Surprised I have not seen anyone mention this. Netflix film produced by Peyton Manning. "Quarterback follows three QBs — the Kansas City Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes, the Minnesota Vikings' Kirk Cousins, and the Atlanta Falcons' Marcus Mariota — as they progress through the 2022 NFL season."

Interesting close up look.  I watched it over the weekend.  I was impressed by the amount and type of extra training Mahomes does. Kind of insane.  His success is no accident.

Hope our young QBs...Bryce and Matt watch that.

Felt bad for Mariota.  Seems like a nice guy.

I watched most of the first episode, it's interesting but has kinda dragged a bit for me. I may continue to watch but skip through the Cousins/Mariota parts as they bore me. 

I watched it while multi-tasking...helps. (How i watch most things...lol)

I tried skimming around but lost interest pretty quickly. Manning stuff so far has come across pretty light and fluffy, like that draft QB show that was basically a commercial for Manning passing academy. I might skim around again to see if theres any Adam Thielen candid moments

I binge watched the entire thing.  You are right about Mariota.  There isn't a single interesting thing that you are missinig if you skip over his parts.  Cousins is a boring person but there were some interesting things that came up during his parts.

Just strange that they picked two super middle of the road vets, I guess they can only get QB's that want to deal with being filmed all season long. No one ever wants to do Hard Knocks

I’m kind of surprised by some of these takes. I binged watched it in two days and thought it was great. The Mariotta part wasn’t the greatest, but I actually loved watching the Mahomes and Cousins parts. I like seeing the difference in one QB who basically has unbelievable God given talent versus a guy who has many flaws. Both of which work their butt off and it shows in their play. Mahomes is everything you want in a QB from athletic gifts to work ethic. Cousins wasn’t given the gifts of Mahomes or most QBs in the league, but the dude is unbelievably committed to his craft. 
 

i also loved Cousins explaining the 4th down play against the Giants. It’s easy for us fans to get mad because he threw the ball behind the line of scrimmage, but when he goes through the play and talks about how fast you have to make a decision, it makes sense. 
 

I love football in general and not just the Panthers so I thought it was a really really good watch.

My guess is that they wanted some variety....which they accomplished.

Im a few episodes into it and I love it.. I love sports docs in general. 

I was impressed with Kirk, he has a really cool story and IMO is one of the most under appreciated players in the league. 

Mariota... yeah he just has a boring personality. 

I like that they picked a top tier, mid tier and bubble player to follow.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
