Podcasts about qb2

Browns reporter Daryl Ruiter joins Ken and Anthony Lima to break down the quarterback competition, saying Deshaun Watson remains the favorite to start Week 1 in Jacksonville since it's an easier transition from him to Shedeur Sanders than the reverse, though he stresses that Shedeur starting as QB2 wouldn't be a failure given the retooled line and new coaching staff around him. Ken pushes back a bit, arguing there's real pressure on Shedeur to play early since fans want to see what they have, while Ruiter counters that Deshaun's best days are likely behind him regardless of who starts. The conversation shifts to Shedeur's free youth football camp, which Ruiter says drew an outsized, electric reaction from about 500 kids, before the two dismiss Rex Ryan's recent shot at Shedeur's off-field ventures (music, photoshoots, a short film) as him complaining for the sake of complaining. Ruiter defends Shedeur's use of his offseason time as fair game as long as football stays the priority, noting Shedeur has put in real work with teammates this summer.

We start with our overall QB tier thoughts (0:00), then hit the latest news and notes (16:20), including the potential impact of spicing up NFL overtime (18:40). After that, we dive into our Tier 1 quarterbacks (21:48) before breaking down Tier 2 and Tier 3 (23:00), including why Heath has Jayden Daniels in his Tier 2 and why that has people surprised. We discuss Jalen Hurts' outlook and whether Justin Herbert can become an elite fantasy option in Mike McDaniel's offense (31:20), why Brock Purdy and Jared Goff are two of the best values at quarterback (44:28), and the concerns surrounding Caleb Williams and how he stacks up to Jaxson Dart (50:20).

The Carolina Panthers enter 2026 training camp with something they haven't had in years: a settled quarterback room with a rising star at the top. In this Keep Pounding Podcast camp preview, we break down every QB on the 90-man roster heading into camp at Wofford.Bryce Young is coming off a career year — 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns, a franchise-record 448-yard game against Atlanta, and the Panthers' first NFC South title since 2015. Now he's playing on his fifth-year option with extension talks looming. We look back at his 2025 leap, what the second-half splits tell us, and what has to improve for Carolina to go from division winner to contender.Behind him, the Panthers moved on from Andy Dalton and brought in Kenny Pickett on a one-year deal — a younger, more mobile QB2 with a winning record as a starter. And then there's the most interesting UDFA in camp: Georgia Tech's Haynes King, who the Panthers chased hard after the draft with a possible Taysom Hill-style package in mind.

Vikings Training Camp Roster Questions: QB Structure, RB Run-Game Shift, and Key Position Battles — Tyler Forness and producer Dave Stefano preview the Minnesota Vikings training camp by assessing roster question marks and position battles. They discuss a QB room featuring a starter competition between Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy, with Carson Wentz expected as QB2 and Max Brosmer as a developmental QB3. They argue the non-starter between Murray and McCarthy may be traded to avoid distractions. They also debate Kevin O'Connell's strength as a “veteran QB whisperer” versus developing young QBs. They note limited playoff-win experience on the roster. At RB, they defend keeping Aaron Jones and highlight Jordan Mason's fit for more wide-zone concepts under Frank Smith. They focus on WR changes with physical “power forward” Jauan Jennings and potential red-zone benefits, plus Tai Felton's development. Other topics include TE depth and Max Bredeson's role, OL depth/health and Blake Brandel's snapping, a fluid DL rotation with rookies, concern about edge depth and interest in signing Jadeveon Clowney, LB roles for Jake Golday and Ivan Pace's cost, CB2/depth competition, special teams, and safety uncertainty if Harrison Smith returns.

Mark Kaboly doesn't think Keeanu Benton fits in the Steelers plans after this season. Mark thinks Sebastian Joseph-Day will be a good add. Mark is offended that people are questioning if Mason Rudolph is QB2. 

