I don't think Bennett is an NFL starter but I wouldn't bet against him carving out a career as a backup.

It's tough say whether he's just a natural or if the system was just a good fit for him to manage. Dunno much about his background but isn't he also 25?

Reminder Anthony Richardson went for 290 yards, 1 TD and 0 turnovers vs UGA. 
 

Levis went for 232, 1 TD and 1 INT. 
 

Hooker went for 212 yards, 0 TD and 1 INT. 
 

Duggan went for like 120 yards, 1 TD and 2 INT. 
 

Stroud cut Georgia up. 380+ yards, 4 TDS and 0 INT.

Looks like Bennett goes into the history books as one of the best college QBs in the modern era at least. I still wouldn't have him as an NFL starter though.

Yeah, Bennett is 25 years old.  Which is older than I think 4 of the NFL playoff QBs this year.   Something about his age playing amongst college kids taints it me a little bit and takes some of the shine off it….at least for me.  
 

college football just in a weird space all around IMO so who cares.  Might as well deem it pro ball/ minor leagues.

    • Bruce Arians said when evaluating a college prospect they have to win on 3rd down and in the 2 min drill to be successful in the nfl.
    • We took Luke when we had Jon Beason, and a hurt Jonathon Brooks when we had Chuba. Just noting.  I don't think teams are going to pass up on an impact player regardlessly if whether they need something else. There's a good argument that drafting an inferior player, and especially an obviously inferior player, based upon need is a pathway to failure.  I'm glad we took Tetairoa McMillan even though there were arguably bigger needs.
    • As much as I'd love Cam or Mahomes I'd also settle for a QB that is at least better than average at something other than 4th quarter comebacks/game winning drives. He's literally bottom third in the league in most categories (yards, completion percentage, int percentage/turnovers, YPA, IAYPA, QBR and QB rating) and right around average in a couple others, notably TD % where he is 15th and YAC/PA where he is 9th. If Bryce can improve I'll be happy with him. But all this stuff about us asking for perfection / insane ability is a bit ridiculous. Most of us "haters" just see a QB that is basically below average over his career to date and has shown relatively little consistency in his third year.  NFL offenses don't need 400 yards every week at all, but they do require a QB that can move the ball, and Bryce struggles often with that (hence why our overall offensive rank is so bad despite an overall good rushing rank).
