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

    • In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
    • The nice thing about the timing of Bryce's contract at least is that it's going to match up with the 2027 Draft Class. No excuses, he either becomes Rams 2nd half Bryce year long, or we draft his replacement.  Nothing wrong with carrying Bryce on his 5th year expiring and a 1st round rookie waiting in the wings. Let the rookie sit until the trade deadline, deal Bryce to a needy team at the time, profit. 
    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.