With Geno Smith entrenched as the New York Jets starting quarterback this season, some fans are starting to wonder if Gang Green should be looking to add a more established backup.  Bailey Zappe is currently viewed as the team’s second QB and rookie Cade Klubnik will get every shot to take that job out of camp.  But should a more proven veteran option be on the table? https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/72749944/download.mp3 For a team unlikely to make the playoffs, parting with any assets to deal for a quarterback who will do nothing to change the trajectory of the season would make little sense.  Even if it’s a late-round pick, what could that possibly bring in return.  The Jets would be better off letting their current backups battle it out and hope Klubnik wins the job. However, if Darren Mougey and Aaron Glenn believe their team will make a playoff push and an more experienced backup would be desirable, here are the options they’d be looking at. Cooper Rush: Rush is a free agent who some suggested the Jets may pursue in previous weeks and might be the best of a bad bunch.  The former Cowboy and Raven has a 9-7 record in sixteen career starts. Anthony Richardson: The Colts former first-round pick has been given permission to seek a trade but he’s been terrible as a pro up to this point and the asking price for Richardson is unknown. Jimmy Garoppolo: If Garoppolo is looking to return to the NFL, landing a backup job is the best he could hope for given his injury history. Tanner McCkee: McKee is in a crowded QB room in Philadelphia and a deal would make sense if he were viewed as a possible long-term backup, but the reported asking price of a second-round pick should turn the Jets off if true. Will Levis: A former second-round pick (33rd overall), Levis lost his job to first-round pick Cam Ward after starting just 21 games.  If he can be had for a day 3 pick Levis might be the best available option.  However, like all of the QBs mentioned above, he won’t change the trajectory of the Jets season. JJ McCarthy: Another first-round pick who flopped in Minnesota after missing his first full season due to injury, there are some who believe McCarthy may be available via trade.  But if the Vikings don’t believe they can fix what’s wrong with McCarthy, can anyone? In all reality, the best thing the Jets can do for themselves is to let Smith start the season at the top of the depth chart.  If he were to miss time for any reason, giving those reps to Cade Klubnik to evaluate him as part of the team’s future would be more beneficial than grabbing an injury prone veteran or a failed former pick who will have to start over with the Jets and has already used up valuable years on their rookie deals.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Christopher Carter welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to discuss coach Mike McCarthy's old-school ideas for tight ends Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth. Can a 1990s-style role within the offense work for that duo with Aaron Rodgers at QB and an improved set of pass catchers including DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr., Germie Bernard, Roman Wilson and Jaylen Warren around them? And how capable is the current roster of playing that more physical style of the past? Our duo tackles those questions, then talks QBs and how pivotal this summer could be for Will Howard as he looks to prove he deserves consideration for the QB2 role next to Mason Rudolph and Drew Allar.

A focused look at QB3 The Detroit Lions Podcast zeroed in on undrafted rookie quarterback Luke Altmyer. The Illinois product brings a steady profile that fits what Detroit asks from its quarterbacks. His case touches roster mechanics, scheme continuity, and how the Lions want to survive a Sunday if Jared Goff misses snaps. The first puzzle is numbers. The Lions have not typically carried three quarterbacks on the 53. Recent practice has leaned on the practice squad and the emergency quarterback elevation. That path likely remains in play. Teddy Bridgewater sits as QB2 for 2026. His last outing in a Lions uniform was rough, but his value is clear. He is smart, efficient, and comfortable in the pocket in the way Goff is. That sets the bar for Altmyer. If QB3 mirrors the starter's operation, the offense changes less when called upon. Altmyer's traits fit the offense Altmyer's game wins with anticipation, accuracy, touch, and a willingness to stand in and deliver. He has extensive experience in a pro-style offense and makes NFL anticipatory throws. He protects the ball and rarely puts it at risk when structure holds. The arm is not dynamic and he is undersized. The release is lower and slower than ideal. He must protect himself better. He absorbed some massive hits at Illinois, a byproduct of patience while routes developed behind an uneven offensive line. Those are teachable survival skills. There is meaningful overlap with Goff's profile. Altmyer processes quickly, shows poise, and works the pocket with calm urgency. He can hit the throws the system demands and maintain accuracy on the move. He posted seven game-winning drives late in games and finished second in program history in wins and touchdown passes. He is a cleaner operator than a playmaker, which is exactly what the Lions ask from their quarterbacks. How he sticks in Detroit Altmyer expected to be drafted and carries a clear chip on his shoulder. Detroit liked the makeup. Dan Campbell praised his retention and daily improvement. The staff highlighted his command of calls, shifts, and motions, and that he is not overwhelmed by install. Altmaier chose Detroit in part to work with Drew Petzing and after a positive Senior Bowl week with Marcus Tuiasosopo. The near-term lane is obvious. QB3 via the practice squad with elevations as needed. Win preseason reps by running the offense cleanly. Protect himself. Keep the ball safe. If he meets those checkpoints, he has a real chance to stick in 2026 and position himself for QB2 in 2027. For a Detroit Lions roster built on clarity and cohesion, Altmaier's profile makes football sense. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #lukealtmyer #teddybridgewater #jaredgoff #qb3 #scoutingreport #lionsotas Learn more about your ad choices.

