QBS in the Portal as of 11/28

Had one of the lowest air yards per attempt in the country.

2023 the lowest guys in that metric basically had 2 totally different career trajectories - Mertz and Nix

Ewers could probably end up in either of those buckets himself but I don't think he's an NFL draft QB right now. He'd get picked but there's more money for him next year in the college game with the chance to improve his draft stock as well and really cash in.

I think the injury has played into the low air yards. Also, no AD Mitchell or Xavier Worthy stretching the field.

Ewers is not as mobile as they were, so it’s not as if an read option spread will open up his potential.

His arm is also shot from the collar injury.

I rewatched a lot of 2023 Ewers this morning, and it was a lot more downfield to Worthy and Mitchell. Ball definitely had more zip to it as well.

I’ve been watching him and Nuss. Thought they made the most sense.

But his play the last few weeks has been scaring me off. Hoping it’s the injury if that’s the way we lean.

His arm is not shot lol go watch the Michigan game. He had zip then. The abdominal issue he sustained this year is what's preventing him from putting torque in his delivery.

He's not as mobile as Nix but he can scoot

I mean we’re RPO based if that’s what you’re saying or saying he wouldn’t fit here.

Cam might have had 3 designed runs all year and not many read option plays where him keeping it was in the cards.

Ewers is injury prone and it's definitely effected his arm strength this year (collarbone last year, abs this year) plus he's on a bad ankle

The thing that bothers me the most is the turnovers in the red zone. Watching him the past few weeks has been rough

Any reason to think he'd come back?

Just the whispers my friend. Sit very quietly and listen. After all, how can mirrors be real if our eyes aren't? Tea leaves. They want us all to think the sun is hot. I urge you to ask yourself. Have you they touched it"? Think about it.

Hey fellas I know I’m late to the party re: Ewers but we are talking about the Texas QB, right? I thought it was last year of eligibility and on to NFL after this year. Of course I know Arch ain’t waiting another season but what am I missing

you are missing the fact that Ewers is a junior.
