Two ACL tears.

Michael Penix Jr.'s injury adversity makes CFP dominance that much sweeter

Penix threw for 430 yards and two touchdowns in Washington's 37-31 win over Texas in the College Football Playoff semifinals.

That's an extreme amount of injuries for a player you're hoping will be your starting QB for the next decade+.



This made me laugh. Michael Jordan once told Julian Edelman not to botch his Super Bowl bet

I don’t think Miami has regretted drafting Tua . I don’t think Cincy has regretted drafting Burrow , nor have the ravens regretted drafting Lamar . All have injury histories. All of these qbs have questions . Hard to get quick processing and accuracy penix offers

I remember Jonathan Allen slid due to injuries right? Something wrong with his shoulders?

It's a crap shoot with injuries. Bryce love came to mind. I thought he would be a steal for us. He never got healthy. He is a little different because he was injured or recovering when he was drafted.

Honestly, with pennix, I think it's two outcomes

1. He balls out and the injuries never bother him.
2. The injury bug follows him and he is out of the league in 5 years.

I hope he has a good career in the AFC. In his first 2 seasons, i won't be surprised if he misses a considerable amount of time. The game speed and players trying to tear his head off will be an issue.
Of course, he could do just fine but I'd prefer he shines elsewhere

Based on your outcome #2, wouldn't you prefer we pass on him? Not suggesting you want him in the first place but....

i hope washington does,nt take him because it,s so risky

I would go daniels at this point.

Tua n Lawrence suffered season ending injuries 4 years in a row while in college?

 

[Skin'EmAll]

I wouldn't be mad at that. There's been so many valid points for and against a QB at 2-4...I'm excited how things progress!

lawrence had,nt ever missed a game before the last one in college,pro or high school.

Yeah, I could see either scenario happening. What scares me is how much of a possibility is it the latter happen.

Adrian Peterson was seriously injured a couple times in college and the pros. Yet none of his injuries slowed him down or took away from his skill-set. Kirk Cousins was a virtual iron man for a decade until this year getting hurt w/o being touched. Robert Griffin could almost magically find divots in the field to twist his knee up and separated his shoulder trying to drop his hat n run over a DB.

Some players get hurt, come right back the next year good as new. Some players seem like they never get hurt. Some players you can set a clock by them getting hurt.

i they are not elite qbs then why draft them high ? savior type the guy who rides in on his white horse, carries the franchise on his back , elevates players around him to all pro level , leads the team to multiple championships no matter what .

As you know I don't participate in conversations that use "savior" when referring to QBs. I do support your right to call it as you see it though!

 

[Stymietee]

I am beginning to think this is the best qb class I can remember.
Pennix looked like he was a pro bowl qb last night.

Daniels is just ridiculous with his play making and Williams can make any throw.

I am 99% sure our pick is a qb. Maye might even be in that conversation.

Maye should absolutely be in the conversation! He's no slug.

 

[Stymietee]

Huh. Are you talking about Sam?

No, referring to a new QB taken in the draft.

 

[Stymietee]

Penix looked pretty damn dynamic last night against Texas. His deep ball accuracy is next level.

Yep! He was originally my first choice and I would still take him over Williams but not over Daniels.

 

[Stymietee]

Nice 1st half.

If the new regime keeps Howell n drafts a QB with their first pick. It'll be to let him play till they feel the rookie is ready.

No HC in his right mind is letting Howell mentor anyone after the season he had.

Exactly, teams have to get away from that old "sink or swim" one-size-fits-all BS! I'd also keep Brissett for backup and mentoring purposes.

That's one way to look at it. Another is more impressive, character/ resiliency builders!