On paper, Goff's 2025 season looked elite— he threw for 4,564 yards and 34 touchdowns. But as we all know, stats don't tell the whole story. The Lions finished 9-8 and missed the playoffs, and we need to talk about why. We're breaking down what actually went wrong on the field. Was it the offensive coordinator? Was it the offensive line? Was it Goff himself?We're also diving into the backup quarterback situation. I'm breaking down why the front office needs to bring in a legitimate QB2 to put some pressure on Goff and keep that competitive fire burning.Lastly, we have a five-year hindsight review of the Matthew Stafford trade. How does that blockbuster deal look for Detroit right now?Drop your thoughts in the comments—do you think the front office needs to bring in a backup QB to push Goff?#DetroitLions #JaredGoff #MatthewStafford #BuffedUpSports #NFL #OnePride

Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price are shopping for dynasty buys at quarterback and running back. This episode looks at Superflex and tight end premium values, focusing on players whose price does not match their upside, role, or long term insulation. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The crew opens with a deep dive into Cam Ward, whose rookie struggles have created a buying window entering year two. With added weapons and Brian Daboll helping shape the offense, Ward gets framed as a young quarterback who could quickly climb from QB2 pricing. They also discuss Deshaun Watson and Daniel Jones as cheaper Superflex swings. Watson carries obvious risk, but his price is nearly free. Jones offers rushing upside, a stable offense, and a clearer runway than many quarterbacks in his range. At running back, D'Andre Swift, Rachaad White, and Travis Etienne headline the buy list. Each brings a different profile, from steady RB2 production to cheap pass catching upside to a potential lead role in a fast paced offense.

How good should the Steelers defense be? The Steelers are the highest-paid defense for the fifth year in a row. New defensive coordinator Patrick Graham has a deep respect for the history of the Steelers defense, but it can't be the Steel Curtain defense. Nick thinks Mason Rudolph and Will Howard are co-QB2.

Garret and Andrew fire up a fast paced round of Booming Bench Bust, putting dynasty favorites into three buckets and forcing clear takes instead of the usual keep trade cut hedging. Garret frames it as a gut check game, and Andrew leans into ceiling and situation, even when it means making uncomfortable calls on big names. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The show opens with a tricky wide receiver trio where Andrew crowns George Pickens as the boom, slots Garrett Wilson as the bench, and tags Chris Olave as the bust based on target competition. Garret counters by calling Garrett Wilson his boom and pushing Pickens into bust territory due to volatility and situational risk. At quarterback, both agree Joe Burrow carries the biggest boom profile, but they split on the bench bust debate between Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert, with Garret worried about Herbert's volume under Harbaugh. At running back, both side with Kenneth Walker as the boom over Breece Hall and Quinshon Judkins, then align again on a second trio by making Javonte Williams the boom and fading Josh Jacobs. Tight end debate follows, with both landing on Sam LaPorta as the bust, while Garret pushes Kyle Pitts as his boom. The episode closes with a fun QB2 swing where Andrew bets on Ty Simpson as the long play boom, while Garret plants a flag on Daniel Jones as a potential career resurgence.

Sixteen years after Tyrod Taylor last took a snap at Virginia Tech, he signed with the Packers to back up Jordan Love, where he'll team up with fellow Va. Tech alum Kyron Drones, as the team looks to replace Malik Willis at QB2. When Taylor finished his time at Virginia Tech in 2010, Drones was in elementary school. Now, two former Hokie quarterbacks bring a new look to the quarterback room in Green Bay, along with Kyle McCord.

Rich, Matt, and Garret kick off their 2026 rookie prospect reviews with the position that breaks the most hearts every year: quarterbacks. The group emphasizes how much draft capital and landing spot shape outcomes, but also why weak classes can create value pockets in Superflex, especially if a QB can buy fantasy points with rushing. They start at the top with Fernando Mendoza, presenting him as the cleanest profile in the class and the safest Superflex bet. The discussion centers on accuracy, ball placement, decision-making, and leadership, with a debate on ceiling. One view sees him living as a reliable QB1 or high-end QB2 type. The other argues he can climb higher if the team build around him hits and the offense keeps evolving. Next up is Garrett Nussmeier, framed as a tricky evaluation because the 2025 tape looks heavily impacted by injury, while the 2024 tape shows a much more live arm and a more confident, pro-style passer. The group keeps coming back to one key point: draft capital will tell the story. If he lands in the right range, he becomes a real swing worth taking in Superflex rookie drafts. They move into Drew Allar as the “looks the part” quarterback that coaches will want to develop. The upside is obvious in the frame and arm talent, but the concerns show up when the pocket collapses and the processing speeds up. The consensus is that he needs time, structure, and the right coaching situation to see if the tools translate. They then cover Diego Pavia, giving credit for competitiveness and production, but making it clear the size limitation creates a massive barrier to draft capital and long-term opportunity. For fantasy purposes, they frame it as the kind of player where any real playing-time window would likely be the sell window. They also hit Taylen Green as the ultimate “tools vs quarterbacking” prospect. The athletic profile is wild and the rushing upside creates fantasy intrigue, but the concerns are about processing, mechanics, and whether he can consistently function as an NFL passer. The takeaway is that he is a pure swing pick, not a stable bet. They close with Luke Altmyer, who gets credit for playing on time, protecting the ball, and being coach-friendly, but is framed as a capped-ceiling profile for fantasy. Even if he sticks in the NFL as a backup type, the upside is limited compared to the quarterbacks who can generate fantasy points with rushing. Start Using the Film Room Today!
