I'm Sold on Drew Allar

After watching BY9 all of last year and a few games this year, I’m amazed by any other QB where any other QB is so accurate, possesses such a strong arm, is so mobile and athletic, etc. I find myself falling in love with any QB just because it’s not Bryce. 

I have that as well and I'm pretty sure there is some psychological diagnosis that could be labeled on us for that just don't know what they call it....I just call it "Bryce Syndrome". It's almost like when you have gone without a woman in a while on a severe dry spell and the slutty ugly chick at the bar with chipped teeth who smells like wet dog that nobody wants to touch ends up looking like a perfect 10 and you take her home and think you just took home prime Jessica Alba.

The guy is big. He looks like a Rothlisberger in the pocket.  Many of his completions came from being under pressure and having guys in his face.

 

 

Hell, i'm so damaged in my brain by getting behind and having hope for Bryce when drafted even though concerned by his size the being hugely let down that any big QB now looks enticing to me to draft which I know isn't a good mindset

I find it more like now that I have been forced to watch Young so much it isn’t as much of a shock to my senses.  
Desensitized they call it.  

For real, it just looks normal almost now. Where the first game of 2023 I wasn’t sure what I was looking at it was so out of bounds for NFL type play. I literally couldn’t make sense of what I had seen vs Atlanta that first week.

Allar was Top 3 for me entering the season. Now, I have him about 5th. 

He's a 2nd Rounder.

Big guy, strong arm, but man he makes some wild decisions sometimes. His upside is to develop into a Josh Allen type, but he could just as easily be a Paxton Lynch.

He has 4 ints this year and is throwing 71% completetion vs top 25 with a qb rating of 125.  What wild decisions are you talking about?  He is also building off of a pretty good 2023 season which is encouraging to see.

Is this the QB you were comparing to Peyton Manning last weekend?

 

That in itself was a joke!

    • Exactly the type of thing he would have done here. The excuse people were stannin’ so hard claiming he would have looked just as bad. Just not true. 
    • Yes and there aren't 32 starting QBs in the league either. Too many teams and too many games. The NFL has regressed over the years and game quality is lacking. The other leagues are supposed to be farm leagues but it doesn't matter. You just won't have 32 no matter what they do. The move to super athletes playing QB at all levels has lead to this. It used to be those guys played other positions but now they are QBs who can't really QB.  It has a trickle down effect too. OL can't block because they never had to. The fact that in today's game your QB must be able to run at least a little to survive is evidence of this as well. IMO they have ruined the game same as with the NBA. It's been simplified to the point of being boring.  Just look at the top 10 this season. Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) Joe Burrow (Bengals) Josh Allen (Bills) Lamar Jackson (Ravens) Dak Prescott (Cowboys) Jalen Hurts (Eagles) Brock Purdy (49ers) Jordan Love (Packers) Justin Herbert (Chargers) Matthew Stafford (Rams) Once we get to number 5 the stats look like this: 167 262 1,845 63.7 7.0 10 8 65 18 84.5   47.5   10 TDs and 8 INTs??? At number 5??? There was a time not that long ago that he wouldn't even be a starter.   
    • I'm not convinced that the NFL is any better or worse at developing QBs now than they were 20 years ago.  I mean I'm sure there are some developmental issues at play, just not sure it is any different than it has been. The biggest difference IMO is that NFL teams are waaaaaaaay more willing to invest a 1st round pick into a QB now than they were 15-20 years ago.  A guy like Colin Kaepernick would probably be a top 5 pick in 2025, whereas he went in the 2nd in 2011.  Would a guy like Trey Lance go top 3 in 2010?  Hell no.  Look at Russell Wilson - he didn't go until the 3rd round.  The standard for being a 1st round QB has dropped. So it may seem like we're seeing more high-profile busts at the position, but we're also seeing teams reach for QBs way more than they have in the past.  Someone with Anthony Richardson's college resume doesn't go in the top 3 20 years ago.
