Microwave the Steelers membership Speedy. We’ll take you backCaleb looked great imo. speedy will be upset![]()
Short of maybe Bo Nix, Caleb looks easily the best QB of the lot so far in pre-season (as we knew). Footwork, confidence and has a serious arm on him. That analysis video is a great watch. Exciting times for you lot.
No expert , but I was impressed with admittedly only brief highlights I watched of Mc Carthy. I’ll also admit of all the top QB taken he’s the one I had the most doubt about so this bodes well for himInteresting you say Nix, not really the thread for this discussion but here we go anyway, wasn't that impressed, he just looks clunky, whether its his feet not ever being set correctly when he throws (wide base/narrow base) , lack of trust in the pocket (back pedalling and drifting constantly not stepping up in it) or the ball coming out his hand like a duck on the run. Thought McCarthy was much more polished and impressive. Clearly Williams and JJ the best to my eye this weekend.
Maybe Nix can be one of those ugly looking QBs who just gets it done though. Been a few of them in past.

Interesting discussion about Nix for me as I’m an Oregon fan also , and I was almost convinced that while he had solid mechanics and was smart, he wouldn’t have the athleticism to be an NFL success.Yeah agree McCarthy was really impressive. Add him to my two above. Dime after dime, even when people said he couldn't throw at Michigan...
Think Nix was more surprising for me really. Showed an ability to make plays when he had to, decent set of wheels and released the ball pretty quick in most cases with some solid throws. I think his pocket presence was a knock on him pre-draft, probably something coaching can improve over time. I also just spent the last couple of days combing through the Eagles game and suffering with Kenny Pickett footage so...

This also bodes well for him
