It’s obviously too early to judge any of these guys (except for Stroud maybe) but how rare is it that all top 4 QBs in a draft class come out looking like possible franchise starters? Bryce has arguably been the worst out of the 4, but even if he had a down week against the colts he has little to no help and even then has been getting better from week to week.
Stroud I don’t even think needs to be mentioned in detail. Looking like a top 10 QB as a rookie in the stacked AFC is quite the accomplishment. he just broke the record for yards in a game by a rookie and tied the record for TDs. he’s top 10 in yards and TDs and has a TD-INT ratio of 14-1 which is insanely impressive.
Anthony Richardson’s season has sadly been cut short and I wish him a quick recovery and hope he’s back to full form next season cause DAMN has he been fun to watch. passing was generally fine. 59.5 Cmp%, 577 yards and 3 TDs to 1 INT in 4 games is not as bad as people made him out to be before the start of the season but he was really impressive in rushing with 136 Yds and 4 TDs upping him to 7 total TDs. He’s been showing flashes and was very good in these 4 games but I fear if the colts continue to use him this way this might become another RGIII situation.
…and finally, Will Levis. the amount of clowning that this sub did on the man is unbelievable looking back now, even if I was also on of these people. but after throwing 4 TDs in his debut game and looking solid against the steelers I think he has proven he’s the best QB the titans have on the roster. is he their future? possibly, it’s too early to tell. is he better than tannehill? absolutely.
as for the other QBs… well…
Tyson Bagent has had one good game, against the raiders.
Clayton Tune was really bad last week but facing of against one of the best defenses in the NFL in his very first game certainly didn’t help him so I won’t judge.
Aidan O’Connell was… Ok, I guess? He made rookie mistakes, obviously, but he was an ok game manager I suppose I only watched the bears game.
DTR looked good in preseason, as did a lot of other QBs, but was pretty bad against the ravens, which is possibly the best defense in the NFL so I won’t really judge him on that.
and Jake Haener was suspended 6 games for taking performance enhancing drugs and has not seen any action yet, fuck me.
Yeah, gonna be honest that this sounds like a very lackluster start between Bryce Young’s rough situation and Anthony Richardson having a worrisome injury history already. Levis may stack up some more good games, but no one else mentioned is too noteworthy.
