    Randomly popped up on my recommended and I figured you’d have 1000s off subscribers. But not even 1000 surprised me. Great video keep up the work
  • I have to echo the sentiment that this channel is high quality and you blowing up overnight this coming season will be the most predictable outcome of the year
  • Leaving Bailey Zappe completely out of the video is hilarious.
  • you forgot jacoby brissett, who cooked for like 2 and a half quarters against the rams and jets.

    As an extremely biased Bengals fan, I feel like Jake Browning should have been talked about more. Dude was an absolute dawg this season.

    The 3 guys in the thumbnail all had the #15. Just thought that was cool.

    One thing I love to do every year is count how many teams fail to start their QB for a full season, and yes I do include teams who sit starters in the final weekend to rest them for the playoffs, if you don't start your QB for a full year for any reason, it counts. The record for years was 1992 when 20/28 teams failed to start their QB for a full season, of the 8 who could, 1 missed the playoffs, that was Jim Everett and the Rams. Then 2017 happened, 21/32 teams failed to start their QB for a full season. Then the 2020's happened. 2023 really was the year of the Backup QB, because a new record of 23/32 teams did not start their QB for a full season, btw Derek Carr started all of 2023, famous Jameis started in 2022 for a couple games. The teams who did start their QB's for a full year? Buffalo, GB, Washington, Dallas, TB, Philly, Saints, Miami, and Detroit Of those teams that didn't make the playoffs? Washington (they were gonna start Brissett but he got hurt in practice! So Howell finished the year anyway!), and the Saints Which means just like 1992, only 7 teams started a full season with their QB and made the playoffs, tied for the fewest! Tom Brady wasn't kidding that the quality of QB play has dropped off since he retired, granted he played against the easiest division ever, he's not necessarily wrong either. Aside from Mahomes, who else can you say is a guaranteed future hall of famer right now of the active QB's in their prime or rising? I ask this cuz A-Rod is guaranteed and he's close to retirement so guys like him don't count. Considering the SLEW of Good/Great/Hall of Fame QB's in the past 20 years since Brady was active, this is why he's not necessarily wrong. There was Favre and Rodgers on the Packers, Stafford on the Lions/Rams, Rivers, Ryan, the Manning Bros., Big Ben, Flacco in his prime, Brees, Cam, and many more that I'm missing. Rodgers is basically the only one left, and the replacements are leaving a lot to be desired. There are rising stars like Love, but that's just it, they're rising, hopefully. Fun fact, Tyson Bageant as you mentioned was a D2 QB from Shepard College, beat the #1 overall pick from Alabama in Bryce Young and the Panthers. lmao, NFL is weird.

    Joe Flacco was the best QB in the regular season.
