Young QBs in the league.

Almost one year since I created this thread...

Drake Maye
Caleb Williams
Bo Nix



Damn shame what has happened to J.J. McCarthy....we'll see.

Damn shame Jaxon Dart is losing so much experience opportunity.

Cam Ward... welcome to the NFL... welcome to the Tennessee Titans, sorry you showed up just as King Henry left! 😬

You can see the potential..but that's all it is right now. Just got to hope he improves like these other young 2nd year QBs have.

But back to Drake Maye, I just see him in certain situations and I think "how will he find a way to get out of this!", and then bam.. just alittle shifting around the pocket, 20 yard pass perfectly placed for the 1st down. He seems ready for the playoffs, and that's scary. Same with his NFC counter part, Caleb Williams. Nice to see the Bears good again.. always loved their uniforms.

Maye is top 5 , if not top 3 already .

Lamar , Mahomes , Burrow , Josh Allen could all mist the playoffs this year .

People said this about Jayden Daniels after last season.

People said this about CJ Stroud after 2023.

People said this about Justin Herbert after 2021.

Pump the breaks!

He's playing like it right now. So Pats gotta go all out with him this season before teams adjust to him next season.

Coach Vrabel needs to not do anything to make Maye's job any harder. No stupid decisions in the playoffs like how Campbell screwed the Lions against us.

They need to get him some young receiving talent. Right now he's getting it done with a slow and old diggs and a group of nobodies.

Aiyuk rejected a trade to the Patriots last year I believe... I'm sure he didn't expect them to do this well. That might be the team he goes to next year, although many believe he's gonna pick the Commanders for sure because of Daniels.

I like Jayden Daniels.. but have believed in Vrabel as a Head Coach since he was with the Titans. I feel he will continue to do great things for the Pats, especially with Maye at QB. And Aiyuk could be part of another dynasty.

Bad move by Aiyuk, but who knew? As for Washington- they have Terry, Deebo's deal is up, then potentially Aiyuk? Is Aiyuk going to leave money on the table to play with his buddy? I don't see it.

I can see the Giants being in on him. As for the Patriots as a team- wow. Vrabel could edge Shanahan for coach of the year. Both are deserving.

Ben Johnson, Caleb Williams, and the Bears are going to be a problem eventually. They haven't looked this good since the last days of Lovie Smith.

I am enjoying seeing new and surprising teams in the mix as well as young QBs on the rise but I'll wait until year 3 before crowning anyone.

Dont care. My point stands.
Caleb Williams looks better each week.

His accuracy is still really hit or miss. Sometimes you can see why people were making Mahomes comparisons when he was coming out and then a few plays later he'll sail a ball 5 feet over his receiver's head.

We've seen it in the past with QBs no? How do they finish it. How do they help put a team away. The Bears could have played for a FG there at the end.. or Caleb could have shriveled and not want to be the reason they lost..and also played for the FG. But he made a hell of a play and put the Eagles out of reach.
