What happened to 6’5 QBs?

[VFLCodyGBO]

Seems like we haven’t had a tall QB since Ainge. Is this something teams are going away from? Every time a y’all QB hits the field people seem to talk about strong arms and use the words “NFL body” but you rarely see the height at the position anymore.

Immobile statues are out of style.

Tyler Bray was after Ainge and 6 foot 6

[Giveem6]

Isn't shrout around 6'4?

If you're wondering why our roster looks the way it does credit coach #24 and his gimmick offense for the shorter QBs. Not saying JG can't be good or great but botch didn't like big QBs in the pocket throwing the ball.

 

[BACKDOC]

Guarantano is listed at 6' 4".

The good ones want to play for championships, not here.

Could he make him have a last name of Manning?

 

[CornDontGrow]

When are Walker and Texas Ranger Manning gonna be recruited to the big orange?


(I think Peyton’s kids are Marshall and something else but it’s still early)

 

[The Shooter McGavin]

McDonald’s chicken started making them all 6’5 300lb lineman.

man 2" makes all the difference to some people. Worley, Dobbs, Dormandy are all listed between 6'-3" and 6'-4"

twss?

 

[LouderVol]

twss?

i don't judge.

 

[jarnol32]

Guarantano is listed at 6' 4".

So was Dormady, yet when standing side by side he looked much taller than JG. In truth Jgis about 6-1.

 

[WarMachine]

Too tall, moved to TE, IMO.

Something you wanna talk about? Some frustration there it seems.

The NFL disagrees

I was obviously referring to CFB. The disconnect between what the NFL covets in QB ability and development, and what CFB teams value has been discussed to death.

I had a girl friend once that said 2" make a big difference...

Reminds of something a hilarious old friend who has passed away now told me back in the 80s.

I go to pick him up to go to work the morning after his anniversary, and I asked him did they have a good weekend..He says "Man it was great, my old lady said..Give me twelve inches and hurt me..so I screwed her four times and hit her in the head with a hammer"

To this day that is the hardest I have ever laughed in my life, I literally pulled a muscle on my ribcage 🤣
