For having the most important tangible a QB can have: being at his greatest when the pressure is on.
Also because he's 24-10 through 2 years as a starting QB, cool under pressure, sneaky good athletically and plays for one of the most QB friendly coaches in the NFL....and now he has Waddle too
The only QB you can take over Allen is Mahomes, if he's healthy. Stafford is good but old. He doesn't have Allen's mobility, he just has one of the best coaches in the NFL.
I'll be honest, I haven't watched enough either - just following his highlights and a few big games. Not sure if he's got it or not, but he's putting up stats and wins. His skillset seems a little opposite of Caleb W. who has the million dollar arm but questionable above the neck. I'm no QB expert, that's for sure.
Yeah I can understand that. But after what I seen from Caleb Williams last year I'd definitely take him over Nix without hesitation. He has "it" I think. He's got a realize he can't make EVERY play at this level. But I think that can be learned. What he has can't be coached physically.
Lamar is fast, but he's pretty inconsistent throwing the ball. I've had him in fantasy football a lot over the years because I always wait on drafting QBs. He gets banged up pretty easily and his production really drops offs when he's not healthy.
I watch a lot of Denver games. Nix is a system QB. Pretty good thrower, pretty good runner. Pretty good QB I guess, but I'm not sure how good he is playing out of Sean Payton's system. Same with Brock Purdy in Shanahan's system.
That’s not his problem. Lamar will never win a Super Bowl. It’s unlikely Josh will either. The young guys are on the scene now. The torch is being passed.
WRs are a dependent position. A great QB elevates decent WRs, not the other way around.
Nix was carried on the back of his defense. Nearly all those wins were one score games last year, and that luck often reverses the next season. And they were one score games with 4th Q comebacks because Nix was sucking at Tebow levels for most of the game. His ankle has chronic problems. He hurt it on a no contact play and he’s still not recovered 6 months later. If you’re a Bronco hater, you hope Bo does enough this year to get a massive contract.
Completely agree on Caleb over Nix. Caleb has the gift and if he can improve on some things he will be top 3-5 in short order. As an opponent he scares me
You'd be shocked how similar Nix's "it" factor is to CW.
he's a gamer
yes. Nix has the intangibles you need to make a deep run, including leadership.
Burrow would be higher if he had team surround him like Allen and Mahomes does.
IF you’re building a team today and could have any QB you want, who would you take? I’m thinking it would be between Burrow and Allen for me. Mahommes I’m concerned about his injuries. IF you want to go young, Drake Maye looks like he’s going to be really good.
It’s always somebody else’s fault with Lamar. I’m no Harbaugh fan boy, but I think Lamar just forced them to can one of the best head coaches in the NFL. FWIW (nothing) my daughter just made the Ravens cheer/dance squad.
