99.9% of QBs would have sucked here this season. Next season is TBD, but there's not a lot of hope.

Hey, I can hope for a QB at #33, considering the right one is there.  Nix is becoming my favorite there now.  Penix Junior will be gone, especially if he has a monster game tonight.

I'm wanting to see more of the QBs.  I have my thoughts on both. McCarthy to me is a system guy who needs a ton of support. In other words, he would SUCK here.

I'm honestly higher on McCarthy as an NFL prospect than I am Penix. With that said, I'm not super high on either. I think they both project has 2nd to 3rd round types.

I think they go WR or Oline at 33 and will give Young another chance. The only way that doesn't happen is if the Teppers' step back and whoever the new regime is are convinced Young is a bust and not fixable.

I agree that Penix most likely will be taken in the first round. He has a lot of good tape from this season and last.

I agree, I just don't have to like it.  Now if McCarthy is the best one left, I'm not saying take a QB for the sake of taking one and we should pass.  If Penix Junior or Nix is there at #33, we'd be dumb not to take a swing.  It's a talented/deep draft and if Williams and Maye weren't in it, both of them would be top 10 picks.

I'm torn on Nix and Penix. Both are on the older side being 6th year seniors, played in the PAC12(not much defense), and Penix has the injury issue filled past. That said, I think there are teams that will be willing to take a chance on them in the first round.

That's a ++++ for me now.  I bought into the young phenom hype at QB in the past and got burned multiple times.  I'm over it.  There is nothing really all that special about Brock Purdy other one thing, wisdom through reps in games.  There is one thing that prepares a college QB for the NFL more than any other and that is game experience.  No amount of reps in training camp can duplicate/simulate that for a rookie QB.

Got $200 on the line for Washington feeling confident about it. The media has been hyping Michigan as the favorites all week.

 

Washington knows this and they know they have the best QB on the field.

 

Washington 34 Michigan 28

The 5 pts could be very helpful even if they lose it

    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
    • The changes to onside kicks were ridiculous and ruined a significant part of the game     It was already a high risk low reward play.  Why change it?
