    It's the first 3 weeks of the season! Like I said originally, its early but many pundits, writers, etc. has him as the early favorite.

    Do you think Lamar is as gifted as Allen? I don't. Do you think Lamar will have as long of a career as Allen? I don't. Do you think Lamar is as good throwing the ball accurately as Allen? I don't. Do you think Lamar is as clutch in the playoffs as Allen? I don't.

    And I like Lamar. Top 10-12 sure. Top 5? Nah

    Just stop. Lamar has been absolute garbage in the playoffs.

    Allen has been the best player on the field in the playoffs. The two aren’t comparable.
    Lamar is having an awesome start, if he keeps it up he’ll be in that tier with Mahomes, Allen and Rodgers.

    You're the guy who thought highly of Davis Mills and still thinks Jimmy G is an elite QB that everyone should want, right?

    Mills and Jimmy G being elite? Lol. Seriously, I thought Mills did some good things today but more so than anything, I think he showed he's not the one.

    I think it's becoming more and more clear that he is and will always be a backup and it's nothing wrong with that. And like I said, the Texans need to go into the Off Season with their #1 need being a Starting QB.

    I think today showed both Jackson and Allen are on equal footing. Unfortunately, Harbaugh's decision making cost the Ravens the game today.

    They are absolutely not on equal footing, Allen made plays to win, Lamar did not

    Are you sneaking Quinn Ewers in with those other QB prospects? I must admit, I only know about the Top 3, Hooker and William's. I haven't scouted Drake Maye.

    Is he good? What does he do that's special?

    I expected you to keep comparing Lamar to the best QB in the game.
    They aren’t close

    We know why you haven’t scouted Maye or Ewers.

    Maye is the best prospect in that entire list. And Hooker is no where near Levis as a prospect, he’s also going to be 26 as a rookie

    Posted this in the draft thread but if Caserio elects to wait until the 2024 draft, what does he do next season assuming he doesn’t roll with Mills?

    Veteran stopgap, 2 year contract. There's also no guarantee whatever QB you might draft this offseason is ready to play Game1 in 2023.

    Not saying it's the right thing, just saying it's a thing.
