Slayton and Hodgins. Draft Nabers at 1.07 and get Tee Higgins from Cincy, then it’s a different story

Robinson and Tyler Allegra (you know who I’m talking about) need to be getting at least 30 touches combined a game at bare minimum


Rams averaged 28 rushes per game last year with worse personnel so may be right. Bijan - 15, Allgeier - 10, Cordarrelle?? - 5 works for me.

Because Tyrod Taylor and Tommy Devito were surrounded by the same nothing and looked better than him.

It was a good game against a team that was smoke and mirrors that whole season. His best game that regular season was at that same overrated Vikings team. His pants got pulled down the next week.

Tyrod and Devito lost games in a better fashion to your liking? They were all terrible this season. Daniel Jones has the same amount of playoff wins as Kirk Cousins and beat Kirk in Minnesota in the postseason. Kirk has had Jettas for years. It just doesn’t make sense to write off a QB with absolutely zero talent around them, I hope you are consistent across the board and agree Bryce Young sucks too

He got beat by a better team, the team that lost in the SB by a few points. He’s not Mahomes, I’ll agree. You think he should have beat the Eagles that season in Philadelphia throwing to Slayton and Hodgins? Give me a break

They both won more with better completion %, better yards per attempts, less turnovers, more touchdowns, so yes.

I don't think he has had talent around him besides Saquon, who did a lot of heavy lifting that one good year, and I also don't think he's good. Same situation as Mac Jones.

but it doesn't look like there will be any QB in 2025 with the potential of Williams, Maye or Daniels.


Ewers and Sanders have potential. I think Rogers is due for a bounce back. Beck will really get a chance to prove himself this year. Who knows what Milroe will show.

Then there is always someone who takes a massive leap or comes out of nowhere.

I do think that this class looks better than it really is because a lot of these guys are 5 year starters - Daniels, Penix, and Nix specifically. Williams is a great athlete, meh passer, dookie personality. McCarthy is AJ McCarron 2.0. Rattler is a guy who probably needs to sit a year or two and then he can be a dude in the right situation. Beyond that, career backups mostly likely.

As long as you’re consistent. Me personally, I still think Bryce Young will be a good NFL QB but he’s throwing to Jonathon mingo and DJ Chark and the team has no semblance of a TE, a young QB’s best friend. I don’t like the way the game has evolved that if a QB doesn’t develop in year 1 they are a bust. No situation is created equal, Bryce young got thrown into the flames on the worst team in football meanwhile Jordan love got to sit behind Rodgers for years learning the game

And he hasn’t had any game remotely near that in his career outside of that one. Daboll is a weird cat but he is one of the best in all of football at maximizing a QB’s potential and the best he got out of Daniel Jones was 200 passing per game and 15 tds. He’s been in the NFL 5 years and there isn’t a single aspect of his game that you can show has made noticeable improvements from where he was when he came into the league. He’s a pretty athletic QB that can help you out for a game maybe two but he’s not one of the top 32 guys.

Kirk Cousin has made a ton of money. Being consistent is all they ask in the NFL at the position.


He's a lot better than he usually gets credit for. Not counting last year when he got hurt, in his time in Minny, his yearly average was 4,200/31/10 at 68% completion. He also went to 3 pro bowls in that time.

The Texans didn't have the big splash in free agency a lot of the talking heads were predicting.

They lost Greenard and replaced him with Autry that's about it.

So Josh Jacobs to the Packers does that mean Aaron Jones is out? Is Jones a free agent?
