Just picking this list from ESPN which generally tracks with the consensus:

Tier 1:

  • Klubnik
  • Nussmeier
  • Mateer
  • Allar
  • Sellers

Tier 2:

  • Lagway
  • Beck
  • Manning

Through week 3, looking at QBR - to pick a metric that covers passing, rushing, and is opponent adjusted. I know QBR isn’t perfect, but in this case it generally tracks with what we’re seeing:

5 Carson Beck - and he has looked legit good.

27 Mateer who has also looked legit good.

37 Nussmeier has been… alright. Like, he hasn’t been bad, but he’s nowhere near the 1st round pick level we were talking about preseason.

After that?

76 Lagway - ass

88 Manning - ass

100 Klubnik - ass

104 Sellers - … dare I say ass?

111 Allar - ass

Like, I understand there will be some controversy over the specific ranking of those last 5, but that’s not what I care about - I mostly just care about them all being nowhere near the best QBs in football.

That entire group should be thankful that Manning has been that overhyped and that bad because they’re not catching nearly as much heat as they would if he wasn’t in the picture.
